Hi all,
been a while since last I posted...been working on Christmas castles and a couple of C.S.S./U.S.S. Atlanta inspired casemate style ironclads...
I am still using foamcore, cardboard, plastic card/tube and household odds and ends to scratch build these

I still need to weather this one, but am waiting until i finish it's running mate to do them both at same time.
Thanx for lookin!!

Beautiful overall along with lovely details.

WOW, nicely DONE. Excellent detailing on that scratchbuild.

A couple of questions: How did you do the rivets? And what did you use for the cannon?

Great looking model and I love all that the detail.

Thank you Everybody!!..
the scale I would guestimate is 20-28mm compatable...i'll post a pic tomorrow when i get home with a figure onboard and you can tell me...
here is a pic of the monitor style units with a 28mm skeleton

....and this monitor is just a little over maybe a third of the size of the casemate

That monitor only has one crewmember! That really IS a skelton crew!!

Honestly though, both those ships are just a bit good!
