The Imperial Conquester MOC

[cullmancreations]

Hi guys this is one of my moc ships named the Imperial Conquester.

6D

Although she doesn't look like one I was inspired to make her based on a ship of the line.

Here she is from the back

Here are the two back rooms. The top one is a navigation room and office for the Admiral

and the bottom room is his sleeping quarters.

Here's the main deck of the ship. there aren't any pictures of it but below there is a prison for any pirates, some sleeping quarters for the crew and a very small galley.

Here are some extra pictures of the ship

Thanks for viewing my moc. I hope you liked it. I made this ship a few years ago but only got around to posting pictures now. Thanks again

interesting ship - but a bit bulky.

However, the pictures are too large. A size of 800 x 600 is recommended for Eurobricks.

Can you please change that?

The vessel is perhaps a bit too bulky for the narrow prefab hulls, especially considering the length. It looks like too much hull for the amount of sail. I realize you built this from the limited components of the Armada Flagship, but it looks a bit excessive just the same. You do have some nice cabin details though.

Thanks Captain Dee. I know The ship is very bulky. It was my first moc ship. Ive made a more realistic vessel since then.

I understand. My first ship had the opposite problem - it was too low for its overall length, and the tumblehome sides came in too far, narrowing the wide prefabs too much to be realistic.

I didn't want to say much in my first post because I was afraid I'd sound harsh or overly critical. As far as your overall design, I don't see a big problem with right (vertical) sides if the other proportions are close. It's been done many times, and some of the towering warships actually looked decent that way. Your biggest challenge would have been working with those narrow, rare 2-piece white/blue hulls anyway. A rebuild using the new wide white hulls using the same basic technique (but longer and lower, with more complete rigging) would surely look reasonable.

Any chance you'll share your other ship?

It has nice ideas and the cabin is very cute and detailed, but overall it is more or less a bulky and edgy hulk. I know it is difficult to create something slender with edged bricks, but it is possible. It looks a bit like an island outpost put on top of a ship, it is hardly imaginable that the ship would sail at a reasonable speed.

And besides: She misses a rudder ;-)

Well done! Nice ship!

Yes I will post pictures of it soon

Were you inspired by 6280 ? Long ago, some 20 years ago in fact, a friend of mine had a ship with such sails

[cullmancreations]

Yes I used the same hull and sails from the ship. I have one of it's crew members manning the crows nest

[Jreacher]

First ship MOCs can be tough. This one just needs to be lower, and a second mast would help. But your off to a start, looking forward to the re-make

In the age of sail, no ship was greater feared than the floating condominium.
