Pillaging and Liberating (Final)

Recommended Posts

thindexedgif.gif Vig. 27d

I edited this post, HERE WE GO for the final round ( maybe :pir_laugh2: ) !

I / The entry

So, this is it :

I know it looks Messy, but I tried to make a pillage at it best! and for me, a pillage IS a messy thing! I also wanted to make it as if it was a part of a huge scene going on, a part of a way taller island, so I made it to have some details on each sides, I'm sorry too, but I can't really shows all the details in 6 pics... if you want to see more, just ask ^^ ( I put a bed in the jail on the lighthouse, I detailled a little the place where there is the marine canon , there is a skeleton cow on the ground etc etc etc... but I really can't show everything in 6 pics^^ )

ADDED: if you want to see how this town looked like before the attack, here it is ( this is not the entry! the entry is lower ^^) : One week ago....

Background of the scene

3 days ago, the marines captured Mickael, on of the strongest man and a close friend of "Captain Whitebeard" , he was searching in this city to gather information about a legendary ruby that is supposed to be hidden somewhere in this little village...

The captain Whitebeard and his crew are now attacking a little village, first, he want to free Mickael, secondly, he decided that if he can't search for the treasure peacefully, he'll burn this village entirely until he'll fin it, plus, this little village is badly defended by a very little garrison, more an outpost than a garrison ( no more than 6 men), so he's pretty sure to win.

Meanwhile the marines were preparing to transfer Mickael to see the Governor, on another island, because he needs to Interrogate him, just when the pirates attacked !

Overview

overview of the attack, you can see a sank ship they shot while they were quite far, to avoid the marines to respond to their attack. They attacked exactly when the marines were preparing to transfer the prisoner , so they took them by surprise.

1.jpg

Tavern

in the tavern of the docks, we can see that two men of the crew, John and Oswald, closed the door and they are going to... hum.. I think you can guess by yourself, the poor lady Deborah and Abigail can't do anything, they tried, but with a broom and a teacup, that's hard to defend.... to the right of the tavern we can see that the tricks that Denis and his father Karl wanted to do on Bob was bad timed, Denis has been killed before his father was able to drop the water on Bob, well.. it kind of worked.. Bob will be wet soon..

We can also see a character I didn't introduced hiding in a room, a shovel in his hands, it's Nick.

2.jpg

Professor's house

here we can clearly see Nick, at the left of the pictures, and inside the professor jester's house, the professor Jester died, Timmy "the boy" killed him, then he searched for treasures or things he can sell in the house... but didn't find anything, so he went out.. happily for Gustav, that was digging in the cave, looking for the ruby, Timmy didn't find the trap under the professor's bed... but Gustav just saw some blood falling from the trap.. so he step back a little, and now he don't really know what to do^^ you can also see Kyle the hermit , between the two houses, trying to escape from Timmy, crawling, with a bad wound on his head.

3.jpg

the beach and the forest

on this pic I'll describe only the upper part, the lower part will be described with the next pic ^^ , on the top left we can see the prisoners escaping, the old pirate is stealing a weapon to fight, while Mickael is using the chain he was imprisoned with as a weapon to kill Imperialscout, the islander tried to run away but the commander was waiting for him and just cut one of his arms, aouch ! To the right we can see Annia fighting with Tom, while her husband Whitebeard his running to help her, killing Dreamweb on the move. On the beach James killed the old jack, and now he is achieving Dave. You can also see, in the Lighthouse, that Mike is loading a canon, a little too late, Wirt, on the boat, was faster.

4.jpg

the town square

On this picture, we can see a lot of things, we can see Zorro3999 on the dock, drunk because he lost his favourite hat , he is trying to go and fight the pirates, but .. he stopped to vomit^^ Lower on the picture we can see kyle the angry merchant, who took a barrels and tried to extinguish the fire, but while he was running to the beach with the barrel he took on the dock ( the barrel was used to extinguish the fire on the boat ) Spearman Toni stopped him with his spear, poor kyle.. Lower again, to the left, we can see MR and Mrs Johnson, Mister johnson was shoot by a pirate, and now his wife has just been shot by Nesson, while she was crying her lost husband. Just bottom Nesson, we can see Erdbeeris1, just hit by the Balthazar 's rifle butt, just after this one killed Sergio, that lye on the ground. we can also see Joe, burnt to death while he was trying to escape from the fire. to the top left we can see the stranger fighting against Jenny, and totally on the bottom of the pic there is Timmy who stole the Kyle "the hermit" 's arbalest , and now he is watching him crawling in attempt to runaway.. he likes to see people crawls in their blood. behind the tavern , on the dock , we can also see Pedro drowning the mayor Bartholomew.

