[MOC] British 5th Rate Ship (WIP)

Recommended Posts

This is my first proper Ship MOC (and MOC in general), and is very much a WIP.

I based (stole) the design for the hull and 1st deck off Bonaparte Napoleon’s French Frigate Minerve.

The actual ship:

As for historical accuracy, I stated in the title that it is a 5th rate, and while it does ‘technically’ fall into that category I chose to just go with what I though would look good as opposed to following a actual ship design.

I’m not yet sure what I want to do with the aftcastle but will try some things out. Any advice with the sails and rigging would be greatly appreciated.

This is a very good build you have here. The gun deck, the yellow stripped, looks lite a late 1800th century frigate while the upper part remind me of the black pearl from POTC movies. Looking forward to see how this turns out.

Congrats on this first MOC, it looks great so far! I guess the only thing I would recommend in the way of advice is to have a look through all the other great MOCs on this forum.

 

I look forward to seeing how it turns out.
