Built in 1733, Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zaragoza (Our Lady of the Pillar of Zaragoza) was a Spanish treasure galleon which sailed from Manila to Acapulco and back, carrying South American silver to the Philippines, and exotic goods from Asia to Mexico, from where they were then sent on to Spain.

Here's a breakdown of the stats:
Guns:
22 @ 18pdr on the gun deck
22 @ 10pdr on the main deck
6 @ 6pdr on the quarterdeck
2 @ 14pdr stern chasers
6 @ 3pdr swivels
Total: 50 guns + 2 chasers + 6 swivels
Length 34.2 meters
This will probably be the last ship model I ever make, and honestly it might be a long time before it's finished. I'll be working on it in 3dsmax at home and Blender on my work laptop during my daily commutes. I will need someone to help with importing it into the game eventually. Here are a couple renders of the current progress.
