    HMS Leopard

    Thank you I would be happy if you build one of my ships. If there are any questions or problems you can always ask me but I think Instagram is the better platform for that because i am more activ on insta Not in near future but I am working on that. But it is a big problem because there are so many details on small space.

    How to design hulls

    Thank you. I'll try to explain briefly how I basically construct my ship hulls. The first thing to understand is that the ship's sides were not straight (seen from above) as they are today, but curved. That's why the prefabricated hull parts like those used on pirate ships are not an option. If you use it, you get a straight side wall that was only available on a few ships. The front/rear parts developed by Lego are a good starting point. They also have problems, but that would be going too far. I will now describe a method of building the hull section between the stern and the bow. To do this, a row of bumps must be created with Brick modified. So that you can model a side wall in Snot construction. In the next step, a gradual curvature is modeled with Plates. It is advisable to look at it from above from a distance. It would be fatal if you build a constant slope and end up with a straight and no curve. The special thing about this type of ship is that there are many organic forms and they have to be recreated. Next you build a segment of the hull. This should be based on the angle and curvature of what the molded parts from Lego specify. Curved slopes are particularly suitable for this because, as I said, organic shapes are involved. Now we have to convert the snot construction back into the conventional one. Brick modifiets can be used for this, but plate modifiets can also be used. And finally you complete the side wall by letting it fall inwards - there are many possibilities. I chose slopes here, but of course you can also use curved slopes in snot construction. The text may be a bit incomprehensible, but if steps are not clear or other questions arise, you can always ask me again. Ideally, I'm more active on Instagram there and see the news immediately.

    [COR - FB] ETTCS Earl of Abergavany

    ETTCS Earl of Abergavany The rapide expanse of the ETTC fleet has shown no signs of slowing down. In only a few months time, it has gone from a handful of small ships, to a fleet dominated by large Terramen.But the increase of hostile activity has led to the need for bigger and more heavily armed merchant vessels. The newest addition to the fleet is the biggest one yet. A 2 decker, class 9 terraman, armed with 52 guns and a crew of 300.This floating fortresses will protect and deliver its cargo, no matter who or what comes after it. -28 x18lb longgun-2 x 12 lb caronade-2 x 9lb longgun

    HTTCS Royal George

    HTTCS Royal George East Indiaman 36 guns 26 x 12lb longgun 10 x 9lb longguns Crew: 230 Man Max. Speed: 9 knots It was formerly HMS Canoniere, a 4th rank ship of the line with 52 guns. Due to its advanced age, overhauling was no longer worthwhile. Therefore, the ship was decommissioned by the Royal Navy and should then be scrapped. The ship was purchased by Parker Dockyards to be converted into an East Indiaman. For the rigging was renewed. Also, some 6 and 9 pounders were removed from the deck to make room for the passenger cabins. The 18 lb main armament was exchanged for 12 lb to generate more loading capacity. Now the ship will be handed over to the ETTC. HMS Cannoniere before being overhauled

    HETCS Pallace and HETCS Endomyion

    Shortly after becoming a shareholder in the ETTC, William Parker received a letter from Edward Scarver. “ Dear William Parker, I was most delighted to hear that your application had been accepted. Your shipyard is legendary and the ships that come out of it are some of the finest I’ve seen. On that note, I am hoping that you’ll be willing to offer us your resources and help reform the ETTC fleet. Despite being one of the largest and most profitable trade companies in the brick seas, our fleet has long been neglected and over the years, has fallen to a pitiful state. We had until now relied on the Royal Navy to escort the fleets safely from port to port. But with the Crown on the verge of bankruptcy and the Royal Navy engaged in the war, it’s about time the ETTC manages its own escorts. On behalf of the company I ask the construction of two frigates. These frigates will be used as escorts on future voyages and would need to be strong and well armed. But also versatile enough that we could use them for the transport of cargo when needed. Naturally, all expenses will be paid for by the company. We ask only for your time and skills. Yours truly, Mayor Edward Scarver “ Without wasting a second, William Parker ran to his office and started drawing. After 4 and a half months of construction, the citizens of Belson gathered around the harbour to watch the launch of the two brand new 5th rate frigates, ETTC Endymion and ETTC Palace. The Endymion, armed with 24x 18lbs long guns, 16x 9lbs long guns and 4x 12lbs carronades, holds a crew of up to 350 men, making her the strongest in the fleet. The Palace has 22x 12lbs long guns, 6x 9lbs long guns, 4x 12lbs carronades, 2 swivel breams and a crew of up to 200 men. Its cargo holds were built so that the ship could carry more cargo than an ordinary frigate, making her well suited for the transportation of valuable cargo. Together these ships signify the dawn of a new era for the ETTC’s presence on the Brick Seas.
