The proprietor of Wilhelmshavener Verlag announced a Model of the France at a fair some years ago. But as this is a dying Company, I took it for a bluff. There is no 200/250 version of this great liner. It would be a marvel

TS Israel is a small liner by Wilhelmshavener, but of very simple and vintage design, not re-worked since the end of the 1950s. They also include the Bremen (1959), Europa (1966), Berlin (1955), United States, Olympia. Only the Berlin (1980) and Kong Harald have been added since the 1950s. The Horizon, published in the 1990s, is in fact a Van Kampen Model. That means only three passenger ships have been addded in 55 years! Ironically, my dad used to build some of those in his childhood. The graphics and style are charming, but not really up to my standard. You have to make substantial changes to bring about a good model. If I had to do it again, I would now substitute major elements like the bridge front where the print is very inaccurate and the shaping problematic no matter how fine your craft is. Nonetheless, I like the model of this mini-Zim liner.

The Galaxy by Van Kampen is a very huge cruise ship, my second biggest after QM2. I just added deck chairs around the pool areas at that time. That was pre-QM2 when I built around 800 ones and went nearly nuts doing so. My major alteration with this kit was the magrodome area. The kit just offered a blue bit of cardboard. I construced each panel of the retractable magrodome plus all the interior decoration and furniture. That was the first try-out, later applied for QM2´s magrodome and Mauretania´s Verandah Cafe for furniture and plants.
