Missing era?

I had forgotten about the Chen Yuen!  We can't forget about the Glencoe USS Oregon, either.

Al;

   Your Alabama and Olympia make me drool . Dad gum it man ! , How about this ,Talk with you Bosses and see about this line of vessels -In the workboat class - Oil Spill response vessels like Clean Bay one and two .

   I'll even help you with the conversion of L.C.M.6 units for the Sponge and Squeegee, the two boats that were mine . Clean Bay one and two were converted from offshore oil rig , anchor handling vessels .

I have built the Olympia and Maine.  I have a Kearsarge kit in my stash.  I really want one of the British ones, though.  I think the rest of the world learned a lot by looking at what the Royal Navy attempted and avoided many of the British problems.  Want something like an Admiral class battleship- a mix of broadside and turret guns, and although a steamer they still had lot of spars sticking up all over.  Or, one with barbette guns (nice to see a whole gun without breech lost in a turret).

You also have the chinese battleship

Chen Yuen

It comes two ways. One is the as-delivered from Stettin in Germany. Rigged as a brig I think the overseas delivery was more efficient that way. Victorian three color scheme.

And pretty much overall black as she was when sunk in battle in 1895.

Well, here are some kits of ships from that range that I've developed for BlueJacket over the last ten years or so:

OLYMPIA

ALABAMA

KEARSARGE

MAINE

Bill;

 Thank you for that reminder . I had forgotten about the Susquehannah . I did that one back in the Seventies for a client . It was , however, with it's faults a very nice kit . Plus the deck material , plastic ? took a teak stain very nicely .

       If my memory serves it was a pretty straightforward build with few problems . The yards and masts I replaced with Basswood dowels turned with my home-made dremel lathe ..Bluejacket Shipcrafters then supplied me with very good blocks and deadeyes .

 The deck-eyes had to be made out of fine wire according to the instructions . Worked well too !      T.B.

The Heller Pourquoi Pas? fits in well. Like Scott's Discovery, it's a little later than your stated eras.

Gentlemen,

Revell had the USS Kearsarge and CSS Alabama (sort of), Imai had the USS Susquehannah, and Heller had Le Napoleon.  Airfix had a kit of the Discovery.  I can think of no others.

Don;

 I seem to remember one or two larger ships that were steam/sail .The two were both paddle-wheel equipped .I think one was the KEARSARGE ! T.B.

Don,

Combrig has quite an extensive range of resin ships from the later part of this era.  Flagship models offers a range of American Civil War ships.  Also, there are paper card models of some of these ships.  I do not know of any polystyrene kits.
