New member - modified La Grenouille from MOC YOUR BRICKs - LEGO

[Friedie]

Hi Everyone,

 

 

I'm a new member and I want to show you my latest finished project. I allways wanted to build a LEGO-ship of the Napoleonic era, but in a a realistic way as possible way, knowing that there are limits with LEGO.

 

I started with building La Grenouille some years ago (Original by MOC YOUR BRICKs), which you find with ease at youtube and facebook. Building instrucctions are free! That is a fantastic build. The posting of @Vincvat "HMS Surprise by Vincwat - scale 1/69 - Lego" inspired me too, especially his ambition to add a berth deck to his LEGO ship.

 

Recently I did some extensive mods:

 

1. Made the deck two studs wider. 

2. Build a complete Deck plating. 

3. The Canon Deck is partly open now. I also build much smaller cannons, so now there is much more room on deck.

4. A a new captains room, a captains bedroom and a toilet in the back, and 

5. Build a galley + sickbay at the bow. 

5. and finally I build a complete berth deck. 

 

 

Cheers and greetings from Bonn, Germany!
