jifel Posted March 29, 2009 Wow, that is amazing! I especially love how it is several levels. That must have taken an obscene amount of bricks. jifel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Blackmoor Posted March 29, 2009 Awesome, although words can almost not describe. I think this is the most ideal port for a sailor. So many features, action and details. The buildings are a big +, the way you tried new techniques is awesome. I think the streets will look even better if you use 1x1 round plates on it. I like the layout of the port too, as mentioned with several levels. Do the buildings have an interior? The pictures with the Fire Hornet are very nice. Great creation!!

Bricks Posted March 29, 2009 That's really awesome, mate I like the stepped assembly of this creation with little stairs and nice pattern! The other beautiful things are the ''Medieval Market''-designed houses. Holy...the church is perfect 'Bricks' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derfel Cadarn Posted March 29, 2009 Thanks for the comments, i would like to do the streets with the round 1x1, and i intend to order some and try it out. Not reali sure about a piece count, id say theres definatly a LOT And yes, all the buildings have an interior, although i havnt furnished wat cant be seen.

Zorro Posted March 30, 2009 Looks amazing, the details and I love the houses you build. A very big from me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asuka Posted March 30, 2009 A wonderful port full of life indeed, with many fantastic buildings! The dock´s very impressive and detailed, the shellfish stall´s well armed, the steering wheel at the church facade works great, the inn looks fine with that neat balustrade, the old pirate´s retirement home´s my favorite house and the varied use of doors for canopies is pretty smart. It´s a magnificent diorama, especially together with your already striking HMS Fire Hornet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commodore Hornbricker Posted March 30, 2009 One of my all time favorites. The detail and colors really bring it to life. Very very impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k_peek_2000 Posted March 30, 2009 For some reason this display instantly reminds me of the Castle Market set. I even at first thought you used some of the same buildings but then later checked and saw they were different. Brilliant work my friend!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
74louloute Posted March 30, 2009 Oh my god, it should be forbidden to have so much talent!! Your MOC is so incredible and impressive. The picture with the Fire Hornet are wonderful too. How much time did you spend on this huge project ? Anyway, congratulations ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derfel Cadarn Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks for all the great comments. It took me about a week to design the base, and another week to design the houses. I built the houses seperatly so they can be removed for easier transportation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honeybee Posted March 31, 2009 The end result does look very impressive, probably the best port ive ever seen. So much detail and i love how you've used wooden doors for roofs. Great work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derfel Cadarn Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks, ive got so many wooden doors and ive been meaning to use them for something. Im going to try and make a full roof out of them on my next moc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Blackmoor Posted April 1, 2009 I'm defenitely looking forward to your next MOCs, they are pretty good! Keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Steve Posted April 1, 2009 Amazing Detail! I really like how complete it is. You have done a great job making this look and feel like a real working port. The pirates checking out the girl in the bikini is hilarious, as well as the monkey...Very funny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honeybee Posted April 3, 2009 Thanks for uploading the pictures of the buildings you made for your port. I wanted to have a better look at them. Nice work, i mite have to borrow a few ideas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwarfinator Posted April 4, 2009 Holy %$#@! That thing is huge! It looks... amazing. Where did you get all the bricks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Blackmoor Posted April 4, 2009 BrickLink is a huge source of bricks, almost everyone gets his bricks there. Have fun there and less your thirst for bricks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martinsuper Posted April 6, 2009 Words cannot say how impressed I am by the port and the ship. The thing that sticks out the most to me is that you have managed to show your artistic style in the port and the ship and have them look like they belong together. The "feeling" of both is the same. Very well done! Makes my project look like child's play! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
