I scratch-built one a few years back. Never finished it, but it is still playable:


Cultists on the river steamer Glorie by burgundavia, on Flickr

Base is 1/2" pink foam with laminate countertop for the wood surface. Cabin and paddleboxes are card. Please excuse the terrible picture, it was taken with my old camera. I appear to have no recent pictures.

If I knew how to do the photo thing I'd do  it, if you want to see it I'll take it to WH on Thursday.

yes yes you're all very competent  :)





Does anyone have a painted example of this model. I'm thinking white for the buildings, grey for the funnel/paddle casings. Black for the hull?

Then dirtied down
