I am very proud to announce that I finally finished the model of Victory’s figurehead! 🙂 A LOT of work and time has gone into it as well as a lot of headaches and a not responding computer. But finally it is done!
I am very satisfied with the result. The figurehead is the eye-catcher of the ship, or it’s crown if you like, and I wanted to do it some justice. The 3D printed model is available again at Shapeways who always surprise me with the quality of their prints.
Thank you for all your hard work! The figurehead you modeled is much more realistic than the one that came in the kit. I’m looking forward to painting and attaching it to my model of the Victory.
Hi Ron,
thanks!
I hope you have a lot of fun painting it. 🙂 When you are finished I would be happy to see some pictures of your work!
Bye,
Thomas
Hi. Is it possible to make the figurehead in 1:96 scale?
Is it possible to make figurehead and Trophy of Arms in 1:96 scale?
Hi,
this will get veeeeeery close to the limit of the 3D printer, but I will give it a try. 🙂
The trophy of arms was updated to be printable in 1/96 and is available here:

The figurehead is now availabe in 1:96 here.
Do you release your 3D models by any chance?

Is it possible to get the Victory 3D printed parts in 1:64? Amati are releasing their 1:64 model in 18 / 24 months time and these would be a terrific accompaniment to that kit. I would be interested in a full set if made available.
