I've uploaded some pictures of the Snottler II. It is a rebuild of the
patrol boat Snottler, lengthened, widened and upgunned. (The forward 20
studs or so are a direct lift from the original Snottler).

The Snottler II is a guided missile frigate, with a single missile launcher
forward, two big guns forward and aft, and a pair of machine guns mounted
amidships).

I'm quite happy with the result, although the bridge really needs to be five
or six bricks higher up (too much grey committed to other projects at the
moment...).

Here are the pics:

I'm going to rebuild it again shortly, into a slightly larger, modular
design... and probably a design based more closely on a real ship, too ;-).

Cheers

Richie Dulin

(...) Very nice, Richie! I was feeling in need of some inspiration and then I stumbled onto this beauty! I was gladly surprised how well the SNOT design works for ships and have commenced building a space cruiser along much of the same design (...) (23 years ago, 28-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)
