markjay reacted to chris watton in Building my first 120 gun Ship of the Line. Can someone give me a advice on which one to choose?
Caledonia immediately springs to mind, followed by Commerce de Marseilles...

markjay got a reaction from BobG in Hull color for schooner Atlantic
Art, When I built Blue Jackets Atlantic (which was a while ago, pictures below) only a red/iron oxide color was mentioned. The green artist rendering is cool looking but may be the artist concept....As always it is your choice...

markjay got a reaction from BobG in Blue Jackets Atlantic kit
Hi Mark,
I've done both and they are very different not only in construction but finished product. The choice of sails or no sails is always personal and totally up to you.
The Atlantic when finished is much more delicate visually and in scale, so I decided to not add sails. The Bluenose has a different presence. The model is not as delicate and can handle the volume of sail cloth more easily. Again my choice was to omit the sails. I've lost my Bluenose pictures in a computer crash (no backup) and the model is out of my hands with my kids on the east coast. But I've attached some of the Atlantic.
Enjoy the build whichever you pick.
