These are a few update pictures of a Cont. Marine firring from the fighting top. This coat of paint is used to find flaws in the sculpting and is not ment tobe a primer coat.
thanks for looking, if any ship guys have pictures of a fighting top I'd like to add some details.
What scale? 54mm? Who does that figure?
Thanks,
John
Ask and receiveUSS Constitution top from below
With a bit of scale
During the restepping of the masts last year
Note the rail on the aft edge. In combat, the topsails would have mostly covered the curved leading edge. (The lowest sail, the Course, is furled up while in combat; depending on the amount of wind, the topmost sail, the Topgallant, might be furled as well.)
With some sailors for scale
Wish I could link plans of the top to you.
keavdog What scale? 54mm? Who does that figure?
The scale 1s 1/16th, I sculpted the figure, It is done using old leftover sprue.
Thank you... for such wonderful pics..and all your help with this figure.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!Semper Fi!
Oh wow fantastic job on the sculpting there. I've said for years I was going to try to sculpt some figures I can't find for sale but still haven't gotten around to it.
