Major Ben Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Hello all, I wanted to share my long time project, the USS Constitution. The Constitution has always been a favorite of mine, and I've seen other great Lego versions of this tall ship, but I wanted to make one that is true to minifig scale. At long last I'm (almost) complete and ready to share some pics. I hope to be adding more polished pictures soon, so check back for the latest. Would love to hear your comments, thanks!

Brickander Brickumnus Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Absolutely amazing! Did he use this piece for the hull? In a construction like this? Edited April 18, 2020 by Brickander Brickumnus Quote

Thanks, I didn't use those pieces. Here is an LDD cross-section of my design. 9 hours ago, greg3 said: Wow!! Simply stunning!! I love all the details here and that rigging is a work of art!!

I started working on this 5 years ago, but progress was slow, there was probably a whole year in there where I didn't touch it. Edited April 19, 2020 by Major Ben Quote

Wow, that's an interesting illusion for the ground by using baseplates, also nice usage of grey barrels as cannons, this surely takes some skill to build. Quote
mischa Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 Great work, stunning really. Could you share a ldd-file for the ship, please? Quote
