Finished the repairs off in the river boat. Needed new rigging, a touch up with some paint, couple of details here and there and a sail. It’s not really accurate with regards to rigging etc but it’s a gaming piece rather than a model (if that makes sense).

Shame I haven’t got a river wide enough to use it on 

[gamer Mac]

lovely neat job
Sounds like a new project for you , build a river?
I could do with some ideas to steal

[Elk101]

Very nice indeed. What about your Thames board? Could you incorporate that set up into an Imperial port?

[Silent Invader]

Nicely done - the rigging is good: simple but effective 

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks chaps

I'm thinking either two thirds or three quarters of a terrain board would be land and the rest being water so it could either represent a river bank or the coast. If I build enough then they could be placed next to each other to represent a wide river. If I had enough space then a blank board could go in between to make it even wider

Nah, it doesn't fit what what I've got in mind for the Oldhammer stuff unfortunately.

We all know what you will do about that.. how wide an oldhammer river board are you actually making then? 

Its a nice boat to

how many more boats do you need to make to go on/in/under your new river oldhammer board

[voltan]

Looks good, will it be getting a cannon-ish refit, or is that for future shipping?

[Grumpy Gnome]

Brilliant boat! I love it! Brilliant work on the Empire troops too, both the ones on the boat and the archers in the previous post.

[Bloggard]

excellent 

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks again

Was thinking a couple of small, pedestal mounted guns, one on either side near the front.

Dunno yet

[Mason]

Nice tub, mate.
 


I have got one of those 'Sigmar' figureheads from the AoS boat thingy lurking about somewhere if you fancy incorporating that into it...?

[PhilB]

Looking good! Great woodgrain on that deck. Do you have more in-progress photos somewhere?

Is the main material wood, or XPS foam?

[BaronVonJ]

Needs a paddlewheel and at least a riverboat gambler.

[OSHIROmodels]

Cheers all

If I make another, larger one I’ll give you a shout

No wips I’m afraid and it’s mainly balsa wood.

no

[PhilB]

Balsa - so very, very similar to my recent efforts. Looks great!

On a side note, for a future project: when you have a raised sterncastle, like on this ship, the tiller is almost invariably on the lower level, on the main deck level.
