A bit of backstory for this build:
About a month ago I bought an incomplete Black Seas Barracuda off of Ebay, and immediately started forming plans to rebuild it into a more 'realistic' ship, with a proper tumblehome. (tumblehome is the proper term for the angled sides of the ship.) After scouring the internet for inspiration, and a few Bricklink orders later, she started taking shape. I knew I wanted to keep the BSB's color scheme to pay homage to that classic set, but I definitely wanted her to have more firepower.
And so, I present the Lady Adeline:
The entire rear section of the Captain's cabin is attached with hinge plates to the bottom of the poop deck.
The fo'c'sle.
The figurehead.
The main deck.
Those old doors are life-savers, as I couldn't find any other door that would fit in the space without being too tall.
Poop deck. I decided to preserve the BSB's ship's wheel.
Interior of the Captain's cabin.
More firepower? Check.
Comments and critiques welcome!

Lady Adeline - Update
Recently I decided to rework the Lady Adeline, so I gave her a second deck with a full interior and a much better-looking bow. She's also a 16 gun brig instead of 12.
Here she is in all her glory.
The fo'c'sle..
12-pound chasers.
Poop deck, now with swivel guns.
The Captain's cabin.
