I need a ship

[Venport]

I am working on a Sea Fairing campaign and i would like to have a Model of a ship or two that are to Scale (at least close) one option i was thinking of is using Lego but that would be my lest favorit idea. I have seen the Games workshop Build our own ship, witch i think i might do... Dose anyone have any other idea? Prebuilt or Sematics for a ship?

there are probably Schematics in the Stormwrack book. Check the Wizards site to see if they have them posyed there.

Making a model of a ship isn't too hard. As a GW player, I have made several ships for my Stumps. Should I go into business and build custom model ships for people?

You want the Maiden of the High Seas.

Stormwrack has floor plans, but GW plans are the best???

If money is no object...

You can either get Flagship games (click on each link to view ships):

Flagship Games

or

Old Glory Minis:

Old Glory

They are made of Resin, come unpainted, but are pretty darn cool...

Of the two, I would probably choose the Flagship game line for tabletop gaming...more room to move minis around.
