Iron barque

(1/7) > >>

Positive:
25 feet to 1 inch scratchbuilt.     Masts, spars and rigging, 100% metal.    Completed a few days ago.    This is a merchant ship.   The ports are just decoration, they do not open, they do not conceal guns. This type of model is very much sought after by collectors, but for some reason, they are rarely modelled!

Another nice model . There is at least one iron sailing ship wreck outside Port Stanley and one accessible at low tide

raflaunches:
Beautiful workmanship  :-))


The ship in question in Port Stanley is the SS Lady Elizabeth. If you look for my thread on my detachment to the Falklands you’ll be able to see some pictures of her.

Positive:
I have visited the hulk of the Lady Elizabeth a number of times in 198/83 - Bob

Footski:
Another beautiful model Bob. Your sails and rigging put mine to shame, but I am improving......I think....
