Another MOC from the 21322 Barracuda Ship. This time I built a frigate.

The middle part was answered to 6 mid sections. There is also an additional mast.

Most excellent!

@Ayrlego and @Professor Thaum - a frigate worthy of the frontpage!

[Professor Thaum]

Sure !

[Brickander Brickumnus]

Very interesting the technique you used to make the ship a little wider.

Some close up pictures of the front and back from these angles will be highly appreciated.

Wow, @NOD, a wonderful translation of the Barracuda style into frigate form! Perfect!

Nice ship, I'm going to mod my barracuda too.

Thanks for the close up photos.

The only part that looks kinda off in my eyes is the "nose" of the ship, which seems small. Maybe because the bow is tall.

In "Estrella" it looks much better.

You're right, I noticed that too. The rigging is not good either. The time required to improve everything is too high. It's easier to learn from the mistakes and do better on the next ship. I improved the bow and rigging of the "Estrella".

Nice! 

I'm sure your next ship will be even better!
 

P.S: After careful observation of all your ships, I'll make an assumption and say that it seems that you like smooth and curvy surfaces and to mimic the smoothness in design that real ships have. And you are not much into the "minecraft" thing in ship designs.

Nice shape. I think I might add a third window on the stern, but that's just me.

Really good figurehead on the front of the ship

It's always refreshing for those of us who missed out on classic pirates to see ships built on the new hulls. This one looks amazing! Must have taken hours to build. Well done!

Many Thanks. I would be happy to see your mod.

I also want to rebuild my real Barracuda ship with bricks. I don't like my rigging and masts at all!

Yes, that would be possible with structural changes.

Thank you! The working time was about 50 hours. Because it was the first time, I built a ship, I needed a lot more time than the other buildings.

Thank you! I share the stud.io file:

 

https://www.bricklink.com/v3/studio/design.page?idModel=193214

 

There is a lot to be improved. I wouldn't build the ship with real bricks like this. It has too many mistakes, but the idea is good. The sails are actually made of bricks. In reality, I use cotton sails.

 

The different heights might look good from the outside of the hull. They're a horror on the deck because I can't build what I want. Because of the difference in height, it was not possible to reinforce the masts on the ground.