5.jpg

the lighthouse

we can see on this last pic , on the top, another character I didn't presented, because I forgot, it's a man that lives in the village and like to take a nap on the top of the lighthouse,his name is Pierre, the attack woke him up, he have been shot before he can even yawn.. now he's bleeding to the ground.. on the lower part of the lighthouse, we can see paul, one of the marines, he was shot by the pirates too.. we can see clearly on this image that Wirt was faster to shoot than Mike ^^

My opinion:

Good looking contest entry, and since it is a Work In Progress, you can still make a lot of improvements.

PS: i would like to have a lego-loving girlfriend :pir_kiss: like you as well...If she becomes available on the market again, please PM me :pir_laugh2:

Possible improvements:

1) Add some "undeep" water near the coastline, I can see what you did near the coastline and I dont know if that aspect is yet finished, but i still think some colorchange can be a positive thing.

I would add this escpeccialy where the boat has stranded.

2) The stranded boat: see point 1, and I would add some loose wooden planks or other remnants (it looks to "complete" for an old stranded boat, I refer to, it as old since the sails and ropes are removed:rotten away. PS: THIS IS A GREAT IDEA TO add in a harbour !!! :thumbup:

3) I would give your pirate ship some kind of steeringwheel, this adds to realism: I think I heard you say you didnt have much piraty stuff, and no hulls either (I can be wrong but if I remember you saying something like that, and also you needed the BSB !) SO: you build a beautifull ship for having so few pirate bricks/hulls. i must say the same about your sails: another :thumbup:

4)the yellow sand goes over to green grass: a bit abrupt to my taste.... but thats just MHO.

5)the roof of ya light house is brown, but you are using stonecolored bricks, Ithink a stone building like a lighthouse deserves a stone roof. in this case I would go for black. (or I would try this at least, if you have please excuse me: just trowing up suggestions here!) Black goes ,IMHO, better with the other bricks of the lighthouse anyway.

6)add more minifigs , but I'm sure you know that, you stated it is a work in progress....

The fact I added "possible improvements" does not state I do not like your MOC

! I just "designed" a new rating system that reflects as much details as possible.

My rating: zorro3999 loves :pir-wub: your girlfr....ERRHH....your contest entry VERY MUCH :thumbup: Keep up the good work, Guss ! Its amazing how much you can do with so few "pure" piratebricks !

for now, a 9/10, but obviousqly that can change...

zorro3999 loves pirate_wubnew.gif your girlfr....ERRHH....

sorry she's mine, and she'll never be on the market again :tongue: .

1) Add some "undeep" water near the coastline, I can see what you did near the coastline and I dont know if that aspect is yet finished, but i still think some colorchange can be a positive thing.

I would add this escpeccialy where the boat has stranded.

unfortunately I just have a few light-blue tiles... so I ll try to manage something but .. I don't really know how I'm going to do!

2) The stranded boat: see point 1, and I would add some loose wooden planks or other remnants (it looks to "complete" for an old stranded boat, I refer to, it as old since the sails and ropes are removed:rotten away. PS: THIS IS A GREAT IDEA TO add in a harbour !!! default_thumbup.gif

this boat is not finished, I think I'm going to make it looks like it just sinked , like if it was destroyed by the pirates.

3) I would give your pirate ship some kind of steeringwheel, this adds to realism: I think I heard you say you didnt have much piraty stuff, and no hulls either (I can be wrong but if I remember you saying something like that, and also you needed the BSB !) SO: you build a beautifull ship for having so few pirate bricks/hulls. i must say the same about your sails: another default_thumbup.gif

you're right, I have no hulls and not a lot of pirate stuffs and I really want the BSB ^^ ( but I don't really think I can win.. but who knows, with good advice like yours ^^ )

I was thinking to add a steering wheels, but I'm still looking for a way to makes it looks nice ^^

4)the yellow sand goes over to green grass: a bit abrupt to my taste.... but thats just MHO.

I really think the same, I'm going to modify it !

5)the roof of ya light house is brown, but you are using stonecolored bricks, Ithink a stone building like a lighthouse deserves a stone roof. in this case I would go for black. (or I would try this at least, if you have please excuse me: just trowing up suggestions here!) Black goes ,IMHO, better with the other bricks of the lighthouse anyway.

