Question: Ship without sculptures

[Morghy]

One of the many problems that made me suspend the construction of my models, is my present and future inability to create sculptures and decorations in relief.
Which ships did not have them? Is there a specific type?

In general, smaller craft and working craft have simpler and fewer decorative features. However, most kits include cast metal or plastic reproductions of fancy carved bits. If you're scratch building, you're on your own. Have fun!

 

[Don Case]

There's a few colliers that the English navy bought for exploration ships that had minimal decoration. If you google "colliers" and go to the Wikipedia hit they give quite a list of famous colliers.

How about an unscrupulous modification of the dominant paradigm? Build any ship model you want and just leave off the hull decorations!

Che ne dici di una modifica senza scrupoli del paradigma dominante? Costruisci qualsiasi modello di nave desideri e tralascia le decorazioni dello scafo!

Bona idea....
