I would like to bring to your attention a new development by the Russian company Eskadra. A model of a pirate sloop.
The sloop referred to various ships that were built on the Caribbean Islands.Sloops were usually small single-masted ships carrying disproportionately powerful sailing armament.This made them fast and maneuverable, which, combined with a light draft, turned them into an ideal pirate ship.Sloops were usually equipped with an oblique main sail and a jib at the bow.Sloops could also be called two- and three-masted ships with similar sailing armament.
Materials:
Plywood, veneer, solid wood lamella, brass casting (cannons, anchors, windlass, pump, etc.),
chiseled wooden elements (poles, blocks), mast blanks, fabric for sails (percale),
flags on fabric, photo-etched elements, plate and decor.
The kit includes a color, three-dimensional instructions for the assembly and wiring of the rigging.
Set features:
-
designed based on historical drawings from F. Chapman's album;
- brass casting of own production;
-
chiseled details;
- brass photo etching;
- laser cutting of wooden parts made of solid wood, plywood, veneer;
- it can be made in two versions: a Dutch merchant or a pirate sloop.
Scale: 1:072
Difficulty level: 2/5 - Beginner. The first model. 14+
Dimensions of the product assembly LxWxH (mm): 495 (with bowsprit)x300x395h
Label: New!
LxWxH: 340x230x40 mm
Weight: 1500 g
