I still do Lego - mostly Technic Truck Trialling (google it).

This ship is modelled in the SNOT mode (Studs Not On Top) so he's using the mathematical features of Lego to give smooth-ish shapes.

Very impressive!  :-))

The Grampian is new.
The builder has also built a Smit, Fairplay, and one of the Viking, black and yellow offshore boats.

I believe the Fairplay and the Viking went to corporate offices.

Oh, and apparently several other LEGO model ships.  :o
