  1. If I could curve the hull, it would be perfect(ion). And about stern - it did took some effort to get those angles right, but ball joints do the most work. Anyway - thanks for your kind words.
  2. Thanks. I love also galleons The actual replica of Batavia made it easier for me to build this model. And I'm glad, that more than a year after its publication it still arouses the atention of viewers.
  3. Nah mate. Even if I had one, which obviously I don't. Use pictures as a reference. And your imagination...
  4. I used this piece: This way: Sir, This vile insult of using glue can be only avenged with Blood. Choose your weapon!
  5. I painted it by hand, using brush and acrylic paints, thick ones (those come in small tube sets - also available in DIY stores, relatively cheap). I also painted sails for my spanish galleon, posted HERE
  6. The material is the fabric cut from window blinds (this roller thing on windows), it's available in DIY stores or construction markets e.g. Leroy Merlin or Castorama in Europe. This fabric is very close to the material that LEGO uses. And the cost of a set for a small window (fabric 40×100 cm) is about 6 euro. It propably is purchasable online too.
  7. Those hatches under galleries are openable, but acces to interior is poor, so I skipped furnishing. Rooms are empty below deck, nothing to see there. Here's some shots of the deck to make it up. Yup, they were some kind of militia, But they were lookin' good
  8. Ahoy mates! Here's my newest ship - Batavia inspired VOC galleon, that carries emblems of Amstredam and Amsterdam department of VOC. Ship is build on old-type hull, carries coffee-dyed, machine-sewn, PVC-fabric sails and hand painted flags. The crew is inspired by Night Watch painting by Rembrandt
  9. As I searched while building the ship, those turrets (white towers) were simply toilets for officers Towers like these can also be seen on lego Pirates of Carribean "Silent Mary" ship, although equipped with some cannons.
  10. I think I'll post something in a week or so. Bellow I post a few pictures more.
  11. The horse one is from CMF I believe, and the other one is plain yellow shield with red sticker.
  12. Well, it's been a while... 8 years since I posted here. I present to you St.Miguel - a real Armada Flagship. It is inspired by Spanish galleon St.Martin, which was a flagship of a Great Armada (google it, if you want). Sails are fabric made and handpainted. Almost no illegal techniques were used. More in Brickshelf gallery Ahoy!
  13. >>>>>What I don't get is why the parrot is still alive. :)) Ooops! My bad!
  14. -Yes, honey, I've got a reservation at finest town's tavern! - Yes, I know there's only one! - Nobody's gonna bother us! - Just you and me this time!
