Viking Longship.....WIP On the Desk

Been a bit, since I posted any fresh work.  My profession and racing have kind of gotten in the way, but this weekend a bit of hobby time.

I've had this Viking ship for a while, and I'm gradually getting a number of terrain pieces ready for expanding my collection. 
 As you can see above and below, I'm building a guy to be in charge of the ship.  I decided to have a more of river look instead of a sailing ship.  I plan to make a rolled piece of fabric up for a rolled up sail.
The ship has been set on a piece of plasticard and will have a bit of waves.  In the prow of the ship I had to build a bit of platform as the Revel model does not come with one.
More on this in the future.

    1. Same here. If it turns out well, I may have to build another.

  2. Oh looks like a promising project, will be nice to follow. I have thought about getting this boat my self. Maybe this could inspire me to take that last step.

    1. It's a nice kit. I've decided to not put the oars in the water just because I know they will at some point likely get broke. The hardest part is telling yourself you are going to build the hull and then cut a bunch of it off.
