oDDerFisken Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) I had an idea to build an island to some shipwrecked pirates.. and i think i succeded allright. What do you think? The point was to make this look like the remainings of a ship. The remainings of the mast is the weird wannabe-tree. And the pirates have made a part of the hull to a wall in thier hut. The folder Please post your comments :-) Uhh.. btw,, just found out: it is my one-year anniversary in here today.. WEHUU :-D Edited October 21, 2007 by oDDerFisken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asuka Posted October 21, 2007 A very charming and nice work, you did a really good job with transforming the shipwreck and the integration of it as palisades and tower into your fine landscape! *sweet* A MOC that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Green Hair Posted October 21, 2007 Nice little island! *y* Is there enything inside the hut? It really looks like ship remains, but shouldn't the tower be completely brown? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain K. Posted October 21, 2007 Is very beautiful! I like it. A little quiet and dreamy island. *wub* Also gives treasures there ??? Capt. K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) Is there enything inside the hut?It really looks like ship remains, but shouldn't the tower be completely brown? The brown one, or the part with the tower?? I wanted it to look like it was an old fortress or something, and they have rebuild the tower with driftwood. Also gives treasures there ???I'm not sure i quiet get your question. If it is if there is any treasures on the island, the answer is no.. at the moment.. but maybe later, if i find a good place for them.I'm glad you like my MOC :'-) Edited October 21, 2007 by oDDerFisken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lt. Col. Thok Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) Very nice! I like the style of the rotting ship as a fort. The mast-tree comment is also funny. EDIT: 440 posts; wow, that was fast. Edited October 21, 2007 by Lt. Col. Thok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zouave Posted October 21, 2007 It's a nice moc, but it looks more like a pirate outpost than a shipwreck. Everything is too nice and tidy. Such as there's a tower. But overall this is a very nice moc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But overall this is a very nice moc. Ofcourse it's nice and tidy. If you had to live on an island like that wouldn't you try to clean up a bit, so it wasn't one big mess? i would.. and so would my pirates.. thats why it's so tidy :-P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oDDerFisken Posted October 21, 2007 Well if thats your aim, you did really wel *y* Thank you very much *sweet* By the way.. though you might would like a closer look the the pirates so took another picture.. here you go: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
El Bucanero Posted October 21, 2007 Splendid little job oDDerFisken! I'd be very happy if TLC released sets like these if they ever start a new pirate line. I'm not sure i quiet get your question. If it is if there is any treasures on the island, the answer is no.. at the moment.. but maybe later, if i find a good place for them.I'm glad you like my MOC :'-) I believe Captain K is German. "Gibt es schatzen" is literally translated: Gives it treasure? Not literally translated it means: Is there treasure? I hope that answers your question. ;-) Congratulations with your EB B-day btw!!

Mister Phes Posted October 21, 2007 Mr oDDerFisken, what a wonderous joy it must be to have too much spare time and it's something I would like quite a bit. Quite a nice island you've built, I think all the greenery really sets it off. I also like the old fellow with the beard but perhaps he could do with a different mini-fiugre head to give him more charater - the traditional head with its dotty eyes looks a bit bland.

Siegfried Posted October 21, 2007 That's cool! *sweet* I do feel a bit sorry for those pirates if there is strong wave. *sing* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadows Posted October 22, 2007 Some nice work there. I'm always happy to see some Pirates love shown. In this case, it's an ecclectic mix, clearly these guys have seen some battles and wear the captured clothes and armour of the enemies they defeated. The fates haven't been kind to them though and now they're just trying to get by as well as they can. Any plans to rescue them or send them on adventures? That's cool! *sweet* I do feel a bit sorry for those pirates if there is strong wave. *sing* Probably how they ended up in this predicament in the first place :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 22, 2007 Any plans to rescue them or send them on adventures?Ehm.. dunno.. maybe. Don't you think these guys have had enough adventures already? ;-) They are ended up on an islandAt the moment i'm wondering how i can improve it. (So Mister Phes i've heard you and i'm thinking what will be the best head to put on him..) Uhh.. baout the wave: yeah it could be a wave, a stormof some kind or a tornado. Haven't thought that all through.. but lets say it's a mix X-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted October 22, 2007 What did they do with the sails and mast from ship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 22, 2007 What did they do with the sails and mast from ship? argh.. how would i know?? Haven't thought of that.. ehm.. maybe they.. made it to pirateflags.. ehm.. or.. knittet something (they have to do something if they do not wan't to bore themselves to death) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capn Frank Posted October 22, 2007 What did they do with the sails and mast from ship? Maybe they lost it and that's why they're crash landed at the island ;-) Nice little island BTW *y* The only thing i don't know about that the black portion seems a little high for a ruined tower. The characters look great in those rag-tag outfits :-) Would you consider this MOC a military or non-military? I'm having a hard time deciding where to put it in the Index of Land-Based MOCs. I put it in row 7 of military for now. P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 22, 2007 The only thing i don't know about that the black portion seems a little high for a ruined tower. Yeah maybe you are right.. i'll figure out how to make it better when i do my improvements Would you consider this MOC a military or non-military?I'm having a hard time deciding where to put it in the Index of Land-Based MOCs. I put it in row 7 of military for now. Took a short look on the index, at since they've got a cannon on my island, and all the non-military MOC's is pretty harmless i think it is right to put it in the military category Uhhh.. but why is this one is the non-military??Lighthouse - with cannons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capn Frank Posted October 22, 2007 ...Uhhh.. but why is this one is the non-military??Lighthouse - with cannons Currently working on rearranging all that index properly and backing it up at the same time. :-$ Just haven't gotten that far.

Mister Phes Posted October 22, 2007 argh.. how would i know?? You're the almighty creator so you're the one that decides how they got there and what happens to them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 23, 2007 You're the almighty creator so you're the one that decides how they got there and what happens to them! Ahh okay.. thats why.. ehm.. i'll figure something out. Promise.. but you will have to wait, till i've made the improvements on th island. Mkay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted October 23, 2007 It's not really an important question. I thought I'd ask for the hell out it. What improvements are you going to make? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Roger Posted October 23, 2007 Great MOC...i don't like the pirate minifigs with soldiers accesories, because i don't understand why they use that accesories. But i Like the MOC anyway...is a good island that bring me memories of my MOC "Captain Seawolf's tower" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oDDerFisken Posted October 23, 2007 What improvements are you going to make? First of all i will remake the old fellow. New head, a hat maybe. Then i'm thinking to make the tower look more like a mix of an old ruin and driftwood. I was also thinking of making a place for a treasure - if i can find the space. Any other ideas? ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
