When I look at the nice Buildings you did for him, it's clearly your own fault that he demands more.

Absolutely terrific work. It's like I'm there... that boat is such a nice touch.  o_o

Thanks for the kind comments Gents -I am open to future offers!
Grant - the boat is The Nina (Heller 1/87th scale I think) It has been 'upscaled' to 25mm by removing & replacing items such as the steps,rails etc It becomes more of an inshore/rivercraft then. By adding cargo it give the boat scale, weight and hides any out of scale bits/holes that are around.

I don't, I fear Matthew Hopkins could arrive at any moment in idylic places like these. ;)

I hope you won't mind that I'll 'steal' your idea of 'upscaling' Nina/Pinta kits. Hunting down "Käpt'n Blaubär" ship kits became increasingly hard theses days.

Glitzer- please do steal these ideas(pm me if you want any more info) I am working on converting another Nina kit to an early yacht/pleasure boat & upscaling The Santa Maria
