I’m on record as being not much of a fan of schooner rigs, but... -snip-
... rebuilt the old brigantine into the fourteen gun schooner,
Bleusorcière, resplendent in blue and grey paint (a la Stephen Rowe’s
Scimitar):

you know, the more i look at this, i more i really like her. nicely shaped,
nicely rigged....kudos to you Mr Dulin!
| |
I thought grey wouldn’t work on a ship until I saw the Scimitar, and now
having seen the effect of grey and blue in the ABS, it is a very nice
colour scheme.
|
yeah, it actually worked out better than i had hoped initially.
| |
And quite economical too. Grey is a common colour for the tall slopes.
|
yeah it is...... when i bought the red slopes for Minotaur, they were more
expensive. i have seriously considered trying green, but they are hard to find,
and used to be rather expensive as well (if i remember correctly, its been a
long time since i went on Bricklink) i still think it would work out though :-)
thought about brown as well, kind of the unpainted look. i think done properly,
with enough accenting colored bricks, it would be nice, but i dont think i can
get all the brown slopes and inverse slopes i need.

(Hey! I’ve got to love the new spotlight weights. My crosspost to
.announce.moc, and my own highlight, pushed the Bleusorcière to number two
position on the main page for a while! It’s almost as if .pirates was
popular)

best regards,
