Couldn't you just use really thick varnish on the seaweed? Cut down the 
time used.
	Also, some shells (especially coned ones, if legal/possible to 
obtain in your country) would propably also make nice ships, either by 
themselves, or with bits attached.
	As I've said before, any metal miniature Citadel has ever
produced is 
available through their mail order service, if they still have the
molds. 
They'll happily cast them for you at no extra cost (apart from the total

rip-off rates they usually charge for their minis, of course...).
