"Titanic model"

Titanic model. Honestly, I have to say that the model is terrible and looks cheap; it’s not worth the money absolutely, The upper promenade decks—all the windows and doors—are just stickers on plywood. Seriously? just stickers for that price. Along with the kit, they push you to buy a lighting set, which I did, but how can you light up the ship’s superstructure when all the windows and doors on the upper decks are just stickers on plywood? They could have approached it creatively and made the promenade decks with realistic openings. The hull overlays aren’t even plywood but paper, which tears when you try to sand it. Moreover, they didn’t publish negative reviews on their page, I wrote same review there never appeared, only positive reviews. Even with free delivery they are cheating, on the main page is shows EU delivery free from 150eur which is not true because same country the consider like rest of the Europe (Lithuania like example) so finally you will pay full delivery price. I do not recommend purchasing any model from Occre.

"Passionné de modélisme naval depuis mes…"

Passionné de modélisme naval depuis mes 20 ans (j'en ai 60 aujourd'hui), j'ai réalisé sur plans plusieurs modèles réduits navigants ou non (voilier Cédar4, chalutier St-Elme, chalutier Boulogne Etaples etc..). Avec OCCRE j'apprécie aujourd'hui la complétude des kits ! il ne manque rien dans les plus petits détails ! La précision des découpes des pièces en bois est assez exceptionnelle, bravo ! Les plans et notices en couleur de grande qualité sont très agréables à utiliser et de grande précision, enfin, le soin dans le conditionnement des différents éléments dans la boîte est également à souligner.
C'est avec un immense plaisir que j'avance actuellement (à mon rythme, je suis en retraite :-) ) de la construction de L' ENDEAVOUR. BRAVO et GRAND MERCI !!

"Gone down hill, it's complete rubbish now!"

Let me start by saying I built 5 large scale occre boats since 2021 and 3 more very large scale boats from different companies. This way I can compare all of the aspects.
The boats I built from occre in correct order
1: HMS Terror
2: Santisima Trinidad
3: Montanes
4: Prinz Eugen
5: HMS Victory [ refunded - more details below ]

+ 2 other large scale ships from different companies I am not going to name just for comparison to Occre.

#1 In just less than 2 years Occre raised price of Santisima Trinidad and Montanes by £200 [ originally £350 and £550.

#2 Every single model was missing so many items, A LOT of items missing. I know Occre says you can request anything you need for free. These items shouldn't be missing anything in a first place! It takes over 2 weeks for items to arrive to UK! Sometimes you can't do anything other than waiting 2 weeks.
I requested 6 items for Montanes, 2 weeks later package arrived with completely different items, I thought I requested wrong items so I checked my emails and I requested correct items. I requested same correct items again and 2 weeks later once again wrong items. I just gave up! 4 weeks of waiting for correct parts.

#3: low quality items. Occre used to be on a cheaper side which price matches the quality [ not bad but not great ] so £300 large scale boat and not the best parts. Now it's extremely overpriced and quality is even worse with even more items missing!

#4: Very bad drawings and manual
Every single model and faults and mistakes in their drawing, sometimes major faults and mistakes in drawings! I have master degree in engineering and my degree was to draw crane and engines and so on.
Their drawings are bad, made by someone who has no clue how to do drawings! same goes for manual, just confusing, look at this book then this book and then this book!

#5 False advertising and banning people
Occre claims that every single models comes with free tutorial videos on YouTube.
Every single models has maybe first 5 videos and then it stops, not a single model is finished. this is what you get and then they just abandon it!
If you question this you will get banned because not allowed to say the truth!

#6 Extremely overpriced HMS Victory
I purchased this just to prove low quality and extreme overpricing!
I opened the box, same wood as they use on all models, same manual same drawings with tons of mistakes, once again counted all the items which took me hours and just so much missing it's crazy as this is £1300 boat [ not large scale ] and returned it as this proved point as this is worth maybe £500 at push. you paying extra £700 for "limited edition".
Once again Occre has abandoned this model on youtube tutorials!

TLDR:

Low quality models and materials, confusing manuals, bad drawings, tons of items missing, items don't fit together, lots of sanding and adjusting, lowest quality threads and extreme overpricing!

P.S.

If you are thinking to buy wooden model ship boat whether it's large scale or not, do yourself favour and buy it from different company. If you are not sure which company visit forums and you will find out.

Remember, rather pay bit more and have amazing quality and nothing is missing rather than trying to save bit of money and have constant headache!

Wouldn't recommend, wouldn't buy a single boat from Occre!

"Manque voile"

Bonjour, je suis en train de faire le kit Brigantin et il manque des poulies ( on peut en racheter), et une voile (pas de voile de secours ni même tissus pour la confectionner soi-même.

"Muy mejorable."

Lo que parecía un proyecto relativamente sencillo se ha ido convirtiendo en una pesadilla etapa por etapa por la calidad de los materiales y algunas instrucciones poco claras.

"Baue die Revenge"

Baue die Revenge, ein sehr schönes Modell. Preis/ Leistung sind ok.
Einige Teile müssen komplett selbst gesägt/ geschliffen werden.
Ansonsten gewohnt gute Anleitung, aber nichts für Neueinsteiger!
