Well;

 Now this is nice . You identified the vessel by it's proper name in that configuration . I always wondered when the Union Forces Burned the Merrimac , Just how badly she was actually damaged .     T.B.

Wow, 

It's a little funny how a build of an 1862 vessel can look like a 1990's ship.  

Love the CSS Virginia.

Great scratchbuild!  What scale is your build, roughly or exactly, if you're working to an exact scale?
