cehnot Posted February 7 Posted February 7 The Batavia is a beautiful ship. I am a huge fan of galleons and I love your rendition of a merchant vessel similar to that. Quote

And I'm glad, that more than a year after its publication it still arouses the atention of viewers. Quote
BrickPerfection Posted February 15 Posted February 15 It's a beautiful MOC VOC galleon! Thanks to the color scheme, it's really reminiscent of the Batavia! I like that the stern is angled upwards! Great job on the sails too! I know it's not easy if you do them by hand. To be completely faithful to your inspiration, you'd have to make the entire hull curve upwards towards the bow and the stern, but especially the stern. Can't really do that with hull pieces though.

If I could curve the hull, it would be perfect(ion). And about stern - it did took some effort to get those angles right, but ball joints do the most work. Anyway - thanks for your kind words.
