Glad to see all the peaked interest in the thread. Shipyard does their kits in 3 types.
They produce them in booklet form much the same as other card kit mfg's, 1/96 scale.
Then you have the up graded version 1/96, which is in the large clear envelope, the sheets
are separated, sails can be included and a laser cut frame. If I am building a full colored
card version of their kits in 1/96, these are the one's I try to find. Granted they do cost more, about double than the booklet version. Then you have the full laser cut kit that comes 1/72 with everything needed inclusive to to build the vessel. Granted, you add the color. Oh and then you have the Plan Books, and there are 2 versions of it as well. 1/96 or 1/72 from the plans.
Do not recommend these unless you have done a few scratch builds. But, if you are willing, a detailed piece can be had. They also do in a super set that includes laser cut parts. These booklets can range from $50.00 to $100.00 f/the Super version. Of course they do more than ships.
