I posted the Battle along the Tigris AAR a few minutes ago. It has mention and pictures of my rendition of the British Fly Class boat that fought along the Mesopotamian rivers fighting the Turks. This is a high level narrative of how I built it. I hope you enjoy the blog. Last Stand Dan Last Stand Dan Blog:

Dan! Thank you for the attribution for most of your Ship's Fittings for you amazing "Fly" Class gunboat. That Gun House forward and so many other weapons didn't hurt, either! You've done a first rate job of it, and I'm sure your labors were greatly reduced with so many details available simply to mount in place, rather than scratch build them. Still, the work on that hull and deck show real dedication to getting it "right," the time required be hanged. With those beautiful crew figures in place, I'd venture that sometime soon Old Johnny Turk is in for a hiding! TVAG |
