[DIGITAL] Frigate BROWN SUGAR

[chris1980]

Hi there,

this is my first ship moc design. Avoiding all lego hull pieces as well as fancy colors. I am more into the wooden, dark look with only small accents. As I would see a classic pirates ship.

It is 80 cm plus with currently 3150 pieces. I am already working on the instructions, which have exceeded the 200 pages. The rigging and some minor details will be the final steps.

PS no minifigures in my digital renderings, as usual. But I will build this one somewhere in 2022 with my actual minifig crew ;)

Great design, very classic and elegant, well done!

Good looking frigate. Simple and uncluttered.

Thank you very much. 

The only thing to me is the size of the ctp. Cabin when considering the side view. It appears a bit small. I had it larger in between the making and then went back to this size, cause it fits to the streamlined elegant shape. Still not 100% convincing.

Just out of curiosity, why is that?

Asking because minifigs go far in attracting more attention to MOCs.

Great work on this! I love the color-scheme, a nice "wooden" look.

Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I like and wanted. Not too artificial and fancy.
