LM71Blackbird Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) Class 6 Heavy Frigate "Lightning" Coppered hull Ship by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr My most recent ship build is this copper hulled heavy frigate which I have dubbed the "Lightning". It's got 40 guns in total. It has 20 24-pounders on the bottom deck and 14 9-pounders on the top deck. There are 2 24-pounders and 4 9-pounders facing backward. It has a copper hull for speed and maneuverability as well as 3 square-rigged masts. Crew size would be around 15ish. It has a small cargo hold/powder mag and has a weapon storage to arm the crew in case of ship boarding.

Elostirion Posted February 10, 2018 I don't want to meet this one in battle. Really well done, and surely a real Corrington design. Great work. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted February 10, 2018 I admired this one on flickr before you posted, it is a very nice design, great work! I know you licensed her yourself, but will she be a Royal Navy ship in-character? Or will she remain a privately owned warship? Just curious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I plan to sail it out of King's Harbour, so I'll wait until after I talk to the colonial governor! I think she'll probably stay private, but working of course working for the crown!
