[WIP] HMS Marchand

[Elephant Knight]

Ahoy there!

Here is a quick look at my latest project, and my largest Blue coat ship to date. (I am more of a Red coat guy)

[Sebeus I]

Love the classic Caribbean Clipper colour scheme. I've got a classic bluecoat ship on my mind though I don't know when I'll get to start that one, so many other things to build .

@Elephant Knight I love the shaping. Could you post some more angles, like the underside of the stern?

[Feuer Zug]

Quite the looker. Definitely would like to see more angles.

[Mr. Townsend]

This is great.   I like the double decker gallery windows.   The shape reminds me a bit of the Bonhomme Richard with such a raised poop deck.

Lovely build! I like how you have done the cannon flaps

[Elephant Knight]

Thanks for your kind words! I will try to get a couple more pictures when I can find a bit of time.

Here is another shot.

I like this interpretation of the Clipper's colour scheme, the shaping at the stern is beautiful too. Got a fun figurehead too.

Stan would sell it. Many would buy it.

I think its a Monkey Island reference

The figurehead is killer ! I had a good moment laughing 

[bingowaldorf]

beautiful ship! Love the figure head.

[Elephant Knight]

And here  I thought the figure head would be met with some eye rolls. When the ship is finished, I will tell the story behind why I choose it.

The second hand ship salesman who sold The Sea Monkey to Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty Pirate.

Sail making is in progress. A very slow process, I might add.
