Bonaparte Posted August 15, 2008 From time to time I'm improving my frigate L'Orient. I was completely unhappy with the sides of the ship, so that's the part I'm rebuilding now. I've rebuild one side of the ship and didn't touch the other side yet. This gives me the opportunity to show some pictures before and after the changes. Personally I like the new look a lot and I'm much more satisfied with the ship. Tell me what you think! This is still very much WIP and I'm still making several adjustments as I'm typing this.

Captain K. Posted August 15, 2008 Hello, I find it is looking much better than before now. The hull of the ship seems curvedly much more. Much better than before with the straight lines. Good work! Capt. K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Lock Posted August 15, 2008 I like how it looks brilliant but a simple design. No big elaborate gold and lots of cannons. Nice use of tiles to make the slope. Very nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Posted August 16, 2008 :pir-wub: :pir-wub: I love it! You really improved on the flow of the figurehead, it's much more gradual now. The curve, slightl forced in the previous version, was fixed, which I'm glad to see. Great job ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted August 16, 2008 Well you better finish the L'Orient Mister! The rebuild has been effective, after comparing both sides I have concluded the revision is much sleeker and sexier thus allowing for a much "sportier" appearance. You should definitely rebuild the starboard now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Lock Posted August 16, 2008 What did you use to make the Orient name on the Stern? Its brilliant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonaparte Posted August 17, 2008 Thanks for all the feedback!! You should definitely rebuild the starboard now... I've started working on the starboard side. But of course I'm missing several pieces so I just ordered those on Bricklink. What did you use to make the Orient name on the Stern? That's something I've designed with Paint Shop Pro and glued on the ship with Pritt ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted August 19, 2008 I've started working on the starboard side. But of course I'm missing several pieces so I just ordered those on Bricklink. How long till you receive these missing pieces? And exactly which pieces are you missing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
