Hello everyone, there's some news about L'Anubis. I've finished the lower hull and the display stand. I'm really pleased with the result. But I've learned that stability and buildability shouldn't be neglected during construction in Studio 2.0. At times, the build was very frustrating. In the end, everything is very stable now, but during the build, it often fell apart. So the hull needs a redesign, but I won't do that since it's finished now ;-) However, I will review the rest of the ship again and see if any improvements can be made. So, work on L'Anubis will have to wait until next year. Merry Christmas to you all!

Hello everyone, there’s good news about the L'Anubis project! It’s always bothered me that the ship looked kind of unfinished without a lower hull, so I finally decided to do something about it :-) Now it’s finished... well, almost. I really like the front section — that’s definitely staying as it is. I’d still consider the rear part a work in progress, though there probably won’t be any major changes. I still have quite a few ideas and improvements in mind for certain areas, but for now, I’m going to start buying the bricks :-) I’m really excited to start building it! Take care Timo

Well, I think she will be quite sturdy with the interior. The only concerns I have regarding her stability relate to the half-stud offsets in the hull. I'm not so sure how that will hold up under the full weight when it's built with real bricks. A nice feature would be to split the hull, like on the HMS Supernaut.

Hello Nimitstexan, the project is unfortunately progressing a bit slowly. A lot has changed professionally, and I now have less time than I would like to dedicate to L'Anubis. I 've changed the color scheme and in my opinion, the hull and the rigging are finished; I think I won’t be making any more changes there. I’ve started designing the interior, but I’m not really satisfied with it yet. Unfortunately, the cost of the parts is high, so at least for now, I won’t be able to build L'Anubis with actual bricks. So, there are indeed some updates to report, but unfortunately, nothing major.

Hi guys, here are the latest updates on L'Anubis progress. I have now completed everything on my side so that the ship can leave the dry dock and be moved to the equipment quay. I hope that @Supersick_ will turn the beautiful thing into a real masterpiece as soon as he has the time to do it. Unfortunately, I won't be able to invest much time in the project in the future because my professional situation is changing. Nevertheless, I will try to build her in her current form. However, this will take some time due to the approx. 7500 parts. The missing lower half of the hull bothers me a bit... maybe I'll be able to finish it at some point. Take care Timo

Hi @GeoBrick, the height of the lower and upper gun deck between the deck beams is 3 2/3 bricks. A figure cannot stand upright and should definitely took off its hat ;-) Probably the height between the weather deck and the poop deck will be 4 bricks at the wheels and 4 2/3 at the stern gallery.

Yay, I'm making progress. She's slowly starting to look like a ship again. I lengthened the poop deck a bit and made some changes to the stern gallery. The decks are not finished yet, and the masts also need some attention. But things are moving forward... Take care!

Hello friends of L'Anubis! Some of you are eagerly awaiting news about the progress of the L'Anubis project. Well, I have good and bad news for you. Let's start with the bad news - unfortunately L'Anubis is not ready to leave the shipyard yet. The good news is that the project has not been abandoned! Unfortunately, @Supersick_ is really busy at work at the moment and therefore has very little time to take care of L'Anubis. But every great Master Shipbuilder needs an assistant :-) And that's my job now. I started implementing the changes that @Supersick_ wanted to make to L'Anubis. She has grown in all dimensions so that she fits better with Fer Maiden and Supernaut. At the same time, I adopted the building technique of Supernaut for L'Anubis, but tried not to change the original design too much. So I'm going to create the rough diamond that @Supersick_ can then turn into a jewel. That is the plan. I look forward to every comment from you, whether agreement or criticism. Everything helps me to get better and there is still a lot of room for improvement :-) The bow section is almost done...

Hello @Supersick_, another masterpiece! Congratulations, please keep up your amazing work! Take care Timo

Hello @Supersick_, I wanted to politely inquire about the progress on L'Anubis. I am very curious how she looks at the moment and I very much hope that building the L'Anubis will be my autumn project :-) Thank you for your great work! Take care Timo

I do really like the look of my guns, especially the big ones. Unfortunately, the are not very robust and fall apart quite easily. Just something for a showcase, unusable for epic seabattles with my kids. Take care Timo
-
Hello @Supersick_ , You're right. I've just had a look myself. No covers visible on the upper gun deck. So far I thought that the gun ports had always flaps on ships of this size. Luckily you're never too old to learn something :-) Thanks a lot. Take care Timo
-
Yay, there's progress! :-) Thanks for the update and the pictures! Is there a chance that the upper gun deck is also getting flaps for the gunports? Thanks and keep up your awesome work, I really appreciate it. Take care Timo

So, time for a little update. Not much happened but at least I finished the sails. I'm getting a little annoyed by the crew. Unfortunately I can't get the decals printed as nicely as I want them to be. I do have to try more... I think someone asked how to build the guns. The post has disappeared again, anyway I'll attach a few pictures. Maybe it's still of intrest :-)

Hello @Kyle84, has the Vanguard made any progress that you would like to share with us? Take care Timo
