[nervisfr]

Thank you guys.

Back from holidays but still no time to return on the miniature shipyard 

[DintheDin]

Ok, we are here, sitting in front of our computer desk, ready to se your progress!

Nothing new on board, except i found a new Playmobil boat .....for nothing (0,50 €). 

But it's a Drakkard  !



Don't know what i'll do with it : A Drakkard ?, A Roman merchant ship ?

Cheers

It could work for your Nordic OGAM project, all viking love to sail, even the dead ones.

i think is out of scale for the 28mm if i take the Drakkard option. or i have to change the figurehead ?
comparison scale with a 28mm BTD

I think that if you elevate the deck, put options for more oars and make a smaller figurehead of your own, it will be a fine drakkar!
Cheers!

Spaceship Drakar 1...

i have dissambled the boat .
I have to scratchbuild a new figurehead to resize down the boat to 28mm.

thank you for your support DintheDin.
i'll create a new topic about it

Ha, when your work with the galley inspired me to buy one too, I picked up the Viking ship as well
Curious to see what you do witht this one.

Oh and yeah, I came to the same conclusion of scratchbuilding a new figurehead.. which is a shame as I kinda like this one
