Blue Ensign Posted August 5, 2022 #1 Posted August 5, 2022 This is a heads up for Modelu scale figures. Shipping, Fishing, and Waterways – Modelu (modelu3d.co.uk) I have used Modelu figures to crew my Vanguard fishing boats, but in the absence of specific figures I used industrial figures. A while ago Modelu asked its customers what figures they would like modelling. More in hope than expectation I suggested fishing boat crew members, and to my surprise they have produced a set. 7810(2) I ordered a couple to add to my Zulu and Fifie builds. 7808 7806 A good fit to lean against the mast aboard Muirneag 7809 The figures are nicely modelled and are available at different scales. There are twenty figures in total in different poses. B.E.
