Introduction
This Thread is a collection of links to pictures of paintings, drawings or models of the historical ships behind our SoG-miniatures.
All current ships are listed below, sorted by nation and type of ship.
Everyone is invited contribute and post links to new pictures (there is no restriction; a single ship can get as many pictures as you can find!) and they will be added to the list frequently.
The collection is supposed to be a source of inspiration for those of us who want to give some of our miniatures a more individual touch or distinguish more between the two roles that can be portrayed by one single miniature.
You are all invited to take part in this project, I hope you'll have fun! :salute:
