Oseberg ship by Von_Kossa - Billing Boats - Scale 1:25, 800 A.D (First wooden ship build)


Recommended Posts

This is the sail. Yes it will be out of scale. :(

But i am too much of a noob to even think of trying "pulling the thread" techniques etc.

 

I visited the swedish National Historical Museum and took a lot of pictures on the large Oseberg model the have. I have constructed the sail after their theory of how it was made.
