not sure u should use it to escort the sonks, as far as i can see, its built in a bit of a different style. maybe if you put more dark red pieces in it?

if 20 chickens can fit in a brick, how many pingpongballs does a crocodile have to eat so it can swim faster than a washing machine?

Excellent work, as usual. I like the railgun.

Nice escort, I echo a previous writer and want a pic of your action group together. I really like the torpedotube, and think you have a good solution for the side windows - looking good.

The boat hull POOPs that the gun sponsons are mounted on... I only have one more I think so that limits me from making another, unless I find an extra. As for dark red, I don't have any more. If I get some dark red and another hull POOP I will make another one of these and spruce them up with dark red details.

?!! it cost me £150+5 years of lego collecting and I only got 200studs and the ship imploded under its own weight, in reality unless this is a down to bones ship with only one full deck and reinforcement it's impossible on minifig scale.(and I will twat out anyone who says james may)

@Natalya nice but way too small and dull, I would accept gunboat class, at most. double the size and re-think weaponary.

if it imploded under its own weight then its an issue with how you built it not its size the hodgepodge at 4ft long is amazingly light if not fancy
