Very nice as usual, you are a hard-worker…

Now I'm working in some islands, next week I will publicate in anchorage.

Regards,
Julián.

What a beautiful job! I love the addition of the running rigging, it's something I've been meaning to try but seems a bit daunting.

Beautiful work again Vol. How does she look size-wise next to your GHQ 98? Do they look like they are the same class of ship, or is there too much difference?

Thanks James, Rory, Ryan, and Julian.

James,
Since I lift the hulls of the other brands to match Langton's blocky too high models, they match quite nicely. I added a new post to my blog comparing the 98 gun ships. Here is a comparison photo from the post.

Thanks very much for posting the comparison shots Vol. They're a beautiful and very formidable looking trio!

Vol,
Will talk soon. I would hate to be a French or Spanish player looking across a table and looking at that squadron. But as a gamer thinking "I wish I had made them. Nice, very nice. No! they are beautiful
Be safe

Wow, beautiful work.

Sailing ships intimidate me. I'd rather paint a battalion of Napoleonics than try to tangle with rigging.
