I just made a video of all the ships i made that are still together. It is on my Flickr here https://www.flickr.com/photos/111973605@N07/ If you went and watched it and possibly commented it would mean a lot to me.

[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!

Somewhere off the Southern coast of Varlyrio... The Hold Fast, a Mitgardian Privateer sails away from its latest spot of pirating. Captained by a Mitgardian of unknown origins, called One-Eye. The ship is a large, but fast caravel that preys the waters of West Historica, particularly the Tradewind Bay, the waters north of the Mystic Isles, and the coast of Varlyrio. Varlyrians are a favorite target of One-Eye's. The Hold Fast's crew comes from all across Historica. Here we see a Lupine from the Wither Woods, Mr. Crowls and he is looking on the most recent prize taken by One-Eye and his crew with some degree of trepidation. Noticing this, Legs Al-Bara, a Kaliphlin sailor and master swordsman, approaches to reassure him that The Hold Fast will make a clean getaway with their treasure. Deirdre, an Avalonian girl who has an adventurous streak and joined One-Eye's crew some months back, leafs through the decoy flags on the forecastle. The crew uses these to buy time when chased by hostile ships. If they can convince an enemy that they're friendly by flying the right flag, it might give them the breathing room they need to make off before they're caught. These flags have also gotten The Hold Fast into some ports that otherwise wouldn't have been all that hospitable. Since she made them herself, Deirdre takes special pride in them. Still a bit shaken from their last fight, assistant quartermaster Timmermans, hides out in the rowboat to sort himself out away from the rest of the crew. An orphan from a cave-dwelling clan of Southern Mitgardia, Timmermans was adopted by Big Bald Barrington, One-Eye's closest confidant and the ship's quartermaster. Usually Timmermans stays out of the fighting when The Hold Fast takes a prize. Last time, though, he got a little too close and probably saw some unpleasant things. Speaking of which, Big Bald Barrington (also Mitgardian) shares Mr. Crowls' concerns about their latest exploits. He is showing One-Eye a map of coastal Varlyrio, cross-checking directions given by their best lookout, Mr. Samjacks, who hails from the untamed regions of Varlyrio. Behind BB Barrington and One-Eye, Colin, the cabin boy and brother of Deirdre, looks out on the water with Black Holly, fierce fighter and archer from Nocturnus. Colin's not the type to let anything bother him for long and he loves the sea. Black Holly is less easily impressed, but she has a soft spot for Colin and his boyish enthusiasm. Up in the crow's nest and amidst the masts and rigging of the ship, Mr. Samjacks is looking out for a hidden cove that he remembers from his youth, perhaps a good place to hide in case they've attracted too much attention from the Varlyrian navy. On the foremast, Willy enjoys a snack in his favorite spot. A consummate sailor, Willy is more at home here than he ever could be on land. The Hold Fast has seen its share of scrapes and close calls. Let's hope our buccaneering heroes get away from those pesky Varlyrians with their big score! Notes: There's a lot more pictures on my Flickr. Including many detail shots normally found in ship builds. There's also a few more crew members and stuff like that. I didn't want to post too many pics here as I'm not sure if there's a limit or not. Please have a look at the flickr album here: https://www.flickr.c...157644511685285 I'd also like to claim the following UoP Credits: Architecture: Advanced Windows (Half stud offset)

Second Edit: This is a WIP, as suggested by Kabel. Here's my (first) entry for the Naval Arms Race challenge, the warship The Sea Bull. I think it would probably be a carrack... Main view - Rear View - Side - Below deck - And there you have it. Edit to add progress pics -
