This evening my shipbuilder friend Laci showed me a half-build he was gifted from a fellow modeller. I was wowed by the detail ; as was he. I took some hasty pictures  during  Game of Thrones night and now I am posting a couple to the site. Next Sunday we meet again. Maybe I will be able to offer him some info on this build. I will certainly be trying to get photos of the lower gun deck. It seems to be a kit bash with a hull length around 3 ft.

Sorry cannot help with info / ID as this is outside my era of ship building knowledge - I hope someone can help you.

 

That said, it has been nicely constructed.

 

cheers

Whoever started this build did a really nice bit of work, Augustus.   I hope you can find the answers you seek.
