So which nation does this vessel belong to? Or put another...  what type of minifigs will she be manned with?

Thanks Captain Moore and Fraunces  :)   We have a fairly large stand we might be able to display it on once complete...   but it's SO darn tall too!   HA!  Hope it fits!  :)

Oh how nice to see a new tall ship from you!

I remember looking at the HMS Challenger back when I was coming out of my dark period.

It was one of the MOC’s giving me confidence that it was possible to make reasonably realistic tall-ships.

This one seems to be even better.:pir-grin:

Nicely shaped bottom hull, and the bow is much, much smoother than on the challenger.

It is very impressive that you even make a purist rigging.

@Anders T  Wow!  What an incredibily awesome thing to say!  *Sniff* and I'm so happy to hear that I gave you some inspiration.  :)   Yes I've refined my techniques over the years and the hull shaping is WAY superiour to the old HMS Challenger.  :)   Again thankyou for the kind words :)

Post Covid update.  Still working on this.  My youngest son (pictured below) came down to help me.

British for sure.  Got a good sized crew and Marines ready to come aboard :)

So one today she'll be flying the British flags!

Good to see you're making this a family venture - having him in the shot also helps to provide scale.

This is coming together very well - thank you for sharing your updates! :pir-thumb:

Amazing.  Could you post some more and higher resolution pics on Imgur or Flicker, please?

Finally got some prototype sails on it.  

You are almost there! :pir-thumb:

Allow me to help you a little with the images and how to share them on Eurobricks forum. Eurobricks does not allow members to upload images directly to the server because there are a lot of members and a lot of more images. Instead, to share the images here you need to:

1. Go to your Flickr and open one picture in the new tab.

2. Copy the url address (example on the picture)

3. Paste the address inside this thread, and the system will automatically embed the picture inside the post. The end.

example for the same image from the above

HMS Warlock June 23rd 2023

 

Looking forward to see the final version! :pir-huzzah2:
