My final sinking ship unless I can find a 50 gunner going cheap.
Impressed with the Saratoga's paint job, the admiral ordered a red one for her personal command:

Only a bit more paint dabbing and she'll be ready for the high seas.
The original mini was an HMS Orpheus.
All I need is an Orpheus, and I will be adding to my little US flotilla Dobbs. She really does look the Bee's knees.

Nice paint scheme Dobbs! Mind if I use it?
I did another scratch build in March. The Continental Navy 32 gun frigate Raleigh. 1/1200 scale like most of my stuff. Sorry guys.

I sure wish my flags were as cool as yours!
If you want I can send you my flag files Dobbs.
And thanks for the rep points.
Yet another inspiration for me to join the US Navy in a more determined manner Vol.
Nice ship, but a pity that oversized figurehead of the President got detatched. Good job that the barge managed to salvage it before it sank.
Bligh.
Hahaha, too funny! This young navy needs coin anywhere it can get it!
"Touché" Vol. :happy:
