It has a nice ship-y look to it but I think that it is built a bit sloppily.

[Zorro]

Looks good, and can be used as both soldier and merchantship, which is always nice.

Great ship General! I really like it.
The coloursheme is nicely done, the idea for the rudder is nice too.
I don't really like the flintlock pistol and cutlass on the side of the ship, it's not really realistic.
Put them in a barrel instead, if there is room of course.
Some different heads would be a nice thing too.

I've noticed the spyglass figurehead! Looks like a ram to ram the enemy vessel and sink it.  

Well done Armendariz!

Overall this is a good MOC shiphttp://www.eurobricks.com/forum/style_images/pirates/folder_editor_images/rte-quote-button.png   your sails are nice, I like the use of official Imperial sailors.

Improvements include......

Blackmoor is right, the pistol and cutlass attached to the side of the ship is rather....unreal, shall we say
you should put it in the barrel.

There is no real room for cargo, do to the fact that there are cannons in the hold.

I wouldn't mind a photo or two of the cannons. They look pretty good.

Overall it looks good. Good job

I will put the flintlock and cutlass in a barrel since I only put 2 guns on the ship I have some extra space.
Thanks for the comments everyone

[Captain Zuloo]

Very nice Genaral armendariz! Like Zorro said, very neat that it can be imperial or merchant. Pirate too, I suppose, if you add some flags and figs.
The only thing I could think of that could improve this baby is some nice backgrounds. But that's honestly all.
Very well done mate!

[General Armendariz]

I've updated the original so I giving it a bump.

I love your cannon design... but what's the part you use on the right of 'the headlight' ?

Thank you for showing but what parts you used,... but is it possible to give a link to Bricklink ? Just talking about the cilinder part.

[Captain Blackmoor]

Very inventive cannon you've got there General! I might use the basic design of it for swivel guns.
Your updates turned out very well, the quality of some pics has also been improved.
Great job Armendariz!

Sorry I couldn't find the link but I know some gray ones come in the 2 snow speeder for the cannons.

[Admiral Woodhouse]
