20-gun Brig-of-War RTS SAN LEGONIO



at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=114001

This is my rebuild of the BSB, three hull center sections.

what do I like with what I did with this MOC, I like that I the used the gun ports in the bow and the stern, and I like my bronze swivel guns.

why pirates? (recall what Sam Houston said about us)

The first of two MOCs from me showing off the fleet.

It’s not a large fleet ;^)

I’ve always liked old sailing vessels, the thunderous broadside shots and all. This is a really neat, and really big ship. What’s the tape for? Coloring the hull?

And how’d Timmy slip into the ranks? :^p

Oh, and anything flying the Lone Star rocks. :)

Yup, black and white electricians tape.

Actually (I guess) if you are time cruising, you would be where the action is, the texas navy makes sense, some what obscure, and thus fewer of those d#%@ time tourists crowding you out of the view! ;^)

A very nice development of the BSB! And yes, the swivel guns are pretty cool. (But they shouldn’t count in the number of guns for the rating!)

And recolouring the hull sections certainly works... I shall have to experiment with electrical tape too.


I shall spyglass her soon...

Thanks!

   And yes, the swivel guns are pretty cool.

The color is called “dark orange”

In choosing colors look at:

My bad!!

but then TRS never had ratings!

note: “Guns: 6 small”

I look forward to it!
