I'm happy to show you a third model belonging to our 1/600 scale Age of Sail ships - this time, an aggressive 3rd rate Ship of the Line, modelled after blueprints of a real warship dating back from early 1700s. Model kit's hull is made of high quality resin, while masts and sails are white metal cast - just 11 parts in total! Kit is completed by a Portuguese naval flags sheet – although we have an ever growing list of ensigns for up to 12 different nations.

It's been a long, hard production process plentiful of unexpected issues, certainly; but now it's finally here with us, and I'm so happy for it! We are still awaiting packaging boxes to be printed, but it's a matter of just a few days; so you can already pre-order right now your ship of the line (https://minairons.eu/en/1-600-scale-ships/1123-1600-ship-of-the-line-8436545322406.html) while awaiting boxes to come. Delivery is expected to start on June 1st.

Although scaled at 1/600, this model is still compatible with your 1/450 PP ships, albeit using it as a 4th or even a 5th rate ship, rather than a 3rd rate one.
