Swedish 62-gun ship HM "Ömheten" (1783) [COMPLETED BUILD]

[richie incident]

Hello)
I present to your attention the construction of the Swedish 62 gun ship "Ömheten". Third ship of the type "Kronprins Gustaf Adolf"
Project of the famous shipbuilder Frederik Henrik af Chapman.
There was very little information on this ship, so I did not complete all the decoration of the stern and the bow figure.
The model was built according to the measurement drawing of a captured ship "Ömheten" stored in St. Petersburg and a model of the lead ship of the series "Kronprins Gustaf Adolf" from a museum in Stockholm.
The painting of the ships was controversial, but museum models and ancient paintings helped.

The model was built in 2020 in honor of the Battle of Vyborg on July 3, 1790, where the ship itself was captured by the Russian fleet.
Therefore, on this day in 2020, the flags were changed to Russian "St. Andrew's".
