sloop dark lady
« on: 27 March 2015, 09:17:28 AM »
here is the sloop that I realized these days unpretentious I have no naval designer talent (I had never done things like that before ...)
the sails are made with linen cloth soaked with diluted glue
the shell is cardboard and balsa and some acastillage for ship model

yes actually it lacks a crew, but redoubt is slow to send my sailors. Maybe it makes them cross the Channel by swimming. but lead and it did not float very well lol lol. I joke I know it's almost salute and must be pretty busy

that is received. and I took the opportunity to do some advertising for "redoubt".
Serious, received within 15 days and I'm in France.
for miniatures, they are a bit confusing at first glance, many joint line but at least we see the good and no harm in removing ...
they paint easily and are very pretty in the end.
I know I have not yet finished the bases, but I still do not know how I'm doing.
