Post by: carojon on September 16, 2020, 07:39:38 AM

Further fun cutting and gluing as Spanish and French sloop/corvette options are added to the collection.

Plus work has commenced on the planned inclusion of some 64-gun and 80-gun options modelled on the generic 74-gun model from Warlord.

With careful cutting and application of liquid cement the final model can be fairly straightforward to do.

Your models when finished are real works of art!

Thanks for the comments chaps. The 64’s & 80’s are nearly done with the painting side, so I expect to have them rigged and finished in a week or two.
