Very nice. Where did you get your ships ornamanets, the wheel etc?

Eureka I'd say Nick.

Very nice Fuzzy - pity this is a Mexican thing.  :(

Is there a linky to past events?

Yes Eureka for the ships rails and wheels and one of the gratings.

My cannons are from Old Glory and Eureka miniatures. My pirate figures are all Old Glory and Eureka.

I have a heap of other bits to add like blocks, anchors etc. which I picked up from a specialist nautical modelling shop in Melbourne called "Float a Boat"

Cheers

Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly
down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red
Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture,
torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals.

Thanks for the nice comments  :D

I am travelling at the moment but will have some more updates soon. I also have the mermaid figure head but haven't decided which ship to put it on yet.

Cheers
Fuzzy

Back again with an update. The first two boats have completed the major construction work. Now it's the main paint job followed by the rigging and sails.

Enjoy!
