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. Story here on the blog: link
and some photos to jog someone'e memory maybe here:
Bow view with added figurehead
High elevation view with some crew for size calibration
Quarter view
with its equivalent in 1/2400 scale
And the mystery kit in question.. |

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. |
