This one is actually a conversion made from two Playmobil bulk ships.

Only one of them is a model ship:

My god man! Are you insane!

That is an awesome ship. I love the detailing and your photoshop work is excellent.

No way, you've taken a real ship and shrank it.

Amazing.

What with this & your western buildings, thats an outstanding first days membership of the LAF. Long may it continue.

That´s because it is no photoshop work. I took the photos in situ in our local harbour.

That's crazy talk!

Seriously, am I going to have to drive to all the places I depict in gaming now just to have good pictures.

I'll second that. By the way, did you check out this guys (I'm assuming here) blog? If you like pretty girls and are struggling when painting fleshtones like me, don't - it'll just ruin your day and make you want to crawl into your bed to sob.

Amazing stuff, I'm having another of those moments when I think that I'm just ruining perfectly good miniatures when there are people who can actually paint

Top work Michi - very inspiring!

Stunning.

Can you still get the Playmobil base... ?

I love the idea of your taking pics of your model ship next to all those real ones. Try that in a British dockside and you'd probably get arrested. Or beaten up. Or both.

I checked as soon as I read it.

Ebay & Toy'R'Us etc have it for around £35-40 brand new. But you need 2.

Keep a lookout at the carboot sales.

Just what your Geezer layout needs next - a nice old Wapping Dockside with freighter...
