Sigolf Brimabane Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 174B Earlier this year I decided I wanted an Imperial Flagship. It's very expensive even for a used one... So I decided to see what I had at home. It turned out I already had most parts. So I ordered the missing parts and sails and I think I got away at around €100-150. Due to the price of some parts I've had to swap colours, mostly the masts and the dark brown parts for which I use black. The dark bley fence pieces are also swapped for black ones. Sorry for the bad pictures. Battling against my newly acquired Black Seas Barracuda: Quote
Jreacher Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 very nice! It looks almost as if you actually bought it. Maybe I should do this as well, I really want that ship but dont want to pay the price. Quote
Hive Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Very very nice! Hard to spot the differences. Congrats! Quote
blackdeathgr Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Really nice! Almost the same! You could also circumvent the original sails and go for simple canvas ones (since the originals cost much). Imo though buying the ship (even nisb) will pay its money any time you decide to sell it even in used condition in a few years ;-) It's a classic after all. Quote
