Ahoy,
Although wide and ungainly, brig-rigged L’Administrateur Rouge packs a
broadside seldom matched,
|
I like her, she not what I would build, that makes her more interresting to me,
but she looks very nice!
| |
The L’Administrateur is not by any means a serious vessel, but it has
allowed me to toy with cross sections appropriate for a two decker. The deck
spacing works out quite well, and while the join of the angled gallery to the
cabin betrays my lack of red inverse tall slopes somewhat, I think it works
reasonably well.
|
Yes, I think that it does!
| |
Looking at the L’Administrateur, I can imagine it being two or three hull
sections longer, with the current foremast becoming the main, the mizzen
where the mainmast is now, and a foremast added.
|
She’s begging for more lenght! and shear down that lenght!!
| |
Maintaining the current gun
spacing, means that each extra hull section would yield eight extra guns…
this would mean that a four centre section version of the L’Administrateur
would be a 40 gun ship!
|
Or you could increase gun spacing, 5 or 6 studs gives a more real look.
Also why have the guns centered over each other?
Thanks for the gallery link!!
| |
Any feedback would be most welcome.
|
And do I see inverted sloped wedges?

Hinden it my pirate vignette is the cross section of the
36-gun Frigate RTS LEGOMALEE http://news.lugnet.com/pirates/?n=4138
Note that the bottom two rows of inverted slopes on the vignette are
in the hull part http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2560 on the my Frigate.
Just info for you.
I have been meaning to take pictures of my Frigate after I moved the for mast
forward, I’ll try to do that sometime.
All in all, I think your ship is quite nice and quite RED!
