MOC Steam Battle Ship

[hench]

I hope that that's the right theme for my MOC. I present you the Battle Ram from 19th sentury, which works on big steam machine. I think, that ships like this one never exist, but it doesn't belong to Sci-Fi theme, I also wasn't sure for Action theme, so I put it in the Historic themes, because MOC itselfs, presents something historical.

Some months ago I was playing game named "Ikariam" and I got idea for this ship. It's a kind of battle ship, with big ram and ballista. It got big steam machine, which runs two huge wheels, which run the ship.

About MOC: I built this ship in 6 hours, I used about 1500 pieces, I used 7 papers and then I finally made good piece for sail.

I know, there's no minifigs on it, but maybe I will bring some. It is my first MOC on historic themes.

I hope, that you will like it.

I bet it would look better with minifigures and maybe some more traditional steampunk elements like greebling and maybe a taller smokestack.

I think this qualifies as Sci-Fi as it is fictional science for the time period.

Nice though.
