I think it's really cool. What is it for? Are you going to cast them?

I think it's freakin' amazing.

Is it a kit or scratch built? If scratch built, it is awesome.

It tempts me to restart painting my 1/1200th collection of Napoleonic ships

She's a beaut. I assume from your TMP moniker that this will be a 15mm offering. That's going to be impressive!

Prevailing Winds04 Apr 2008 6:37 p.m. PST

Very cool Jim!

Ships of the line strike quite the imposing figure in 15MM and who can resist haveing one around?

15MM is a show-stealer scale for sure! It is so exciting to see other large 15MM ships out there with an air of authenticity as opposed to the myriad of pirate galleons out there.

I have a pair of ships-of-the-line i use at conventions too! (see SAILPOWERGAME.com for pictures as i do not have a flickr accout)

Right now i have the 104 gun HMS Victory built from an old Heller kit, and the 50 gun 4th rate HMS Leopard that i built from scratch from my old childhood bunk-bed .

I am reworking another victory hull to make a French SOL so the Victory can reasonably play.

Even the 50 gun Leoopard clears a swath on the board as players flee in all possible directions. The Victory usually does not play less it completly tilt the battle in favor of the royal navy :)

We are currently casting a 38 gun frigate and we may try haveing a pair of 38's battle the Victory.

So are you going to make an adversary for your new beauty?
