Princess Taiping

This the first MOC I have ever posted here on Eurobricks.

As you can see from the photo, the ship is modelled on a traditional Chinese Junk.

Because of the flat hull bottom of Chinese junks, I decided to settle on a brick built hull made with SNOT. Most of the pieces in this MOC are from the Star Wars set MTT (2007 version)

The ship features three 24 pounders on the lower gun deck, one 9 pounder and one 24 pounder on the upper deck.

This photo shows the other side of the ship and the framework of the sails.
