    Preliminary take on Henry's ships even with none finished: they don't fit well alongside Ares because they're TOO GOOD--even the "Chunkies" are loaded with fine detail fit to enter into an IPMS model-show diorama contest, maybe even fit to recreate and even improve the old Trafalgar diorama that used to be at Greenwich.

    Granted, many of those fine details will be obliterated by first primer and then paint, but...

    Haha, maybe try dumbing them down with FDM prints. I still haven't got round to changing out to the smaller nozzle yet. You will be the first to know how the first 1/1000 ship turns out DB.
