Behold the magnificence of my favourite ship of all time, the Fighting Téméraire!

HISTORIC INFORMATION
   At the battle of Trafalgar, this ship was locked in mortal combat between the French Ships Fougueux and Redoubtable. The ship overpowered the crew of the Fougueux in only ten minutes, before turning their attention to the Redoubtable, where Captain Lucas and his men were overrun by Téméraire's crew with help from the Victory.

This ship is a testament to the glory of the Royal Navy, and its splendour.

BUILD INFORMATION
   The ship at the moment has no interior, but it will be coming soon. You may notice that there are a few cannons on the first gundeck as a starter to that.
   The ship at the moment comes in two formats: dark yellow and black, and blue and bright yellow. More may be to come.

For now, though, I give you the HMS Téméraire!

Thanks for being (almost weirdly) supportive to the cause! I'm going to try and make the interior as accurate as possible.

Nice one, allthough I'm not 100% on this but I think that there should be 28 guns on the upper gun deck instead of 30, and 2 guns on the forecastle instead. Nice sails indeed. And that ridiculously long flag on the foremast x)

I don't think so.
I used the original plans for the Téméraire, so my guns are accurate. Also, the only guns they ever had on the fo'c'sle were the carronades. Thanks for the sail praise, and yeah, I like my ensigns!

On the victory atleast there are 2 12pounders and 2 corronades on the focsle. Just never seen a 28-30-30 gun configuration before. Oh btw the hull proportion, the hold should be bigger :p Like extend the keel to 3 blocks further down.

Yeah, I know. I wasn't too happy with the hull shape, depth, or look, but there we go. I couldn't be bothered to change it. And before you say: 'Oh, Grudman, sometimes you have to start again', I really just wanted a ship.
And also, again, I used the original plan, so please can that debate end. I can send you the picture if you really want it.
And the Victory only had 68-pdr. carronades on its fo'c'sle, I checked in a couple of history books I have.
Sorry, I know this comment is more salty than McDonald's bacon, but I try to use facts when building.
