Title: My "East Indianmen Merchant" ship build
Post by: Redmist1122 on January 21, 2015, 03:50:53 AM

This is my second of the Old GLory ships I'm building.  The firt one was my "Black Cutlass" or renamed as the "Black Maria", keeping up with ghost ship image. Here is my WIP of the new ship:

Next I will be adding up ratlines then the sails.

I like the look of the ship.
Any photos of your first ship?

@ KGatch113 - The decks on the bigger ships of the Old Glory line will accomodate the bigger scales.  I have a mixed of a variety of figures from different manufactors and all seem to work well.  Lesson learned is to place them on smaller fender washers (how I based mine) so more can fit comfortably on the decks without overlapping each other.

@ Marine 0846 - Here are a few pics from my Big B-Day Pirate game a few months ago.  The figures are the undead guys from Old Glory. Again, I made a few modifications to the ship to fit more crew.
