What a more than beautiful model and presentation.  
I really love the way you also modeled the individual structural parts and show how they are connected.  
What kind of sail boat is this? As a naval architect and sailor, I do not recognize the sailplan, it looks like a dhow, but that hull is different.  
What was your purpose for modeling this vessel?

Hi Gerard  
This is exactly this unit is:

> **[The Leudo 1913 - Ancre](https://ancre.fr/en/monograph/125-le-leudo-1913.html)**
>
> The leudo was a ship-of-all-trades, used as a commercial trading vessel for the transportation of various products.
> 100-page booklet with more than 250 photographs nand drawings, in color when available.

Model created for a modeling publishing house. Thank you for the praise, coming from professionals like you, it gives me motivation, especially since I am self-taught.  
You once placed an ad like this:

> [@Freelance 3D modeling job for someone with a maritime background](https://discourse.mcneel.com/t/freelance-3d-modeling-job-for-someone-with-a-maritime-background/159658):
>
> For the 3D modeling of five large vessels for presentational purposes, we are looking for a 3D modeler. The 3D hull shapes will be available and you have to model the superstructure, deck equipment etc. from a GA and photo’s. As the 3D model will not be used for photorealistic renderings, the 3D modeling doesn’t need to be highly detailed but has to give an attractive and recognizable representation of the real vessels. Part of the purpose for these 3D models is designing deck loads, so the 3D …

Is the topic still relevant?

Brilliant work! Many thanks for posting. Your images were enough to lead me to quit trying to make AI imaging work for my Rhino3D marine work and just stick with Rhino. I have worked with Bob Perry (well known and revered yacht designer) for the last 10 years converting his excellent 2d CAD work into Rhino3D ‘virtual models’ for client review and presentation rendering but he told me just yesterday to quite wasting my time with AI to try and match the level of realism I was eventually achieve for his designs and stick with my Rhino workflow. His words as to my obsession as of late with was, ‘You are too good for that…’ Thanks for sharing here Maciek, I really like the sketch render mode and the sepia tones are perfect for this historical craft.
