[MOD] Double trouble, Blue Coat Fort

Recommended Posts

Having recently picked up another soldiers' fort on sale and not having done much to my pirate layout in a while, I wanted to change up the blue coats' fort (well it is less of a fort now, more of a fortified harbour, in my mind the main fort is not in the picture)... Anyways, I wanted to keep the sets looking pretty much the same as they come in this section, but just extend and add on to, generally integrate them in. I just snapped a few quick photos in the daylight, so enjoy.

IMO everything is a little flat, so my next plan is to build up some cliffs to the sides of this and add some height to the surrounding area, unfortunately all I am out of bricks to do this since I am still trying to build up the cliffs for my redcoat's fort. Anyways as always comments and suggestions for improvements are welcome.

That particular one was picked up for a couple of quid at a toyfair in the UK. He came with the wrong hat, but I had spares from an ebay purchase of a couple of vintage firefighters who both wore the admiral's hat. I have another one who came with the Eldorado fortress and in my Lego Pirate world, he still lives their with more of the older style bluecoats.

Reminds me of Pirates of the Caribbean IMO, it's looking good!

Are all the minifigs from the same year of sets!? They look kinda different.

I agree with the flat ground, you should elevate and maybe have all them all suited together, if you get me?

But anyway great pirate build, don't see much of them nowadays :))
