The Shipyards are working overtime (Black Seas French)


by Matt Varnish


The past few weeks been using a lot of downtime at work to get some ships done for my Black Seas French fleet.   Its been decent, 20 minutes here and there at work when we are on break, instead of doomscrolling facebook I get a bit of paint in.

After a few years not painting these I wanted to work my way back up to speed with some Merchant ships and then try my hand at a 1st Rate. 


Close up of the large merchant from this box, a good test of how the metal first rate masts will be in terms of flash and bendingness.   Foreshadowing, VERY bent!
