Would be a nice experiment to do the onderwaterpiece of the hull that way..........

Check out this ancient chinese junk found in the Index of MOC Ships:

From what i've seen, this ship uses that technique most extensively and maybe most successfully. :-$

Trying a similar method on the bow of my USS Constitution to get the curve in the front.

That looks really good, i'm going to try this sometime.

I wonder if he put tiles on top of the different layers, it almost seems like there's no other way.

It might also work to use this technique in a way to make a complete hull by using it the other way round................ very interesting

You can order the bricks, or build it in a normal way, stacking the bricks in a round shape...
