how to draw Spanish Galleons 3D hull shape !

Spanish treasure galleon
for the Spanish Galleon there is this general 500 ton galleon for transporting gold silver ect
from South America to Spain and EU
i cannot find this model type in The old treaties circa 1615
Tons question !
i also wonder about what this 500 ton value is ?
is it the water displacement of the boat ?
and is this 500 given in modern tons units or else ?
Spanish treasure galleon
I read that Spanish used to have group of ships for safety security reason
and galleons were limited to use on dangerous trade routes
Again here there might be more then one model including the merchant and military Galleons!
i got some PDF papers on Galleons shapes design like
Galleons for UK and Spanish
The Reconstruction of a Seventeenth-Century Spanish Galleon
STANDARDIZATION OF SPANISH SHIPBUILDING: ORDENANZAS PARA LA
FÁBRICA DE NAVÍOS DE GUERRA Y MERCANTE – 1607, 1613, 1618
and some others Papers !
looks like size depends on the Years in the Era of age of sail
q1 -
main problem is how to draw the horizontal parts at the front of the ship or even the AFT section
In some PDF i can see some side vertical projections showing AFT and Bow but not much on horiz cross section
Note:
1) Would prefer to have some Internet sites references if possible
2 ) If needed i can start a new thread on Blender artist forum
where i could upload basic 3D shape using 3D Blender files
any feedback help appreciated
thanks
happy Bl
