Lovely work, John. I've had a soft spot for Snows ever since reading of the Sophie in Patrick O'Brian's Master and Commander. I was delighted to hear a real one had survived to the present day (after a fashion) when they found Ontario.
Thanks Vizir Cadillac! The model has been designed and built by me at a scale of 1/64 by commission. I have worked closely with Naval Action to bring her to the popular video game and with MarisStella to create the 1/48 scale kit. An excellent kit, I may want to add ;-)
Hello syang1116, I'm not understanding the question entirely. I apologize but can you add more explanation of what 'molder' means? Thanks in advance!!!
You did as well. I'm sailing to Haulover in it now with a cargo. Both the model here and the 3D model are beautifully done. Chapeau to the pair of you !
Very nice, was it scratch built or from a Kit and if so where did you get the kit I am very interested as I usually build model aircraft but want to get into Ship modeling.
Thanks @Spor7Y. It was the other way around, the model was the prototype for later kit of Ontario. she can be gotten here: www.marisstella.hr/model-ship-kits-marisstella or: the-art-of-age-of-sail.myshopify.com/ Let me know if you need more info!?
Her constructions appears to me she was a miniature frigate rather than a sloop-of-war. I wonder why this ship had an enclosed gun deck unlike the British Navy’s brig-sloops of the same period
That's what makes her a bit unique,. Purpose designed and built for her unique role, not as a supporting vessel, but as the major warship in the sometimes harsh winter conditions on Lake Ontario.
Absolutely beautiful work.
Thank you, much appreciated ☺
I'm jealous of anyone who can craft these ships. Just beautiful work.
What a wonderful compliment! Thank you ☺
Well that was enjoyable. It's always rewarding to see good craftmanship.
Very much appreciated John. Thank you!!!
100% my favorite ship of all time, reconstructed so beautifully.
Thanks so much :) :)

+ksjdhg Thanks so much :-)
Beautiful ! Very nice !
Thanks so much!
That's fantastic! Really well done! Wish I had one in my office.
Thanks so much Daniel! Can always make you one ;-)
That looks like a LOT of hard work. I could not ask for (or afford) that much skilled labor. :)

Thanks Jorg! Kit is a lot bigger (1/48 scale) . Packed with good stuff 😉

Beautiful
We will make it in Naval Action.
That'll be really cool!

The hms ontario is a brig?
Yep, technically a snow, very similar to a brig though!
Very nice, was it scratch built or from a Kit and if so where did you get the kit I am very interested as I usually build model aircraft but want to get into Ship modeling.
