Sloop

Good enough imo

I've had another busy week (busy for me at least) and my wips have spread out from my restricted space to cover about a square metre of our living room floor (with few complaints so far).
I've manged to get one of the three ships as finished as it's going to be, that is to say it's finished enough for a wargame at home though by no means up to show standard. There comes a time with the detailing on all builds I do, that I say, enough is enough.
Here's a few pics of the model, with some crew too

Busy deck

The right-hand side (technical ship term)

 When I started to fill the decks with figures, I did find out that I hadn't considered the height of the figures fitting under the front and rear spars, so the helmsman and anyone on the main deck has to be wary !

Front view (pointy end for the non-techies)

Rear view (blunt end)

View from above (who'd have thought ?)

Another one...(boring huh?)

Close-up vie (only slightly less boring)

Cannons - as finished as they're ever going to be!

In addition to finishing off one ship, I've been doing bits and pieces towards finishing off the church, mostly painting but also some of the internal detail that I wanted.
The extra cannons that I'll need if I ever have all six of my ships on my table (an unlikely prospect) have been completed but as I have 14 gun-ports on the current three models I'm working on and only a dozen extras completed I'm going to have to have a proper audit of how many cannon I have and how many more I'll need (especially as I'm also contemplating building a fort).

Not as bright in reality as it appears in the pic.

Obligatory boring pic.

The photo on the left shows the various bits I've scratch-built for the church. There's a half a dozen pews, an altar (with two pieces for a cross to sit on it), a bed and a table and chair, along with two benches intended for outside. They're all mostly painted now and just need to be glued into place once I've decided on the internal layout.
The confessional I made, a while ago, will probably not be used due to the restricted space - such is life. 

Another pic, just in case you're not bored enough

So that's the first of my three £10 ships finished and  over the next week I should finish the church off, barring any new real life crisis preventing me doing so,

That's it then for another week and as always your comments are both welcomed and appreciated.
