Legostone Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) After some time around these newly explored islands we noticed that some stronger defence on the water would be needed; many Sea Rats and even some unidentified creatures which attacked our man on their small boats were around and causing our man to lose confidence that it would be a good idea to stay around these islands. Some even said they were cursed. This made it clear that we need more to defend our island than just a few man with sticks in rowboats. I decided it would be a good idea to sent a letter to one of the best shipbuilders of Eslandola if he were interested in building some sloops to defend the area. He agreed to the contract and went ahead to build this one; I've named it Arkady for its wild nature and, for its size, good armament. It even has some space to carry along some goods, which I really appreciate. Hereby I present you, Arkady, a class 2WR sloop: I sure hope his aggressive bow keeps those Sea Rats under control! And lastly, a picture of Arkadys starboard side: Not exactly relevant for this challenge, but I still feel like it is relevant, the Arkady with the rest of my fleet (including the HMS Kent/War Dwarf which is now owned by Bregir). Captain Anco Liconardo commands this vessel. Edited March 31, 2016 by Legostone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
halixon Posted March 30, 2016 Very nice looking ship! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon Posted March 30, 2016 Very nice ship, Legostone, that figurehead is excellent (), and the hull looks great, as do the rigging and sails! Glad to here that our new islands are becoming more protected! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted March 30, 2016 That hull technique is great and the time you've clearly put in on the sails and rigging was well worth it! Another splendid ship, great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzy MacFuzz Posted March 30, 2016 Really nice ship, the sails are beautiful and she looks like she is racing through the water with a strong wind. Not sure she has enough gun power to resist the Sea rats though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdeathgr Posted March 31, 2016 A nice ship with good proportions, colors and riging! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted March 31, 2016 Great ship, I like her sails! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolonialbeamter Posted April 1, 2016 Wow, quite a fleet you got there, LS, and that latest addition is a very fine one! The monkey business going on aboard is great And your lookout boy seems rather interested in interstellar travel... I see nothing that could go wrong on a journey with that crew Keep it up!

Legostone Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Really nice ship, the sails are beautiful and she looks like she is racing through the water with a strong wind. Not sure she has enough gun power to resist the Sea rats though! If they sink or capture Arkady they'll have to hope I don't find them! By the time that is possible I'll have way stronger ships as I don't plan on licensing him anytime soon (I already have 2 ships and want the third spot reserved for a special kind of ship which is being worked on):D Wow, quite a fleet you got there, LS, and that latest addition is a very fine one! The monkey business going on aboard is great And your lookout boy seems rather interested in interstellar travel... I see nothing that could go wrong on a journey with that crew Keep it up! Yeah, sadly not all of them are finished - the green one is a schooner which I've had sitting here since mid February and I just can't get myself to finally do the rigging, and the big one is a full size New Terraman which I started about a week ago - I just barely started the upper deck and am not even close to start the rigging... That is my figurehead! I try to keep them as different as possible - I still have a few dragon heads, wolf skulls, cow, sharks, sawfish, crocodiles, dogs, seagulls, spiders, ants, horses, bats, crab, dolphin, manta ray, squids, rats, frogs, pigs, chicken, scorpions, snakes, birds and baby dragons lying around waiting to be used. I guess I have enough figureheads for all small ships I'll ever build lol. Next one wanting to chose one of these can chose the one I use for my next small vessel(whenever that one will be build)! Well, I guess he does believes in dragons Flying Chicken. Will do, but no guarantee of a weekly vessel, lol! Edited April 2, 2016 by Legostone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
