Houston's Ships 2
Dhows, Junks and
China-Station Gunboats |
|
Hand built, fully
finished ship models for gaming and collecting.

Here are Richard Houston's hand built models of Chinese
and Middle-Eastern vessels, as well as European Gunboats used in Far-East stations.
Note: Chinese Junks are pierced for cannon, but no gun models
are provided (except where indicated).
Currently, stocks of "standard Junks" are limited to
those below. If you are in the market for a custom design, contact TVAG so Richard can build one for you!

HS-54
USS Monocacy
This model represents the "new" USS Monocacy which served on China Station after the turn of the
20th Century, The model is 18" long and 5" wide, and mounts two 12-pdr (3") guns and 4 MG's. She is ready

HS-95
Sampan--25mm
Built from a commercially available kit, but heavily modified and "waterlined" for wargaming, this Sampan could
haunt any Asian Coast or waterway, from Rangoon to Manila.
Fully rigged, her masts may be removed (see photo) for storage, or to represent damage in combat. Measuring 17" by 3", she
has sufficient deck space for a sizable crew and even a few light guns (or Jingals). The details in her rigging and
sails alone will tempt you to keep her on the mantle, but she's definitely meant for gaming!
SOLD!

To find the perfect accessory for any Junk, visit the
Chinese Pirate Flags Page for a complete set of authentic flags to add the last touch of color and character!
The Guarantee
Richard Houston personally guarantees to refund the purchase price (minus postage) if anyone is not satisfied with
his purchase and returns the model in saleable condition.
About That Postage Thing...
Since my Shopping Cart system can only charge postage on
a fixed rate of increase, it is possible that when you click the Button you will not be charged all that is due, especially for
our Friends outside the US.
If this happens, TVAG will invoice you for the difference via PayPal shortly after your payment has been recorded.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but if you are somehow overcharged for postage, that difference will be refunded
as well.
