    This is one of the 3D ships I received from Henry Turner, the Canada class 74, I modeled as HMS captain.

    I hadn’t seen this before. Beautifully done.

    I like the look of the Henry Turner models, though I don’t have any yet. His models seem to me to get the details right, notably the stern gallery, in a way that the Warlord 1/700 models don’t quite.

    I’d like to buy a few of these in 1/1200. I’m not sure where to get masts and sails from, as I don’t have the skill or patience to make my own.

    I love how it’s plunging forward into the sea! Really dynamic!

    We get slapped around, but we have a good time!

    Vol,

    That’s very nice!  Forgive the late comment, but real life has kept me from the internet for a while.  Where did you have the hull printed?
