De Sandman Posted November 28, 2012 Hi, it's been a while but things got itchy and i started to build a new ship after destroying the Prinses Nikki (i needed it for parts ) so here's the first dek...20 guns so far..... I'm not going to build an interiour so it's a mess inside (but hey it's the outside that will be visible) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
De Sandman Posted November 28, 2012 And deck 2 is almost up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Green Hair Posted November 28, 2012 You're off to a good start here, I like the colours! I do think the curve is a bit heavy, it might look better to delete the middle step and make that 1 plate higher. But it depends on what type of shop you are making of course.

Sebeus I Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) Deck 2 ? Nice, good thing you used car roof hinges, I think the bow looks a bit chunky, some hinge bricks/plates could help. As for the curve; I like it better when the lowest section is closer to the front of the ship but that's just personal taste. Keep it up, it's gonna be huge ...But it depends on what type of shop you are making of course. Shop ? no wonder you think the curve is heavy, oh well, it was to be expected from a redcoat Edited November 28, 2012 by Sebeus I Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimmbeard Posted November 28, 2012 Great so far! Exited for final pictures . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank Brick Wright Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) Will you be building the bow and the stern the same way you did before? I am not specially found of it as it is way too squarish and simple. You have shown such a skill in the Nikki that I think you should try to be ambitious and go further with more complex techniques for that areas where the curves get harder to describe This is looking promising, the red/black colourscheme is always a nice combination Edited November 28, 2012 by Frank Brick Wright Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickington Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) Shop ? no wonder you think the curve is heavy, oh well, it was to be expected from a redcoat I wouldn't be making fun of my commander. There is a reason we like red: its the color of your bluecoat's blood! lol Edited November 28, 2012 by Commander Law Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Stabbin Posted November 29, 2012 Nice start De Sandman!! I'm not a ship expert, but I think it looks great so far!! I'll be keeping my eye on this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
De Sandman Posted November 29, 2012 Thanks for the replies, it really helps me, took your advices....rases the middle one step, so there's less curve and build an advanced bow.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
