Black Seas Brig Bash

 After seeing what several other folks have done with all of the extra brigs that Warlord Games includes with it's squadron packs, I decided to try my hand at creating something else from two of the brigs. What I came up with is a 22 gun corvette and a 12 gun naval cutter.

With scratch masts set in place to prime

Standing rigging done on the two bash ships


Finished brig, corvette and cutter


With scratch clear acrylic bases I'm experimenting on.

Here are photos of the individual ships:

The only F2F gaming since March has been a few one-on-one sessions of Commands & Colors out on the patio with a well-quarantined friend. Most gaming has been solo for me.

Hello Lars, thank you. I have a 'How To' on 1/1200 masts, but I use the same process for the larger scales.

One of these days when humanity can return to socializing, it would be nice to finally meet in person

Great job with the modifications to the standard ship hull. Super creative with extra points for prettiness. 😀
