Following Kurt Baty’s comments on
Reprendre, my ship rigged twenty gun
corvette has returned to Port Brique’s shipyards for a partial rebuild.
I began by cutting it back to the top of the hull section and the forechains (I
resisted the urge to step the formast further for’ard), and experimenting with
different ideas to properly capture the curve.
The solution I decided on was to use SNOT for the hull, and return to studs-up
for the deck. The curve is achieved using low slopes (3x3x1), standard slopes
(3x2x1) and steep slopes (3x2x3).
The rail will probably be rebuilt to better show off the SNOT curve of the hull,
but it does the job in the meantime.
This rebuild has given Reprendre significantly more room for’ard of the
foremast... space for a couple of chasers. ;-)
Here’s some more pics since the rebuild.
The Reprendre is now docked beside the
Misérable ... the old Mis
is looking old indeed.
Cheers
Richie Dulin

| (...) Richie, It looks very nice overall. And I like your SNOT bow. How did you transition from SOT to SNOT, which bricks did you use? kurt (19 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
