It is a little about me:
my name is Tatyana, I am 31 years old. I am engaged in assembly of wooden models more than 5 years. For this period 4 ships have been assembled, 3 of which have been presented. I admit that modeling is only a hobby in free time in which nobody trained me. I love any sets for assembly very much so there are also models of
cars 1/8, 1/10 at home. But from wooden models the stage coach and a section of the ship – the two models which I have initially decided to leave for myself for memory.
However, there is a reason that I need to sell them. Guarantee period of my car came to an end and I decided to change it on a new car. That is why I need for money. Sale of the section of the ship won't cover all monetary need, however will accelerate purchase of the car unambiguously. With huge grief I should sell my creation of hands and souls. Therefore, I want so much that the section of the ship will come to hands of the collector who won't make of it a toy for children or acquaintances, and will use as historical model of transport!
I will pay delivery by myself in any point of the world. I make thrifty use of such things, especially when they are made my own hands therefore I guarantee safety and quality of packing. As well as fast delivery.
Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any question any time.
