MOC: Spanish Armada revisited

[Captain Braunsfeld]

[pid][/pid] 161A

Hi there!

Some time back I was lucky to obtain the hull parts for almost 2 Spanish ships.

So I was curious to find out how far I could get in re-inventing the good old Spanish Armada!

However, I tried to include some modification - partially because I preferred my ideas, partially because of lack of bricks

So, here they come (as they are in blue and white I tried to go for a new background, but I will admit easily that red is not the right colour for the sea...)

This is something which I quite like:

You can remove the grey part of the deck to access the hold.

There they go, sailing away into the sunset:

This was a bit of a retro-approach. So I will go for something more modern next time.

(And more heavily armed...)

Till then, happy easter!

I just love old revisited sets and you have done a fantastic job!

I like how the overall design is the same, but there's minor variances that separate the two.

These are great classic ships Captain Braunsfeld. I like that they are each unique, and would sit perfectly next to the old Armada Flagship. Brick on!

[Kolonialbeamter]

So close to the original, yet so much better. TLC should have designed the Armada Flagship after one of those (someone invent time-travel, please!).

Good work, keep it up!

These look pretty good, I like the green/pearl gold color combo a lot, very fitting for the Armada .
