The second scratch-built Ironshark has left the dry docks and this time around I took some work in progress shots along the way.
Tools of the trade
It was a much quicker and cleaner process second time around, now that I had a template to work from and figured out the best order of construction steps.

Comparing with the Citadel catalogue page, there is obviously less detail on my reconstruction, but it has enough for my purposes. I see Man O’War ships somewhere between miniatures and playing pieces.
Ready for painting
The third Ironshark is at the second stage above, so I am hopeful of being able to finish it over the weekend. Next project – the dreaded Bloodship.
