Thank you old chap - much appreciated! ...Hi James,<br /><br />Thank you old chap - much appreciated! <br /><br />I am pleased I built these as it has helped to round out the collection and opened the door to some blue water naval action rather than just inland waterways and coastal. As an aside to this it has given me some ideas around pure age of sail types - obviously needing the sails - so that may something to explore in due course.<br /><br />Meanwhile, there are ten left to go!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-47544725107977771702021-05-27T08:08:05.671+01:002021-05-27T08:08:05.671+01:00Hello there Aly,

Originally I was going to build this batch last of all but I am glad I brought them forward. I have a lot of ideas fo games involving the masted ships and indeed, there are still a couple more to be built to add to the fun.<br /><br />As we have a long weekend coming up I may well sneak a game in so watch this space!<br /><br />All the best and many thanks,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-54440972799090946162021-05-27T07:33:03.430+01:002021-05-27T07:33:03.430+01:00More marvellous ships David.

I am pleased with extending the ...Hello there Bob,<br /><br />I am pleased with extending the collection to cover the high seas as well as in broadens the scope for games in an area that I had not really thought about. <br /><br />The masts have worked out really nicely and in due course I shall be using the same technique for the age of sail - obviously with the sails!<br /><br />The deck guns look the part and are well suited to represent the whole pivot gun mount that became popular as the gus increased in size.<br /><br />I am keen to get a game in at some point and the options I have taken pictures of show where my thoughts have been heading - away from the river for a change!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-15127977618490543492021-05-26T18:41:30.332+01:002021-05-26T18:41:30.332+01:00David,

I also like the deck guns you have built for these models.<br /><br />I hope to see them in action very soon.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.com
