So I have added some base wood texture to most of the ship. Continuing to work on that. I've done major updates to the rigging and added side cannons, the back cabin and plenty more since last update. Still working on textures and set dressing the main deck.
I've started to build the frame of the ship. Trying to get the base structure down before moving onto props. I will be moving onto the sides of the ship from here.
This is a small sample of reference I have gathered so far. I'm going for a triple-masted, wooden ship with around 24-30 cannons with a crew of about 100-120.
