Description

The Golden Oil

The Golden Oil is a ship which featured in the tenth series of the Adventure of Tintin. Owned by the Golden Oil company, the ship is used to refuel other ships throughout the story. However, during an expedition, the Golden Oil company refuse to provide Captain Haddock and Tintin any fuel. Tintin is forced to be as creative as possible, to find a way to transfer the fuel from the Golden Oil to his own ship, the Aurora.

The Golden Oil Model Ship

The range of sailing ships featured in the Adventures of Tintin is iconic. These adventures can now be relived with a pre-made model of the ship from the expedition. The sail plans and fittings are exact replicas of the original. Tintin’s sailing ship model combines a traditional hull shape with a noble wooden configuration style. The parts are designed and cut to meet a high standard of quality. Once made, the hull is sanded and smoothed. To finish the prefabricated model, several coats of varnish are applied to achieve an immaculate finish.
