Early frigate

Our small Age of Sail 1:600 scale ships range keeps growing, at a slow pace but steadily. This in pictures is our upcoming release: a mid-17th Century frigate, a boat design laying midway between 16th Century 'fast galleons' and 18th Century proper frigates – or so it seems to me, at least. Swift and maneuverable, this is the kind of ship one would choose for naval scouting or privateering.

Model kit parts

Model itself consists of ten parts in total, with a hull resin and white-metal rigging. Ultimate model kit is to be sold in box, along with an appropriate flag sheet.

Ship's stern view

Worth to comment that the assembled sample model in pictures has been slightly modified by attaching two pieces of wire for flagstaffs – one at stern, the other on mainmast.
