Experimenting...

Been toying with making a 3d model of Nelsons flagship the 'H.M.S Victory' in Inventor lately, and its been proving difficult to achieve.

The main problems are -

1. The shear size of the thing, its massive
2. The awkward shapes its made out of, its curvy structure is proving hard to recreate in 3d.

Might have to go about maing a wirefame model of it first, and build on it from there I reakon. Tried to make it using extrude tools but couldnt fillet it enough to make it look like it can cut through water as easily as the real thing can. have to make it look as realistic as I can
