You can see it alongside his 54mm HMS Warrior. This model is a mere 2 feet long. I think there was an idea that it would take on the 54mm Chinese Junk which he went on to build. Needless to say we haven't found a table big enough!

54mm Dapper Class Gunboat
Having made some 20mm Dapper Class Gunboats for me, Jack felt the urge to 'up-scale' and produced this 54mm version. As with everything else this is scratchbuilt. Jack made all the rigging using florist wire. All the guns swivel on this model.
