It's really shaping up to be a true masterpiece Cap'n! 
That hull is absolutely stunning! The tiles give it a very smooth look.
Those interior bits are also magnificent!!
I can't wait till you start with the top of the ship!
Excellent...!

Nice job on the bow Captain 
Seems like you won't be needing 10+ versions to make it work
The furniture is looking really nice as well.
Impressive stuff. Keep it up

Im looking foward to this! I recently accquired for my Birthday a Pirateology book:
Its about a Captain who has captured a Pirate Captain Carlton and in exchange the Pirate agreed to tell him about a Pirates Life.
I also got a Model ship which is supposed to be Captain Carltons "Swiftbuck" its a Ducth Merchant ship, the model was sent to the Governer to see when the ship comes into port.
Brilliant book, I want to build a VOC ship to!
phreds Halloween Ship was a massive inspiration.

After a three weeks vacation one needs some time to try to keep up with things, I missed the update of this beautiful ship.
This is really going into the right direction, I could not really visualise in my head the way you wanted to make the hull upside down with plates and tiles, but now that I see it I love it!
I expect the need of many, many Bricklink orders....
I'll be following this project.
By the way: congratulations with moderator-hood mr. Green Hair! You seemed to have careened your way through the ranks rapidly.

Another one with the salary of a secretary-of-state (US edition)...
Man Id wish I could build one like them but I dont know how to start, and although I have dozens of guns and soldiers, I barely have any bricks besides the one of my sets.
It is looking really cool though, and since I am belgian, I will support for you ! The Prins Willem and the HMS Victory...We are sure being treated well these times.

Wow. This and Teddy's Victory I will be watching very closely. I would give some constructive critisism, but the onl thing I can say, is don't use faded white bricks.
