This boat was suggested in a post in a Facebook group and I followed up on it to see where it would take me. It is a wooden model of a john boat about 18" long. I added a deck, cut out some gunports and rigged a couple of masts. I am happy with the colors, but of course others may want to add their own paint schemes. It is a normal $20.00 USD price point but when you catch it on sale it comes in about $10.00 USD so might be worth looking up on the HL website. url=https://postimages.org/] ‌ url=https://postimages.org/] ‌

Nice conversion work, nice model! I've wanted to run a sea-based AD&D campaign for a number of years. I would want a ship model for that, and this would be quite nice. Filing it in the long-term memory banks for possible later use. Cheers!
