SALAMIS SHIPS 3 - OFF THE SLIPWAY

I threw some paint on the ship prototypes.

 They dont look too bad.

The idea is to paint a lot quickly, so I cannot afford to be too fussy (or be a better painter? Ed.).

They will do the job methinks. I am now constructing a mould for 10 ships. I cannot wait to see many war-galleys lined up against each other. Hundreds, even !

Excuse the execrable background art.

SALAMIS SHIPS IN THE DOCKYARD 2

I got round to casting off some of my Salamis 1/1000 triereis.

1/3600 fortification and 4 frech triereis

 
They are quite satisfactory with no high tech equipment necessary - just 21st century chemistry!
 

No bubbles to speak of, nice detail.

Now I will make another 6 prototypes and mould them so I can cast 10 at a time....

Umber wash to see better...

 If this is too time-consuming or expensive I will switch to glue-gun glue or  air-drying clay.

It will take about a day to cast 100 of these...allowing time for coffee and other things...
