12 gun Pirate Schooner

I think the deck is a bit high compared to the length, but I guess that's hard to change when you want to put minifigs inside.

Outside of that you did a great job and I think you've improved quite a lot since the first update.

The bird's eye view, the deck details and especially the sails look excellent.

Well done, and I'll put it in the index for you

Thanks for changing the title and the positive comment. I actually looked at your sail making guide for a little inspiration, and used the brown outline. Thanks for indexing it. More comments are more than welcomed

I love how it turned out, the sails look lovely, nice crew as well.

however, I do think that maybe your ship looks a little to thin for a proper brig, so far it seems more like a yacht or a cutter to me

a brig ? I was under the impression this wasn't a brig, atleast I think a schooner and brig are different things, could someone correct me on that ?

I find these ship terms so confusing, some only depict a sailplan while others say something about the arnament.

Everytime I post a new ship I have a disscusion with someone about what class it is

Actually you normally refer to brigs in terms of rigging. A brig is usually defined as being a ship with two masts that are square rigged, whereas a schooner is defined as a two-masted ship using primarily fore 'n aft rig. you will find different hull-configurations on both brigs and schooners. Also, the schooner is normally seen with a larger variety of rigging, including combinations of fore 'n aft rigging, square rigging for the topgallants and/or the topsails on the foremast.

Another thing that would distinguish brigs and schooners is the height of the masts. They have to be either at the same size or the foremast must be smaller than the main mast. If the foremast is taller, then the ship would usually be classified as a ketch.

To put it in a nutshell. The last picture clearly depicts a schooner.

Thanks. It is not a brig, although when I first started this topic is was and because it was thinner based on my amount of pieces I made it into a schooner.

I'd redo the Shrouds a bit. The usually always go to the rear, as they are supposed to keep the Masts from being flippep forward by the Wind.
