    I know I'm late, but just stumbled across your videos. Don't let the errors get you down. I've been building Langton ships for 20 + years, and I still make mistakes! Also, make notes inside your painting/rigging book. I had a good chuckle when I saw how clean and new yours was. That's the best piece of hobby money I ever spent.

    A really great revue, your enthusiasm is infectious. Your ship looks superb and ready for action. My ships ships have not had a battle for some time, I must rectify this situation asap ;)
    If I can help you with anything regarding your Napoleonic Naval project please let me know.. I worked with Rod and Carol for about 11 years and have quite a few ships painted and rigged under my belt ..along with many Signal Close Action games.
    Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next video.

    I've been looking for an Age of Sail game and I would absolutely love to give this a try, unfortunately convincing others to in my group to make the investment might be somewhat difficult. I've been looking at the various options out there and part of me was considering Black Powder simply due to its accessibility although I suspect the best option will be a self contained board game.
    Thank you for the video, absolutely excellent work.

      Well you only need a couple of ships. Soon as the club opens up we will show some small scale battles which are great fun.

    Excellent looking ship. The red you used is spot on. The Base also looks great. Would you mind commenting on how you made it and what paints/materials you used?

    • @WargamesGuru
      @WargamesGuru  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Craig. I will upload a video in the next few weeks with a step by step build and paint. But the red was GW Mephiston red but you could you normal red with a touch of black added.
      The sea base was from Langtons. It was painted in Vallejo coulours. First was Prussian blue 050, then heavy drybrushed with Dark sea blue 048 then light dry brush with light sea grey 108 and finally adding a little white to the 108 for wave crests etc. Sea varnish in Humbrol satin.

    Lovely. Am just changing to brass sails, also. What do you use for the yards? The sprues with them seem rather weedy, at least on frigates.

      I used the ones in the pack. They worked fine. labour of love though lol. hoping to get more vids of some games once this virus has buggerd off.

    Superb, I've done the same thing with renaissance galleys/ships, and I know it's very dificult at this scale...and I see you've built something much better than me! Excellent, most impressive details!
