Scratch Building HMS Leopard

[Wear Ship Dave]

So Dave, we haven't seen anymore updates for a while now...........................................................

Ya... I've been slacking a little bit. Work has been keeping me pretty busy, which is a good thing. My limited modeling time has been directed at some 28mm Samurai miniatures. What it really amounts to is that I am waiting for a little inspiration on what to do about the windows... I'm just not satisfied with what I have now.

Maybe I should skip ahead for now. I think I may have a unique solution for sails that involves some sculpey, card stock, and liquid latex!

Now you have my attention! The sails need to be flexible and rigid at the same time, I am intrigued! I did a lot of paper making/molding in art school a long time ago-just after we moved from papyrus as I recall . . . I tried Japanese tissue paper and different fillers on my Mary Rose, too fragile but they look the part . . .
