THE FORTRESS Presented by BEANO BOY






During a house clearance, my Brother asked my Wife Mrs B, would BB, like this ?  Yes,she said without hesitation he will love it. Of course she being all wise in understanding me,i did and do. Now it must be said that it is a very small object and i think it would suit well as a harbour fortress in 1/700 th Scale.

Lots of things were flying into the rubbish skip but not this item.



                                                            i am sure anyone can imagine the sea? 










It is made of heavy resin and seems ideal for my important focal needs. 

3rd Rate Ship of the Line comparison. As you can see i am struggling with my painting. BB

    1. It has seemed 10 years since i put this castle upon this Blog,but of course it only seemed to be like that when considering what we as a people worldwide,have had to endure over the past two years. There were times my friend when i felt utterly exhausted ,dog-tired and bone weary myself, cramming in needful things 24 Severn with little sleep. Anyway putting those thoughts aside,i thank you for your visit and your comment. It was most welcome.
      Best Regards,stay safe stay well. BB
