Alright, I've had this guy under development for a while, thought I'd show it off here.

I'm about a week away from firing up the KS on this ship. It's a snap to build and goes together quickly. Should be lots of fun for those looking for a European ship to patrol the martian or dystopian skies.

And a fine looking vessel she is too!

Very nice work!

Ragbones31 Jan 2017 8:02 a.m. PST

That's a great looking ship.

JMcCarroll31 Jan 2017 8:31 a.m. PST

A splendid ship! Now to mount the deck guns…

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP31 Jan 2017 8:53 a.m. PST

Nice work. Are those Hydra agents?

Fergal31 Jan 2017 8:55 a.m. PST

Thanks gentlemen. It's been a fun build and I'm really happy with the way it came out.

JMcCarroll, there are already some great deck guns out there. I have contemplated getting some made, but all the basics are available in 'true 28' by the virtualarmchairgeneral I believe.

TGerritsen, no way! They are crossover miniatures Paramilitary Goons link

That's sweet. Good luck with your project.

I love it! This is the type of thing I wish I could afford, but I suspect it would blow my budget sky high.

The "OOH SHINY" response is very strong with this ship but my more practical side says what would I use it for.

Lovely though.

I'd find a use for it,with a few changes she would be a fine Triumph Class ship for Space 1889. Bravo Sir,you've done a fine job again.

And for UK buyers why not try HLBS who have a fine range of 1880's ships guns.

Fergal01 Feb 2017 12:42 p.m. PST

Thanks gentlemen! I'm working on the pricing now, just have to cut the final version and time it, figure out the final materials count. I'm thinking it will $95 USD and I might offer a second on the same order for $60. USD

Allen57, what is this 'practical side' you talk about? :)

Guthroth01 Feb 2017 4:15 p.m. PST

I feel myself weakening. Please post a !ink when it's available.

"She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine airship: weatherly, stiff and fast … very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime."

Looking forward to adding her to the fleet.

A few more pics to add. Finished the final, final build of the Furious and also created a sister ship.

Here is the Audacious ready to be added to the next hull that rolls of the line.
