1/96th (15mm) Coastal Barge/Japanese 'Steel Truck'
Posted: Fri Oct 28, 2016 8:34 am
On-and-off project since July.
These are the 'inner hulls' of those Robert E Lee riverboat steamer kits, each about 13" long.
Tell me the lines don't look oddly familiar and at 15mm scale, are right about in the neighborhood of a Steel Truck.
For what it's worth, I'd originally been thinking of something like this - British steel coastal freight KYLERONA (1908)
1/24th scale tractor trailer sidewalls being cannibalized.
Finally got around to the irritating task of mating the deck (1/24th scale tractor trailer siding material) to the hull, fixing the mainmast and framing out the deckhouse.
