The introduction of plastic in the mid-20th century revolutionized the world of model shipbuilding. Plastic model ship kits were cheaper, easier to assemble, and allowed for greater detail and accuracy. This led to a decline in wooden model ship kits, as plastic models became the preferred choice for hobbyists and enthusiasts.
Today, model ship kits are available in a wide range of materials, including wood, plastic, and metal. Wooden model ship kits are still popular among traditionalists, while plastic kits offer a more affordable and convenient option. The level of detail and accuracy in modern model ship kits is also unparalleled, with many kits replicating famous historical ships with astonishing precision.
