GENOESE GALLEY (XVI sec.):
A historically accurate model of a galley, the most important Mediterranean battleship during centuries from XI to XVII sec. This model is flying the Genoese flag, from my own city of birth.
HOW DID I MAKE THIS?
I created the model starting from some original ship plans, so it's as much accurate as possible! I measured every detail and reproduced into this amazing miniature!
HOW TO PRINT IT:
Only the hull and its support are 3D printed since I wanted an easy model everyone can print without any issue. About the other parts:
Oars are 44 common toothpicks, cut and shaped a bit
Masts are larger toothpicks, the ones you can use for making meat skewers
Sails, flags, and bow/stern tents are real linen tissue. You can also use paper.
You will find masts' measures in one of the attached pictures.
