Default RE: trying to get started

It is not easy to build a new mold set for one of these combat models. The Prinz Eugen took me over 200 hours in molding time. That is why these boats are so hard to find.

There are a few individuals who garage build the combat models but again the time it takes to make a mold set really eats up the profit on making these complex ships. So garage builders will tend to focus on more profitable ventures.

As far as I know, Swampworks is for sale and Battlers connection is reorganizing, so it may be a while before either of them are taking orders again.
