   Hi,

I’ve been lurking for a very, very very long time (the pre Lugnet days of rtl&atl) although I have attended a MUGS meeting before (I brought the Formula 1 microscale model).

Ahoy and welcome!

   This is the first of 2 models for T.G.B.S.L.I.L.A.

Doubly cool.

   The Freetrader Serpentine



It was made in two halves, part a while ago (hence the dust in some parts) And the rest I finished as of today. the sails are temp for the photos, as is the website.

Any clues on what type of ship this is would be a help. It was based on pictures in the Pirates manual (C-64 classic game)

A nice vessel indeed, I’d call it a brig, with or without a gaff sail - but I think a gaff sail would be a nice addition.

As others have noted, the door is a great. You’ve done a great job in capturing the sweeping curves of a merchantman in Lego and integrating the hatchways.

Lots of nice details all round!

   Enjoy, and thanks everone for all the inspiration

Aaron A

PS. My second model will not be complete before any deadline (not to my standard of finished anyway), are mostly finished models ok?

She’ll be right!

Cheers
