It is absolutely awesome!
Pretty quiet on the boards the last few days!
Here is my slow progress on Bounty

Those Mars class from My Minifactory, are they from Age of Sail Minis Chris? The side by side boats remind me of the old Davco/Triton minis.
On the bounty I am using cloth. For my 1/1200 through 1/700 scale ships I normally use regular printer paper, but I recently used cloth on a few 1/700 ships. You can look back at the workbench posts...
The weather finally turned nice so I have been catching up on all of the needed work outside. So this is all I have been able to accomplish on Bounty's sails

Wow, impressive fleet Paul. I like the odd number of guns these older ships had before the rating systems became standard. They hadn't yet utilized the line of battle so any fight was a melee. Have...
Really looks great Rob
I was thinking of a Sinbad scenario, haha.
The dhow has an interesting history.

Really nice looking fleet Roméo. I recognize the Warlord Games Black Seas named vessels there. I also like your use of the signal flags. Well done!
Paul, those Dutch Langtons are awfully pretty...
Today, while the wife is getting new countertops installed, I get to hide in the basement and work on Bounty!
Currently working on the upper ratlines. No jig for these, I'm freehanding them in...
That is a perfect way to transport fragile pieces Rob. Well done!
Beautiful fleet Paul! And I'm with you, rigging is my favorite part of a build.
Had to make a quick jig for the 1/190 scale ratlines

Wow Rob! That is one ambitious terrain endeavor, like your Barbary coast. Do you use them more than once, or are they specifically built for a show or convention game?
Working on building the channels and chains that were nonexistent on the model.

Those are some nice looking prints Chris!
Wonderful Rob!
Looking good Rob!
And I love your Langtons Paul! Never tried that era, you make them look so good
Really nice looking stuff there and reasonably priced
Thanks Paul and Rob.
Is that Brigade fort in their 2MM collection? I hadn't seen that one before. I have several of their forts and they are outstanding IMO.
The pastic Bounty kit is coming along with some modifications.

Strange mounds I finally figered out were supposed to represent rope coils, were in the way for mounting the cannon,...
