discussion 18th Century single masted, inshore, armed sloop. UPDATES INCLUDED.

Here is another Ebay special that I got, worked on her- here and there, weathered her and made her my own.

Although I have added this in the completed section, the actual boat is finished. Further down is an update as lanterns, embellishments etc were added-I was waiting for these to arrive/make.

UPDATE.

I have added some resin water to a couple of buckets, some dried salted fish to a bucket, some small casks of rum, small black powder sacks, two brass rear lanterns, 4 genuine Pirates of the Caribbean figures (two more to add), a rear mast with silk Jolly Roger all battered and worn with two shell holes in it, some more crackle glaze, some metal ship ornaments made from old costume jewellery, again all weathered and rusted in places. There are two period anchors to add when they arrive.
