Fraunces Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 What a BEAST. Would love to see her finished Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted February 19, 2020 Governor Posted February 19, 2020 So which nation does this vessel belong to? Or put another... what type of minifigs will she be manned with? Quote
Aaron Morse Posted February 19, 2020 Author Posted February 19, 2020 British for sure. Got a good sized crew and Marines ready to come aboard :) Quote
Aaron Morse Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 Update: Things are progressing nicely :) Quote
Fraunces Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Huge ship! This is a living-room centrepiece when concluded. Quote
Aaron Morse Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 Thanks Captain Moore and Fraunces :) We have a fairly large stand we might be able to display it on once complete... but it's SO darn tall too! HA! Hope it fits! :) Quote
Anders T Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Oh how nice to see a new tall ship from you! I remember looking at the HMS Challenger back when I was coming out of my dark period. It was one of the MOC’s giving me confidence that it was possible to make reasonably realistic tall-ships. This one seems to be even better. Nicely shaped bottom hull, and the bow is much, much smoother than on the challenger. It is very impressive that you even make a purist rigging. Quote
Aaron Morse Posted March 13, 2020 Author Posted March 13, 2020 @Anders T Wow! What an incredibily awesome thing to say! *Sniff* and I'm so happy to hear that I gave you some inspiration. :) Yes I've refined my techniques over the years and the hull shaping is WAY superiour to the old HMS Challenger. :) Again thankyou for the kind words :) Quote
5N00P1 Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 so how did you make this 3x3 mast? Actually I have no idea. Quote
Aaron Morse Posted July 10, 2022 Author Posted July 10, 2022 Post Covid update. Still working on this. My youngest son (pictured below) came down to help me. Quote

This is coming together very well - thank you for sharing your updates! Quote
Aaron Morse Posted July 17, 2023 Author Posted July 17, 2023 Finally got some prototype sails on it. Quote
iragm Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 Amazing. Could you post some more and higher resolution pics on Imgur or Flicker, please? Quote

Allow me to help you a little with the images and how to share them on Eurobricks forum. Eurobricks does not allow members to upload images directly to the server because there are a lot of members and a lot of more images. Instead, to share the images here you need to: 1. Go to your Flickr and open one picture in the new tab. 2. Copy the url address (example on the picture) 3. Paste the address inside this thread, and the system will automatically embed the picture inside the post. The end. example for the same image from the above Looking forward to see the final version!

Aaron Morse Posted July 20, 2023 Author Posted July 20, 2023 Aha! Good info. Here's the link to my Flickr account if you care to take a look :) Aaron Morse | Flickr Quote
