Quoted from the MOC page: "The brave Thaddeaus K Longflare captain of the Jolly Bob was sad to see his ship sink but grateful for the small islet that provided refuge. In the days since his unintentional marooning he built a shack from his sadly broken ship. He and Uncouth (the ship's parrot) sit with the treasure, awaiting rescue."

I bought the Pirate Building Set today and rediscovered the joy of a box of plain bricks. I didn't really want to build any of the suggested models so I created one. There is a bit of SNOT involved too, but only very basic.

I am death. A wingèd beast. I am born on the velvet wings of night and I'm hungry for a feast. I am the nemesis of the vole. My heart is black as coal. You could kill me with a trowel. I am an owl.

It's cute. Interesting building challenge you set for yourself.

I have to say, it was wonderful to be presented with a pile of plain bricks. I do love all the new shapes and mouldings that have become available in the past few years but the bricks... My head just overloaded on ideas, I must have rearranged that little MOC at least six times...
It'll be great fun when I get the castle one.
