so what do you think?

hello! this is a wonderful ship you have here. you did a very nice job. 7 center
sections is huge! i must echo everyone else in saying you did a great job
widening the hull, i have thought about trying to widen a hull, but did not come
up with using the (forgive my horrible Lego terminology) angled plates to keep
the “flow” going and break up the vertical staggering of the bricks. (does this
make sense? not sure if i conveyed it correctly)
wow, 36 guns, i dont even have that many. will make her the terror of the seas
;-).
the sails you made are excellent, very nice.
the only things i can find to point out have been mentioned already: that the
stern is a bit high, and the placement of the masts. while i agree with Mr
Dulin, that the main mast could be moved back just a bit, i actually think that
the foremast is too far back. it looks like you could move it forward of the
cannons directly in front of it. if you could move it forwards, i dont think
youll have to move the main back (thereby allowing you to keep the extra guns
:-)) in general, the mainmast is half as far from the mizzen as it is from the
fore, but you can get away without spacing the main and fore quite so far apart.
anyway, you have build a wonderful ship, and i look forward to seeing the other
ship you are finishing up!
BTW, like the picture of you with your ship, dont often get to see the people
who build the creations.
best regards,
stephen rowe
