  HM 20 gun Frigate Minotaur
 
hello! i finished my most recent ship, HM Figate Minotaur. she is a light frigate, with 20 guns on the upper deck, and 4 carronades on the top deck. (much smaller than the real Minotaur, a 74, but her color inspired me, so i named mine after the (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !! 
 
  Re: Delfín
 
(...) Umm - the mizzen is a mistake. Oops. The jib was deliberate - I didn't want the jib and fore sail to clash. (Real Xebecs often had sails of two different colours, but I couldn't find material with different colour stripes, so I orientated them (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

  Re: Belém Tower - Torre de Belém
 
(...) Hello Moolhuysen Thanks for your interested opinion. When i reached the "capela" level, i tried to do what you said, but i don't have the white bricks 1 x 1 headlight necessary to complete the intire battements :( . For this version i didn't (...)

  Re: Belém Tower - Torre de Belém
 
(...) Hello Sincerely I do not know if this is the last version, because normally I destroy my MOCs last some time... when I need the parts. If it will have time and parts very probably I will make the modifications suggested for the Moolhuysen and (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.pt, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Delfín
 
(...) -snip- (...) Nice work on the sails. The X cut sounds like a good idea - I've used a paper hole punch, and have often found that the hole is slightly too big. And threading the jib seems like a good option to save them slowing travelling down (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
 
  Delfín
 
My second ship is here - the Spanish xebec Delfín! You can see her here: (URL) A xebec (or chebeck, if you prefer) was originally a ship built by the North African Barbary Coast pirates and operated from such cities as Tunis, Tripoli and Algiers.

  Re: Port Brique on the Move!
 
(...) Wow! Reminds me of my own move several years ago - I had to support my town on a sheet of plywood so it wouldn't fall apart. (Shudder) (...) I'm happy everything went well, Richie, and nothing was too damaged. (...) Big things are planned, eh? (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, FTX)
 
  Re: Belém Tower - Torre de Belém
 
Luis, With every upgrade this gets better. I especially like how you did the crennelations and the new details on the tower. Is this the ultimate version, or do you have further additions in mind? Bruce Hietbrink (20 years ago, 23-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.pt, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Belém Tower - Torre de Belém
 
Hello Luís, Yes indeed, this verson has better proportions. Substantially improved are the battements round the top terrace, those small pinnacles on the crenelles made of cones 1x1 make it look much more like the real life tower. I'm not sure about (...)
