MOC - English Sloop

[Builder 05]

Hello everyone !

This is my new MOC - one-masted english sloop. It can carry 8 cannons and 4 swivel guns. This time I used different bow technique, it doesn't look as good as the first one but I think it's quite OK.

 

 

Let me know what you think!

You really have a considerable amount of detail in this the rudder and the rigging ... The deck clutter as well ... The anchor is my favorite.  I think you could build some amazing show stoppers if you work on your hull curves.

Thank you my friend!

I didn’t see this MOC earlier.  

This MOC is impressive considering the lack of actual pirate elements used.  

Nice work on the masts, cannons, swivels, and anchor. I recommend making the center of ship wider, so the entire length of the vessel isn’t the same width. 

I look forward to future builds.

Going to echo this. The hull - let's be honest - is kind of a mess. The rigging and masts, however, are strong (better than what I am doing, definitely). The use of the snotted railings as the base for the shrouds, in particular, is just a stroke of genius.

Interesting choice using the bushings... reminds me of an aluminum construction. 

What are the jibs made of then?
