Welcome to MODELBOUWENZO.NL

In English 'modelbouwenzo' means modeling and so, for the only reason all other domain names I want to use were registered yet.
Far far before internet I build a lot of plastic kits with too much glue and paint. The models were varied, from tanks and cars to planes and helicopters. For many years they were placed in my room, but they are all gone now. After a break of more than 20 years I started all over again, first reading several forums (see links).

Because of the various skills and builds I make some difference between woodmodeling ("houtsnuiven" = "sniffing wood") and modeling with plastic.

Wooden Ships

 

King of the Mississippi
My first kit was a model of the paddlesteamer
King of the Mississippi (scale 1:80 - Artesania Latina).
Length = 66 cm. Some pictures of the build of this beauty.

Bon Retour
My second ready build a small French shell fishingboat, the Bon Retour . Some pictures of the build.

Chinese Jonk
My present projects,  two Chinese piratejunks, one out the box and one scratchbuild.

Plastic modeling
Quite different than wooden modeling, but both are interesting.

 

Ford GPA Jeep
An amphibian vehicle used in WWII, the
Ford GPA Jeep. And some pictures of the build of it.

More than 10 years ago I build a Harley Softail  
My new project, a Shmira MUTT, an Israelian Defence vehicle (IDF). Some pictures of the build.  

I just started this site, I hope you will return soon to see improvements and new subjects.
