Olivesaxer Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Hello, This is my first posting within this forum. You all are quite inspirational and are a fantastic resource. Many of you may have seen my original MOC ship a few days ago on the facebook group. I have since updated it (based around a bunch of really valid critiques). Here is the North Star 2. It is roughly 45 inches long and 40 inches tall. There are 56 cannons. All of the interiors are built out and can be separated like the modular buildings, including the 2-story cabin. Some things I am still working on - I have widened the bottom deck by 4 studs giving it a much more substantial base (20 studs). The problem that this is creating is my mid deck bow (Just below the hydra) is a single piece today, so I will need to "brick-build" that bow section. Any advice for a 20-stud-wide brick built bow would be amazing. I am stuck. Hope you like my boat! -Patrick North Star by Patrick Steinkuhl North Star_3 by Patrick Steinkuhl North Star_2 by Patrick Steinkuhl North Star_4 by Patrick Steinkuhl Quote

Feuer Zug Posted February 24, 2022 Posted February 24, 2022 Quite the build. It's massive, yet still fully detailed. That bowsprit is vile. Not something I'd expect the blue coats to have. Quote

In the end, decided to include it to strike fear in the hearts of those who engage in high seas piracy. Quote

I can get closeups of most of the stuff in this build just let me know what you want to see - but at this stage, probably should wait until after the ship-widening is complete. Stay tuned for HMS North Star 3. Until then, here's the bowsprit: Quote

Feuer Zug Posted February 25, 2022 Posted February 25, 2022 That could be used as a good Hydra logo. Quite the fear factor. Quote
