[COR - FB3] Ship: the "Eliza"

[Brickwolf]

Lt.Wolf was able to pull some strings: The contract for transporting the Queen´s Rifles to the colonies was awarded to member of his family:

Captain Burt Wolfson and his small cog Eliza.

Captain Wolfson is talking with Lt.Wolf on the forecastle.

Midships, Rifleman Henderson has problems with seasickness.

Neat ship! Altough it seems a bit short, i really like her

[bricklover]

Nice ship! With that big of a sail she probably goes fast!

[Puvel]

Very nice work with the colours

[Fuzzy MacFuzz]

Nice use of a row boat base to build a cute mini ship. The sail and colour schme look great.Not sure if she'd survive an encounter with a rough sea though!

Cute little ship :-)

As I have said before, I love when the smaller vessels are getting some love, and this is a cute little example. Makes me wish I had one of those boat hulls!

I like how you have managed to give her a sterncastle, without making it look too bulky or sternheavy. These small vessels (a "ship" is one with 3 full-rigged masts) normally were flushdecked, though.

The rigging works well, but if you want to try a hand at custom rigging, I would suggest some sort of fore-and-aft rig on a vessel this size.

Anyways, nice work.

I like the chibi aesthetic of your ship. However I would find a way to make the sail billow as if the wind is catching it. I think that single change would improve the ship's presentation tremendously.

This is a cute design if not entirely realistic. I like the colors and the short design looks like something from a storybook.

I approve.

A lovely mini-ship! The sail seems to give it a huge push forward!
