My second entry to this year's CCC, I present the English Trading Cog. More pictures and a more detailed description can be found on Flickr. This build was particularly challenging, perhaps even more so than my Spirit of Lenfald, because of the CCC's size restrictions. This made it very difficult to achieve good curvature in the hull, but with the help of some newly acquired Mixels joints, some Technic liftarms, hinges, and jumper plates, I made it happen. The rudder works and the spar and sail swivel with a range of motion of about 60 degrees. Overall I am very pleased with the result. Let me know what you think!

Nice build, Aardwolf! I think you did a nice job with the curvature. The only tweak, and this is super nitpicky, is that the sail looks like it's been wadded up. No seamen worth their salt would let their mainsail be wadded; it would be furled when not in use. Still, overall a very fine build.
