This thread is filled with gorgeous eye candy and mind crippling gribblies.

Great stuff.

Who makes the boat?

[chicklewis]

Very lovely paint and concept !!

Who makes that very nice launch, please??

[Captain Blood]

It’s a Quaycraft 1/48 Scale 20ft motor cutter with clinker hull and transom stern, from www.model-dockyard.com (Price GBP 15.80 + VAT).
Quaycraft produce a huge range of ships’ boats in every scale from 1/192 to 1/24 and across many periods. They're highly detailed and beautifully produced resin models with brass fittings, and not much more expensive than equivalent wargames models. (Except similar wargames products tend to be pretty poor quality in comparison  ).

These are beautiful scale models designed for serious model ship enthusiasts. To this end, they are complete, not waterline models. So you have to sand the bottom down if you want to use them on the tabletop – which is what I’ve done with this one, although it seemed a crying shame to sand away so much wonderful detail… I’ve also left out the very nice inboard seating in favour of the practicalities of standing figures up inside the craft.

Model Dockyard by the way, stock a whole load of different ranges of scale ships, boats, fittings and accessories (I got the lifebelt from there too) and were extremely pleasant to deal with. And quick.

Now that IS a top tip-off.
 

Thank you, Cap'n!

Actually, I just cut and pasted that from my LPL6 entry from 2012, so not sure if they're even still there. But probably it's much the same...

I've been following your GoT project but didn't know you dabbled in unspeakable stuff like this.  Really sweet models all around and the boat is beautiful.  The cheesed line on the bow when it was for your Germans was a nice touch; Why did you take it away?

It reappeared on the quayside for one of the Deep ones to ponder in my recent LPL10 entry

Missed this, fantastic painting.
Where did you get the brilliant signs from?

[Captain Blood]

The notices I made up in Word.
The old ads - just did a Google image search for 'old New England advertising signs'... 
Cut and pasted a few of the signs I found into a Powerpoint slide, printed them out on matt photo paper, cut them out, tore them up a bit, stuck them to the wall and weathered them using washes.

Something fishy going on here..............

Always beautiful work!

That scenery is fabulous as is the miniatures!  Love the pushpin capstan!  Are these for gaming or show?

[Captain Blood]

Thanks. Just for the LPL, although if I get a chance to include them in a game, I will.

That looks amazing!
