Hey everyone, I haven't posted any of my builds in along time, but I've actually finished one of my builds. Well at least the outside. You must of remembered my other boat I made back in september http://www.blockland.us/smf/index.php?topic=21567.0

Well anyways, any improvements?

Soviet Ship

In the water:











Out of water:










looks good, i wish i could rate.

rate it if you want too

rate it if you want too
k thanks i rate it 7/10 if you had interior i would probably say 8.5/10

Why do all the sails have a crack down its spine?

i think someone cut it :o, he will have to go on the plank.

what in the world is wrong with the front sails?
and how is this a "soviet" ship?

USSR member etc.


He really ought to have made the sails not cut in half, it would have been a rather simple thing to do.
What exactly are the tringles out front?

Lav, i hate you,
for things like this.

Some ships did that to reduce sail rips. However, drastically reducing their speed.

When the wind is not pushing the sails, ships rely on the triangular sails on the back, and rotate the square sails at an angle to get some propulsion. If you sailing with the wind, they sail with with the square sails. Mostly, you dont see rectangular sails at a 0 degree angle. Its just nearly impossible yet complicated to build a 45 degree sail.

I think it looks very nice.

thanks everyone for the comments

P.S The triangle on the front of the ship is a sail to direct the boat where to go. Yeah it is lack of interior but come on everyone you know I don't do interior. lol :D

It doesn't look very soviet to me but it's a great build.
Only thing that I may suggest is that you make the triangle more organic or something.

The only reason why I called it a soviet ship was because I am in USSR.
