    Released the one and fifty three

    yep. Craiggos galleon above has some flowing rounded ornaments, but they are stronger, a bit simpler. Less "filigran" and fragile. :onya2 i just googles Ornaments, chose pictures. maybe one of the many black and white profiles can be turned into a photoshop brush?

    Brigantine Castell Friedrichsburg 1688, upgraded to 16 guns

    first screenshot: nothing for people afraid of heights... Yikes! love the lantern and the rear detail.

    love it.absolutely breathtaking But not on her - the contrast between "geometry paint" and those "flowing colors" is just too big... like two worlds meeting each other, or more like the complex ornaments intruding the world of beautiful simple paint. later ships would massively profit from such...

    pure torture. does this help any, to fill the appearent void? (do no diagrams exist ?) http://www2.gorchfock.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=718 (and following pages) there are a few interesting details in there, as always: Page 4 - the big lantern has one side covered to not cast too much...

    that first screenshot , cost me, like, half an hour of staring. the second one made me want to reach out and hold the model in my hands the third one made me wish i was good with woodwork - it screams for a few simple ornaments and some paint. now my eyes hurt and i still cant find any words to...

    NW... that would be wonderful! i am negotiating the , uhm, "acquisition" of two books about frigate construction that i found yesterday. i hope to find general/basic knowledge, as well as a bunch of answers in there, even if Galleons and Frigates lie up to 200 years apart. maybe you have a book...

    NW, ye shoulnt have posted that Plan... i can now go bonkers and start asking questions to which none of you will have an answer. actually, the sailior moving forward through that door will take a step down of about 10 centimeters, no? the "doorstep" seems flush with the rest of the main deck...

    yea, maybe they were placeholders for even bigger ones... NW didnt say anything specific :) so i brought forward my thought. I dont know how much, in feet the guns on the forecastle would roll backwards until stopped by ropes. 3 feet? only 2? if the rear wheels get into the Gaps of the gratings...

    Red or brown? How should he do it? Difficult. I would like to offer a third point of View, if you allow... Let him do it the way he sees fit. Despite the question of Historical accuracy which will possibly never be resolved with "absolute" answers, textures and colors are, as so often a matter...

    So many exiting new ships in the works here.

    Oh there is a lot to say... just check out the individual ship threads. if nothing is written, there is nothing to tell. If something is written, that 's the story. on the flip side: when there is something worth saying or showing, the creators will update the threads. or not. Maybe. Maybe not.

    Released 20 gun privateer schooner

    negative... the Textures are manipulated in TGA format, which MS Paint does not support. Gimp or photoshop or corel draw will tho. when the paint is done, it will be convertedto tgaX format and used like that in the game.

    Big love for these "twisted" ornaments below the figurines. Very unique shapes! tip-top!

    what? cutty went down? You gots to be Joking... :wacko: crossed her in london a few years back on my way to belfast. HMS - Belfast that is. Like that dutch ship that burned at its pier a few years back... such things make my eyes water... Mai 2007, vermutlich durch einen defekten Staubsauger...

    Released 20 gun privateer schooner

    "you know, i remember making a crapload of discriptions for every single ship type, but they seem to have ended up in the bin somehow." here here. i have struggled too, to find a few precise and correct words for the ships in CMV, have refreshed terms and knowledge wiki and books were red...

    Yep, the RAA and the grey plates inside the gunports... where i noticed it the first time ever. the result is visible - how it affects the model all in all we will see in the game. i am just glad i was understood... such things are not always easy to explain. Happy you are picking up so many...

    Released the one and fifty three

    negative. i think we are talking about different cannons. the ones i mean are the lower ones, and the proposed "cone" or "pyramid" to create "depth" i attempted to draw in white, the cone goes towards the inside of the ship. to "replace" the "flat panel" that appears to close off the area (in...

    well, to me, galleons and similar ships look Massive to me,massive, impressive structures, some of them, with the tower-like sterns look really hughe. elegance i would look for in a surprise, or in a hmm, a constitution... where the lines of the profile are homogen, with no big superstructures...

    lol... was writing and correcting the last post for about 15 minutes, and there you come with just what i wanted to see. :shrug :woot lets see... Can the inferior Deck Gunports be given a few feet more depth somehow? in a way, that instead of having a flat panel, the volume could be...
