A few moths ago I tried to convert a stock COAS galeon_l to Roter Lowie galeon of 1597, here is the tread:

But very soon I realized that a stock galeon_l is very different from Rotter Lowie in size and proportions and it would be very hard to convert her. It is easier to build the ship from scratch than trying to improve the stock one. In fact I don't really like to build this ship and I found a better replacement for stock galeon_l. It is a Geunieerde Provincien galeon, built in 1603 for Dutch East-India company. She had about the same size and armament (20 guns, 2 stern chasers) but has modern (for 17th century) rigging and is just prettier, as for me So here she is:
The hull is ready at the moment and I am working on decks and stern.
Screens will be posted soon.
