HMS Granado 1742 - Cross Section - CAF - Scale 1:48

[Dubz]

One of my next projects will be the HMS Granado Cross Section by the Chinese company CAF. One of the few Chinese manufacturers who are committed to acknowledge the work of others and respecting copyright.

History:
Granado was one of twelve bomb vessels that were built to supplement the depleted bomb vessel fleet at the outbreak of the War of Jenkins' Ear in 1739 and the ensuing War of Austrian Succession. These small ketch-rigged vessels were designed for laying siege from the sea and were built to accommodate huge and heavy mortars with tremendous recoils. 


Ordering and getting in touch with Tom from CAF were easy and the package arrived within a week from China.
