I managed to finish the scratch built and model bashed ironclad Rochambeau this morning, adding the masts from a chopped up ironclad and various deck details from plastic strip and card. The gun ports are not correct and over scale but, from a distance they give the right impression, although I may sand them down a bit to make them stick out a less. I also left off the ship’s boats, as they would have been too fiddly and would have been stripped and towed in battle anyway. I’m quite pleased with the end result and was surprised that it wasn’t that difficult to achieve, once the hull shape was sculpted and the casemate attached. The Rochambeau will now be undercoated and added to my Broadside and Ram channel squadron.
