If you want a ship model that's a little bit easier to add detail, check this out - German U-boat model
It's a submarine, but I think it qualifies. Why is it easier to add detail to, you ask? Simple; the model is in 1/32 scale.

:-)

Yup. A 1/32 scale U-boat! 6 feet 5.5 inches long! All for a practically invisible price of $1799.96!!!!!!!!! :-) If you're ever looking for a model to build a house around.....
