James H Posted February 11 #1 Posted February 11 I've always had a thing for ships from antiquity, hence my Viking build, but the next kit from Ships of Pavel Nikitin will be the mediaeval Winchelsea Nef with a tower at both bow and stern. These things were seen commonly on English coinage and seals. This was a 13th Century vessel and will be modelled in 1:32. Can't wait to see this one! thibaultron, ccoyle, hollowneck and 18 others 17 4 SAY NO TO PIRACY. SUPPORT ORIGINAL IDEAS AND MANUFACTURERS. KEEP IT REAL!

I look forward to it's release. I agree with Bolin. You often see the Viking longboats like the Oseberg or the Roar Ege so when something different from this era comes out my interest is piqued. When this kit is released will it be through NRG?
