Pirate ship "Crossed Bones Clipper"

[Elephant Knight]

Yup. Got another one coming. This is what happens when I don't build a new boat in a year and a half. I just start building them back to back to back, non stop almost. I've also had a decent amount of free time. 

This current WIP is a pirate ship, going off of the colour scheme of the Cross Bone Clipper. It was my first Pirate boat, so it holds a lot of nostalgia for me.

Got more progress. It's coming along well.

@Elephant Knight I also love the colorscheme you use, in honor of the old set. I would only say to watch the captains cabin: isn't it becoming to round?

[Roadmonkeytj]

I would tend to agree ... The rear wall should have more slope.  The green black looks good 

I remember the crossbone having green inserts ... Have you done the swap trick?

Excited to see what you come up with

[Elephant Knight]

Thanks! It really is one of my favorite colour schemes to use. I have such nostalgia for that set.

Yes, I did do the swap tick for the hulls. Opened up a lot more possibilities for this boat.

Round cabin is actually the style I was going for. The ship is actually now down, been done for a while. I want to redo some sails at some point, I made them too narrow.

Some of the yard arms feel a bit short, but I'm too busy with other projects to fix them now.
