Thought I would start showing some of previous models while doing my Samurai Armor build.
This is an Mantua cannon kit of an English 32 Lb Carronade as used during nelson's time. I added some extras as the brass bucket and redid the blocks and tackle. Add decking and redid the gunnels for the gun. Simple but nice.

I have had an eye on these models for sometime but never knew they could be put together to produce such a lovely result. Your extras really finish it off so very well. Happy Modelling

Very very nice, interested to know how you achieved the aged wood finish on the rails Jase “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”
