"DESCOBRIMENTO do BRASIL" : l'avventura inizia. / the adventure begins.

Pedro Alvares Cabral ha circa 33 anni, parte da Lisbona il 9 marzo 1500 con tredici navi e circa 1500 uomini. Una delle navi naufraga presso Capo Verde.
Il 22 aprile avvista il monte che chiama Pascoal e il giorno seguente sbarca sulla costa a Porto Seguro (attuale stato di Bahia).
Crede sia un'isola e la chiama "Isola di Santa Cruz". Fa innalzare una croce di legno alta circa sette metri.
Solo quattro delle navi torneranno salve a Lisbona.
Alcune foto delle fasi iniziali di costruzione del mio nuovo diorama 1/72.

  8. I'm sure that it will be beautiful, I'm waiting to see more!

    and I'm very interested to see the figures... but I have an idea of which ones you will use .... (there is not a lot choice in that scale, I think!)

    1. Pascal therefore, as regards the figures will use the figures of Essex in 15 mm as guests of the ship. The other figures (all 1/72) are, as always, a mix. In addition to those you can imagine, provided by M. Cremerius, there will be figs of Imex and others. In addition there will be several figs masterfully painted by P. Hedges. In short, there are prerequisites for a good job, hopefully good. a hug!
