Does anyone have a photo of an assembled Langton galleass (from the Rennaissance Galleys line)? I own too many Valiant galleasses already, so I never bought an expensive one from Langton, but I'd like to see what one looks like. - Ix

link Pretty sure this is a Langton galleass up front in one of these pics- 4th down.

Well, that is a Galleass and he says he only uses Langton galleys so…. ….I keep thinking I should upgrade from my Navwar fleets…Langton are mighty pretty.

Thanks, Larry! That's the first time I've ever seen one. I'm also thinking about upgrading. The USD:GBP exchange is at a historic low, and might be about to start rising again (political turmoil in Parliament). I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on a roughly Djerba-sized order of Rennaissance galleys. - Ix

BTW, did a workbench on these Langton beauts a while back. Go to workbench and scroll down to August 07…… Crimeny! 15 years ago…. Man, the tens digit on my age clicked twice since then.

This article right here. That Workbench article is what convinced me to buy a sample pack! That article was great, and so were the ship models. You and Rod Langton both did a good job on those. The cost of Langton models is what stopped me from buying more. I have enough to use as flagships, but I bought a fleet of Navwar galleys to fill out a line. - Ix
