The renewed naval modeling kit in wood of the famous Spanish ship of the line Santa Ana at scale 1:84, manufactured since 2022, cannot be missing from any modeller's collection of faithful ship replicas. Our modelers friends have always asked for it to come back to our warehouses. The faithful miniature replica of this fundamental ship in the Battle of Trafalgar is aimed at fans of this hobby with an expert level of skills for the construction of this historic scale model.
The modeler will be able to find in this new limited edition of the kit high quality parts such as solid wood and basswood plywood cut by precision laser, brass photo-etched sheet with details such as lanterns, railings or details of the cannons, sails with cotton fabric -ready to be placed-, cotton threads and, as a gift so that the model is perfectly exposed, like a artwork that it is, a wooden exhibition base with nominative metal plate.
There is a DVD for computer (Windows and Mac) with completely redesigned instructions: clarifying step-by-step photographs, as well as demonstrative videos with some of the steps more important. Printed instructions are not included. Remember that you can also download the instructions for free on the product sheet of this model on the Artesanía Latina website.
With this model of the Santa Ana, you can represent the appearance and artillery of the Santa Ana correctly in the battle of Trafalgar. The crowned rampant lion figurehead is a new design. The new artillery, corrected in scale and now much more detailed including photo-etched parts, has the howitzers that the ship carried in Trafalgar. The previous metal boats have been replaced by wooden construction, more realistic.
Once assembled, the model of the Santa Ana measures 46.45'' (1180 mm) length, 34.25'' (870 mm) height and 18.11'' (460 mm) width. Its design by means of false keel and frames brings its assembly closer to that of the real ship.
