More amazing models from Richard! I always wanted a model of the ship from the Sand Pebbles movie. I know his models are first class and can highly recommend them as I have a couple of his ships already.
Cheers,
JB

US Liberty Ship

That over-achievin' fool, Richard Houston, just bombed TVAG with three more models this week, and at least one of them is yet another "first" - and a gem into the bargain!

As ever, all are scaled for 25mm figures, and may be used with rulesets like Boilers And Breechloaders, as well as whatever Victorian/Edwardian/Pulp-era roleplaying rules you wish.

Hand-made and lovingly detailed by Richard, these will be permanent and proud additions to any wargames collection.

USS Warrior - 1812 Great Lakes warship

The first is an exquisite model of a U.S. Great Lakes gunboat for the War of 1812.

River gunboat

Second is a river gunboat that can fly any flag you ask for.

U.S. Liberty Ship

But the "gem" has to be the Liberty Ship. This can be used in more roleplaying and wargame scenarios than you've had hot meals.

By following this link, you will be able to read the full particulars, and see some photos that would inspire Conrad to write a seafaring adventure scenario - and you, too!

Once more, if you're tempted by any of these, or the five or more other models currently up on the site, don't fight against it for long! The best ones go first and fast!

And I wouldn't be surprised if that Liberty Ship doesn't go first - but Richard can make another, if you ask!

Enjoy the Tour!
