There is a wood model of her at the Nautica museum in Norfolk, Virgina USA. She's pictured in my photo set of American ships of the line: MK

I uploaded her plans to my FTP folder a month or two ago, they are in halves 'pennbow' and 'pennstern' but it shouldn't be that much or a problem to put them together, paint works for this(used it for other ships) but photoshop or something more advanced might be easier. There has been some mention of possibly making this ship before, but I don't know if anything came of it It would take a lot of time and effort, given how huge she is!

man
better not
im still waiting for "santisima trinidad" ship

 

[Captain Armstrong]

haha well ships arent exactly made overnight... though the Santisima Trinidad does look pretty far along. Still she would have about 1-3 weeks of work yet if she was one of my ships, probably alot more depending on what kind of time ZarethPL has and if you include the time for conversion into the game and texturing.

i still want to know how to do ships
but i cant find an explicit tutorial
mean: how to make the ship main model
the cannnons
the sails
how to transform the model in GM files
For the textures , i have a friend that could help me
nothin more

That could'nt be meant seriously ? Or, could it?! :?
If you look at the first post here, also on the first page and pinned, i mean this (click me!),
you will have a really nice tutorial with much example pics. Follow it, and when you have made it up to the decks of your model you will almost know how to build upwards.

So, I'am in need for more coffee! maybe with rum...

it will be a lil bit dificult to find bluueprint of the ships

Here and here could be some point of interest then.
If you use your search function (google, yahoo, ...) with terms like "tall ship", "plan" and "free" or "download" you will find some more for sure.

glogoglo, thhere are some more plans from the same time period as santisima trinidad & Pennsylvania on my FTP, which are explained in detail here: http://forum.piratesahoy.net/index.php/topic/17630-many-new-ship-planssuggestions/
setting up plans depends on which modelling program you are using, I use a free version of a program called Delftship: http://www.delftship.net/?height=841&width=1400 to make the basic hull, then I use a program called Gmax( free version of 3ds max) for the rest. (though I dont know if I would recommend gmax, it is a great program, but I am having trouble getting the files converted to the right type) there are plenty of tutorials for getting plans in gmax and delftship on youtube etc. I am sure there are for other programs as well, just search for them.

other free programs and plans:

Blender 3D software: http://www.blender.org/
