Following on from Hollowhornbear's "Spranther" - http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=17007.msg169400#msg169400
and SteamBoatPhils's BattleSpringer - http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=10372.msg96873#msg96873


I thought I'd have a go at a early Monitor / Ironclad / Gunboat Springer...
