MOC - Atlantis Prowler Jr.

Recommended Posts

After quite some time hiding in the closet a small 6268 - "renegade runner" ship was found,

along with a couple of days to spend ! Later on I found out unused bricks from Lego set Atlantis

came up rather productive. So...feeling nostalgic after a long time without Lego, since playing with

those was like 20yrs ago I thought, why wouldnt I make those unused briks into something usefull ?

So there it is, I present you the newly born "Atlantis Prowler Jr." !

I used Lego 6286 as my quide for captains suite, available bricks on my desk brought me somewhere else, but ok,

since this is MOC, I think it should be fine !

Despite the fact this ship is as small as it gets, it was possible to make a dungeon with capture doors and front bars for

prisoner to have some light in his confined space ! The doors are blended in with their surroundings, so you wouldnt really know

theres anything hiding below.

Sides can be opened as with serious bigger ships, comes in handy really, couldnt live without it now

I updated the canon (Variant 6286 - Skulls Eye), modified myself, because original

was to deep in the hull and fixed on ground. This one can move left and forth and

has more place to move arround.

The captains quarters are high, just as I wanted them to be. I must say I'm satisfied with the result,

keeping in mind the limited resources I had at my disposal

The decor is massive, I thought if I'm putting some time into it I might make it also count. Theres a thin line between enough and too much,therefore I hope I reached the golden middle there...chains also add some flow to the silhouette.

From top its all visible, much more space to move arround, more deckspace also makes up for opticaly bigger ship.

As you can see all that is left original is compass, hull pieces, canon and sails, other bricks are all from Lego Atlantis Set.

Hope you like it, I do because it's the smallest ship in my fleet !

It's a lovely little mess, this ship, a bit like a tiny version of the Flying Dutchman.

Wreak some havoc with it!

Keep it up!

Even with limited resources you managed to creat a complicating MOC. Is it based on the schooner Scull's Eye of 1993 or on a simplier ship of Captain Iron Hook?

The renegade runner was my favorite ship as a kid (I also own the much bigger BSB). You have done a splendid work building on that small frame.

First line in the description. Based on Renegade Runner.

Perhaps, Im thinking about starting another project wich will include the white ship 6280, also found in the closet, and some pinkish to blue brick texture from girly LEGO stuff...should come thogether nicely using the right bricks, since pirates also needed companionship back in those days ;)
