Hello everyone!I´m a begginer in the pirate theme, even thought I have been bulding Lego for 10 years and have always love pirates I have never been given a proper ship a try, but a couple of days back I found the Queen Anne´s Revenge set for 50€ off in a Swedish store and I just had to pick it up. By the time it arrived to it´s first destiny (my house) I had made my self so excided that I just ran up to my room and started to build an Armada Ship, before I even opened the QAR! After three days of work my first proper try at a ship finally stod ready on my desk top, and boy I was satisfied with it!

Here are some images of it:

Welcome to Eurobricks! 50 off is a very good deal, I'd say. But I'm afraid you forgot to link the pictures? EB itself has not enough storage for your pictures. I'd suggest you get yourself a free brickshelf (or even easier:) flickr account to do that if you don't already have one of them  :pir-sweet:

Ah, there it is, you've come to the right place for pirate-advice  :pir-classic:
As I said earlier, that cabin is awesome.

Nice ship!  My only minor gripe would be that you mixed yellow figs with flesh ones probably nicer to choose one of the two.  But as I said, that's only a minor point, the ship (and especially the cabin) are beautiful! :pir-wub:

That's quite a nice ship for a first! :thumbup:

She looks a bit short and wide, because the upper part of the bow is a bit far to the back.
It might look nicer if you'd make the bow a bit longer and then put the headrails in front of it.

Welcome! That looks pretty good for a "beginner"! I really like the back and the interior. Keep up the good work!
