Captain Green Hair Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 (edited) Hi, here are some pictures of my new Imperial navy frigate. It doesn't have a name yet, but it's loosely based on La Rennomee, which can be seen here: drudock models A very good pictorial reference site, i think. But here she is: Let me know what you think, still need to think about lifeboats and stuff. eNJOY! Edited September 13, 2007 by Captain green hair Quote

Opproperaar Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 hmm? where's the link? I can't wait to see it though. The choice of ship you want to base it on is interesting :-P but where's the link though? Quote

Opproperaar Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 (edited) You do nothing!Captain green hair has to upload it off his computer! LOL, I know, My mistake, I hope this creation will look as good as his Denise I'll wait, Edited August 30, 2007 by Hairy Ruben Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted August 30, 2007 Author Posted August 30, 2007 I did it, the pictures are in the first posts. I'll try to make better ones when the model is finished, i really need a new camera... Greetings mate's! Quote
El Bucanero Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 (edited) I can see the pictures, and I have to say, that stern's really beautiful!! I'd have to see some more detailed and sharper pictures to make "a final judgment" though. But from what I see, It's beautiful. It also looks very historically accurate wich I love! My only remark would be it's a very little bit too short. I think it would look better (sleeker) if you make it taller, right now it looks a little stubby. I think one mid section extra would do the trick. It seems we can learn alot from you.. Ziet er echt goed uit! Mr Tiber Edited August 30, 2007 by Mr Tiber Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted August 30, 2007 Author Posted August 30, 2007 You might be right mr. Tiber, maybe it should be longer... I've put in 4 mid sections, i don't have any more and they're hard to find... However in the pictures it looks stubbier then it really is. Remind that in those ages, ships where sort of a bathtub with sails :-/ If you have any construction questions, i'll try to explain with some pictures. Thnx for the nice comment! Quote
Siegfried Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 Excellent work, and well worth the wait and confusion. That stern is great! *wub* Quote
Capn Frank Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 (edited) Nice MOC so far Captain! *y* The only suggestion i can think of is to have the white stripe, if possible :-/ , to wrap around the front of the ship. How many cannons are (or will be) on this ship? Also the cannons on the Spar Deck, are those MOC cannons? If so, i'd like a closer pic when you get the chance X-D For free places to put your pics online i suggest brickshelf or photobucket. Thanks, P Edited August 30, 2007 by phred Quote

Thanks, P Aye, If you look at the rennomee, which i based the ship on, u will see that the stripe ends at the front, what i also like is that, with the black you have ore contrast on the yellow stern. The renomee can be seen here: http://gallery.drydockmodels.com/albums.ph...lbumListPage=35 This is one of the best reference sites i think. The ship will have 24 canons, due to the hull construction and the number i have there are only 8 really in the lower deck which u can see. I tried to upload on BS yesterday,but it wasn't possible due to server problems. The cannons on deck are indeed mocs, i've made several designs, bu these are nice and small. I've started on the rigging, she'll be done probably next week. Then i''l get you a load of pictures;) Geetings! Edit by Phred: fixed quote Edited September 1, 2007 by phred Quote

Only four mid sections? That indeed is short.. It's funny, I have like seven of those mid sections lying around in my room :-D However in the pictures it looks stubbier then it really is.Remind that in those ages, ships where sort of a bathtub with sails :-/ But there also were alot more elegant and sleeker ships in the same ages. And I believe that was for sail-technical reasons.. If you have any construction questions, i'll try to explain with some pictures.Thnx for the nice comment! Well.... I would like to know how you constructed those decorations on the stern.. Btw, it seems you've based this ship on La R Quote

El Bucanero Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 Witch decorations exactly do you mean, the ones on the side, or the rear? The ones on the side, please. Close ups and sharper pictures would be highly appreciated! I don't make sketches, i just keep looking at the pictures over and over.........And i rebuild sections like 100 times, as you can see there's no straight part in the hull or anywhere X-D Greetings mate's! I thought the ship was supposed to have curved lines! :-P Mr Tiber Quote

Hmm, I've never seen a ship that had the stripe end right before the bow :-$ Well, now i know they exist ;-) ...The cannons on the deck are indeed mocs, i've made several designs, but these are nice and small.

Captain Green Hair Posted September 2, 2007 Author Posted September 2, 2007 Ok, I've uploaded the pictures of the canons and the stern on brickshelf for mr. Tiber and Phred. They're seen here, in the folder pirates, i don't know when its public........ http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=RickB Enjoy! Quote
ZeekyBoogeyDoog Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Very awesome X-O . The stern is quite beautifully done *wub* The cannons are quite ingenious. I enjoyed looking at your other creations as well, especially the submarine, I have never seen a Lego one in this size before. Quote
SirScottLego Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Fantastic work. I love the stern and the whole "flow" of the ship from mid-section to back is great. Wonderful work! Thanks for sharing. Quote
