Interpretation
I did not follow the kit for finishing. I chose to make my kit as more of a working ships boat than a fancy Admirals launch.
Blue Paint vs the red of the kit, no fancy gilding, Added a swivel gun as they are landing on an unknown Island to explore or water or cut out a small ship.
Originally did not plan to install the masts and rigging, but decided to add them for the practice. May take then down and stow them.
Blue cloth is from a fabric store to simulate water.
