Hello friends,
I've posted on my blog updates on my project of changing a cheapo birdhouse pirate ship art project into a ship for wargaming.I think it's pretty much done, but I'm always happy to hear ideas and suggestions.

TIA
Dave

@ StoneMtnMinis, no problem, I'd love to see someone else's take on this project. For the rest of you, as always I appreciate the kind words. I've been painting my cardboard ships as well and I look forward to sharing my progress on those in the near future.
