[SR - FB] Class 5 : Dragonfly

[Fraunces]

After the sinking of the Octopus and the capture of the Margaret (which was luckily returned to the Fraunces brothers), the need was urgent for another ship. Lothario bought a brand new brig a couple of weeks ago which arrived today in Tortuga: the Dragonfly, to enhance trading and to be better equipped for any attacks in the future. 

 

Spoiler

Some minor changes were handled immediately by the carpenters Jansen & Jansen:

 

The insides:

~Below decks the ship carries in her prime state 10 guns, and one more deck below that is where the crew sleeps. A crewmember can be seen in the hatch in this picture:

Captain's cabin:

The stern:

 

The ship carries normally only 4 shivel guns for direct attack but is able to 10 guns on the main deck:

 

I like her.

 

Thanks for watching and C&C always welcome.

A nice looking clipper...or brig? I like the colour scheme, the detailed captain cabin adds to the playability and nice job with the all-brick masts and sails. I guess the round bricks on the forestay are supposed to represent sails, I'm not an expert but I think normally they are rolled on the bowsprit. That's only a minor detail though.

As @Bodi says this is more brig than clipper, but classification notwithstanding, it's a pretty good vessel. Nice job with the interior and the furled-brick sails are nice. I also think the staysails would be rolled on the bowsprit; otherwise it's a fine setup.

@Captain Dee @Bodi, right, I didn't know. My knowledge of this ships is quite lacking, as I now see online you both are right. Brig seems like a better name for this type I agree. I changed it.

Thanks for the comments!
