I may have got slightly carried away…

You may have recreated a Saxon’s nightmare.

Progress stalled while a new floor was installed in my study, and at the same time I got promoted which has meant work has been busier than normal, so my energy and time for modelling has diminished. Nonetheless, I did manage to get a base coat of paint on last weekend, and last night found and ordered some figures who I hope might make suitable crew for the waterline versions.

Gidday Jon, they look rather sleek ships. Will they all have the same figurehead or do you have others to substitute for them?

     And that's a rather interesting desk ornament behind them.     Regards, Jeff.

Hmm, good question. I suspect the figureheads will depend whether paint gives them sufficient character or not. I can always claim the Jarl wanted all his fleet to look similar…

 

I presume you’re then referring to the gallows rather than the kona mitre box? I’ve subscribed for a kickstarter for a border reivers minis game, and a gallows seemed a suitable (if macabre) terrain piece. Rescue the captive sort of game.

Congratulations on the promotion, and the boats look quite good also.

Watching with interest.  Just came back from Norway and stumbled across this in a marina in Alesund.  They were all fabulous looking boats though hard to believe that they were as seaworthy as they must have been, given that freeboard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Particularly good job with the sails BTW
