where does those black front plate of L'Océan came from? I know that those additional plate on front came from plans of Commerce de Marseille, but I cannot find pictures or models with those front plates planted black.
Commerce de Marseilles in its early colors.
Model of Commerce de marseilles at musée de la Marine
Neither of those two have black front, or distinctive front plate.
I want to ask, if it is hard to remodel entire ship and remove those front plate because Game-labs didn't have plans for L'Océan itself, could you guys just change basic paint of L'Océan to paint scheme of la Montagne(which is already in game), or paint shceme of L'Océan in 1806, which is presented on model at musée national de la Marine?
paint of La Montagne, painted by Philippe-Jacques de Loutherbourge, 1794. (This paint scheme is already in game as "montagne" pattern)
model of L'Océan at musée national de la Marine. (Similar to ingame 'Marseile' pattern in game)
By the description of musée national de la Marine, this model is made in 1811, when L'Océan is still active, based on the L'Océan after overhaul in 1806. So I think this is most hitorically acurrate model of L'Océan.
