The Deadnought is a horribly dilapidated old galley once used by a Human Navy and since captured by the Undead in some nameless engagement of the past. The Undead have modified it greatly, adding a fearsome fighting tower and a Catapault made from the skeletal arm of a dead Giant.  Rusty and rotting. the Deadnought demonstrates that the Undead don't care about keeping things ship-shape and Bristol fashion.

Construction Notes: I started with a badly cast resin "My Galley Salley" galley hull from Outland Games' budget bin. For once, the lousy casting job was a benefit. I wanted the boat to look old, dilapidated and generally untended by its crew. And it saved me a couple hours sanding and filling, which is an added benefit.  The fighting tower is built from Starbucks stirrers, the giant arm came from a dollar store toy.
