Here is GHQ's Micronaut Napoleonic line 1/1200 scale 18 gun brig. This is a very detailed mold. The only additions I have made are the stern boat davits with mounted boat and a scratch built bowsprit, jib and spritsail.

Beautiful work Vol! Very sharp indeed.

I love the last shot especially, with the light glinting off the water, it's very picturesque.

Extra nice. The small ships are fun, aren't they?

Just seen this thread Vol.
I just love your smaller ships. I don't know but my brigs look like small two mast SOL. Yours look like fast racing ships. They look as if they would out-run most ships they come across.
Well done Vol
Be safe

Queen Catherine,
Actually it is tan thread. My camera lightens it up too much. I buy fly tying thread for my rigging now. It is available in a multitude of thicknesses and colors. It doesn't "fuzz" over time and best of all it's cheap. The running rigging on this ship is .006 thickness.
