I found this kit in a box and gave it a go. Masts obviously still to do. I have no idea who made it. I bought the raw version at Claymore from a trader about three years ago. Needed a lot of love but it has paid off.

Very nice work, especially the figurehead. I wish I had one for my pirate brigantine, the "Mermaid."

You can buy them from Britannia Miniatures.. someone ID'd the company for me. They do about 5 or 6 different figureheads.
