If you look closely at the Maud you can see that the model was clinker built,it took some doing,and the Albion was carvel built.

Hello, Do you have this item for sale?  This is the particular ship my ancestor Henry Bagwell arrived at Jamestown in and I would love to add this boat to my collection of model boats.  Thank you, Trish Palomo

Nice!  Are these figures made of wire and then just painted?  I've had good luck sculpting rudimentary "skeletons", dipping them in white glue (often diluted), and painting when dry.  Sometimes I need to redip in certain areas to fill things out, but for tiny figures, it serves the purpose.  

Thank you, Niallmhor!

very nice
