Ships in bottles

Hi all -Something a little different, and I'm not sure if this qualifies, but the sails are paper!!
Current builds are CFM SS Grainton and Wilhelmshaven "Nella Dan", both 1:250th.

I do these on occasion too, though most have been given away as gifts. I still have this one left as my wife didn't want to part with this one.
