    Easier to arm in 1/96, I expect!

    Looks like the 1/144 version though...

    We have a Henry IV in Battlestations (96th scale). Mark armed it and it has seen combat a couple/few times.
    It is currently in Matt's hands, and is being refitted.
    This one is indeed in 144th scale, and is being set up for Treaty.
    I haven't put a lot of thought into how we are going to arm it just yet. But it is such a neat little ship, and French, that I had to work on it.

    If the Henri were allowed in IRC it would be a little beast. Saving my kit for the day!

    Hard to arm all three cannons, though.

    Henry IV is coming along nicely.
    The bottom is completely done. Bow, and stern hard areas are complete.
    Mark dropped off some very nice printed superstructure parts at the last build-session.
    After deck is on, and shaped.
    I spent a little time today printing out some photos that I found on the net. I plan to continue working on the deck levels in the near future.

    I really like your bridge wings. Was that tough to print?

    It prints flat on the bed. Mark made the files available in the Resources section. Good stuff. Check em out.

    If I do I might have to buy a 3d printer and right now that would be a bad choice unless I can use it to print a wood stove for the house.

    I think it is 3.5 units. But I am not sure.
    I will check.
