Here are the pictures:
It is a very impressive looking ship. They have one of these in a little model ship museum at MIT too. |

What a great model. I always loved the look of the Korean turtle ship. |

Could really do with a range of these and Japanese ships in 1/1200 or 1/600….. |

I've been wanting to see a range of 1/1200 Asian ships for years. I have several illustrations of Korean and Japanese ships from this period in case anyone wants to try their hand at producing a range of Asiatic ships. You can contact me at Burker1 (at) aol (dot) com if you want me to send you scans of the pictures. Most of them are from Osprey books but I have one or two others I could send you. I think Scheltrum Miniatures has ships in both 15mm and 28mm for this period. |

Robert: wouldn't a turtle ship in 1/1200 just be about 1-1.5 inches big, or 2.5-3cm? That sounds… small. |
