As you said yourself... the sails are a nice break from cloth sails, but... hmmm, not sure about the final look. But that aside: the rest of the ship is simply excellent. I really like the color combo you used for the sides and the gun ports have a really innovative design. I also like the cabin and the decks a lot. Does she have an interior?

I don't really like the brick built sails, but the rest of the ship is great.
What I really like is the decorated sides around the gun ports.

Great work, Derfel Cardarn

Hmm, I'm looking for Vic Rattlehead on the deck but just don't see him
Very cool ship though, has a clean look and doesn't look cluttered at all

Really nice work again Derfel. You're really cranking out the MOCs aren't you?

I'm not crazy about the brick built sails (although the front one is beautiful), but the rest of the ship more than makes up for it. I especially love the tan and dark red checkerboard pattern on the sides, with the turntable bases.

You've been frontpaged!

Wow
That thing looks so damn nice, I can't even tell you!

It's not one of the biggest, but it's definitely one of the greatest!

I like this ship a lot. It has nice lines and the rear cabin area is great. Love your window solution, look terrific. I think if you had given the sails a little shape like that front sail they might have looked better than totally flat, or done rolled up sails with bricks or plates.

nicely done.

Thanks

The cabin could have an interior if needed, as I have tiled out the floor and theres space. But the rest of the ship doesn't have any interior.

Yeah, one of my favourite Megadeth songs and I figured it made a good name for a pirate ship .

Thanks for the frontpage. The checkerboard patern is actually dark red and metallica gold. I was originally going to do all the ship in gold, but felt it looked better with another colour. I didnt have any Gold plates, so I used tan instead, which matches the gold when seen in certain light.

Thanks, im very tempted to redo the other sails in the same way as the front one, and make them a bit more squarer. I will give it a go, but I'll wait till my port scene is finished, then I can photo the ship at dock by the port.

Thanks for the comments

This ship looks great!! Your work always amazes me. I think the sails fit in great with the look of your ship.

You must have a million legos!!!

[Guss]

so it's a 100% lego ship ? that's very cool ^^ I love it, I love it design , even if the sails doesn't look as good as clothed sails, I think it add a "lego" touch to it that I love ^^

[Ratshot]

Your brick-built sails are really well built, I like how you tiled the deck too.
Keep flooding us with more of these great MOC's

Amazing, as usual! The hull is amazing and I also really like those sails .
Thanks for sharing this amazing MOC with us.
I wrote an item for the CP frontpage, scheduled for release by tomorrow.

[Admiral Ron]

GLORIOUS!!!

[Tom Bricks]

I personally like the sails but think they could be less flat. I absolutely love the back though, the windows are amazing.

[Andre1983nl]

Nice ship
So many positive word are already spoken of your sails