I tried to makes it black or grey, but I still prefer it brown, make it look like they did a wooden roof, and you'll notice that the roof inside the lighthouse is grey, as if it was built with stones, to make it more solid to support the high part of the lighthouse. well.. I just noticed that I didn't make a picture that shows the inside of it :blush:

6)add more minifigs , but I'm sure you know that, you stated it is a work in progress....

yes of course^^ there will be something like 15 minifigs I think , maybe more

and there will be a lot more details when It will be finished ^^

anyway , thanks for all your advices and for your kind words ^^

It's a really nice village, but I have a feeling that one doesn't win this contest just by making a pirate-themed village - there has to be something special going on with the MOC, with so many talented builders participating in the contest. The winning entries just have to stand out somehow. So I'm not trying to put your creation down or anything, but I hope you're adding some sort of catch to that village of yours as you build it up. You're already at such a great start!

I'm making a village for my large entry as well, but there's definitely a twist involved in it! :wink:

I like the cute little ship, the sinking ship and the brown roof. But I think the shoreline could use some work, like replacing the technic bricks and making some irregularity at the (nicely sloped btw) beach, now it is too straight. And the sinking ship could use some bubbles and wreckage around it, if you weren't planning on that already.

thanks Sandy, that's just the "background" the .. "décor" ( can I say that in English ? ) , I'll try to make something original... but off course with all the talented builders here, I'm pretty sure I'll not make a moc that can win... I just came out of my dark age, and I don't have the talent to make a "amazing" moc, but at least I'll try ^^

hehe I'll wait to see your village then ^^ so I can put it down :P I'm joking ^^

Fluyt : thanks ^^ the technic bricks is temporary, there will be a burning building here ( I just put this bricks to avoid loosing my flames. ) , bubbles ? hey that's a nice Idea ! I was planning to put some wreckage , but I didn't think I can put bubbles, thanks !

This is looking really nice Guss! I really like your little buildings and the ship is looking lovely.

For the shallower water, instead of light blue you could intersperse some white plates together with the blue to give a good effect.

I'm excited to see and comment on the finished product!

I would give you a 10 for creativity, for making a Pirate scene with the bricks that come from different themes.

I am waiting anctiously for your final version !

sorry she's mine, and she'll never be on the market again :tongue: .

OH, WE ARE BEING GREEDY, ARE WE !!!

WELL,

I am currently digitalizing her, with the picture of her hand, wrist and forearm I should be able to recreate her on my PC.

After that, and with my digitalization,

I will have her DNA calculated by the University of Brussels (they have some experience at this).

With her DNA as a base, I can make the necessary changes to develop my perfect woman.

Third and last step will be to artificially generate this DNA and plant it in an embryo...letting it grow for 18 years.

According to my computer she should look like this:

She has some really nice pics on there, I really love her costumes as well: Emeraldas looks great, but she looks in-cre-di-ble good as Gatekeeper jasmine, she a born cosplayer with natural "Elvish" looks. :thumbup:

Thanks for the links, my cousin and her husband (both 26) love cosplaying as well (W-O-W, middle ages and LOTR), but I dont remember links to their pages.

I like how you did little bios on each character in your MOC. Your MOC is going along great. The pirate ship that you created is great! Are those custom sails or did you get them off the websit? You just have amazing detail. The dock leading onto land is really good. The beach, nice affect by slanting it. Your buildings are very well done. I like that you included so much minifigs. That always makes the MOC better. The fire in the middle of the street and the forest in the back left. Perfect! I like how you made the pirates on the street stealing treasure. Also, your pictures on the inside of the buildings are great! This is like a town center and I would love to own your MOC and add it to my collection.

Possible Improvements

Well, there is not much for me to say, but I do have one thing in my mind.

1) The only thing you could add is some blood.

Other than that, it is perfect.

Overall- You have done a great job on your MOC and I see you put a lot of effort and major detail into this MOC. I think you have a pretty good chance of winning.

thanks a lot legoking ! it seems that you like my mocs, and I'm really glad of it^^

Are those custom sails or did you get them off the websit?

it is custom sails I did, I found an old and huge piece of paper in our "personal workshop" ( a little corner of our apartment my girlfriend use to make her cosplay ) , I cut sails in it and both the textures and colours were perfect, so I decided this piece of paper will be my sails databade :P ,only the front sail of the pirate ship is official,the one with the skull, it is from the 6261 raft raiders , the only "big" pirate set I have ^^

I think I'm going to add some details, maybe some blood ^^ and take the final pictures, then edit the background in photoshop this weekend !
