Came out well for my first proper ship, I think
Of course, Captain Greenhair must be acknowledged for the tumblehome, sails and rigging ideas

Very Nice! I like the Cannon Bow Ring connector. Its like they can slide the cannons along, Like fire pumps!

It's a nice shape with the Curvy stern and the cartoonised shape! It looks very much like nicked Navy vessel.

Excellent! A true pirate brig, love the colors and the sails! Oh and of course the tiled deck! Great job, does it have a cabin??

This is a great ship. so many details and the shape of it is just perfect, this is why we call you a moc master!

[Captain Blackmoor]

That is just an epic vessel! I'm very impressed!
Both her shapes and rigging is perfect, as well for the details. I think the bow is a bit low, but the stern is a piece of art.

And of course:

You did indeed! This is an awesome ship! I really like your sails and the tiled deck is great as well.
The sides of the ship are full of nice (coloured-)details.
If you want to improve it, I think you could lower the spanker sail a bit (so the top yard is on the same level as the crow's nest), and turn the lifeboat 180 degrees.
For the rest I think nothing should be done about it, it's a perfect MOC
Hm... I see I was too late to blog it

Beautiful ship, and the cannons are great as well! XD

Very nice ship SlyOwl. The curves on it look really good and so do the tiled deck and the custom sails. I also like the use of technic pieces in the rigging.

You are really hopelessly too good !
When after 2 or 3 Moc, I didn't have any ideas on what to build next, you are always ready to amaze us ! Come on, look at your photostream on Flickr and check the date... Each week, you come with an amazing creation...

This one don't infringe at the rule...

Oh, by the way, the photoshop editing is amazing ! How did you do the shadows of the boat ? This is not explain in your Enhancing Photos tutorial !!

Beautiful work! Very unique in it's design, yet very realistic as well! The Best Brig I've ever seen. It wouldn't happen to have an interior would it?

[Burman]

Fabulous.
Your amazing ship is well designed and the colours are brilliant.
It is just fabulous, thanks for sharing!

[NewRight]

Brilliant work SlyOwl. Your use of colors here is great. I really like how you've used yellow throughout this creation.

[StoneW4]

Great work! I enjoyed looking at the pictures for a long time! Wonderful details everywhere you look (colour, design etc)! I think more can’t be said!

A beauty of a ship Sly! I love your work on the custom cannon, and the sails just came out perfectly I'm going to have to get to work on my sister ship schooners soon...so many people churning out excellent ships to compete with 'em

[Captain Zuloo]

Fantastic MOC SlyOwl! There are very few things I don't like about it. Your lines are clean, your rigging is supurb (although you cheated and didn't tie the ratlines) and your colours are brilliant. But some things to think about:

• The spanker sits to high on the main mast.
  
• The spritsail is too far forward on the bow sprit, and it would only have a lower yard if it had a second spritsail, else it would just be held in place by rope.
  
• The catheads are too small, and too low. Perhaps try extending them out and bringing them up a little.
  
• Try adding a second vertical part on each side of the headrails.

Other than that, I think it's brilliant! And she certainly has some bad-ass cannons on board! What is the piece holding the lantern up above the helm?
