Vig. 90cI was a bit bored and decided to try and make a quick pirate moc. I wanted to get a wave which used a nice barrell design. Its a first test with the cuved bricks. It propably still needs a bit of refining but i think it could work well.

Replace that pirate with General Armendariz.... 
I really like the wave technique. I think the middle is a little square though. Why are there flowers on the island?
EDIT: Fixed an emoticon and typo.

Great idea!
I think that wave looks great already! I've never seen something like this before.
Perhaps some 1x1 round white transparant plates will work on the water, it looks like foam and splashing water.
The minifig's head fits perfect in here.
Nice job!

LOL, that's a funny scene. I agree with the Armendariz suggestion

Yeah i think i mite next try it with transperant bricks. And i will try some alternate parts to get the angles on the inside of the wave better.

I'm looking forward to the results! I think it will look great. Oh and don't forget the good general.

It would be funny with Armendarizabeznez. It shows his sense of direction has departed, Only days before he was on my ship with his mates, and now his back on his own.
Why do the Bluecoats keep him as a General if he is always getting lost, has no ship and has never lead a single battle?
I love the way the Pirate doesnt want to hit the trees. You could just imagine the snake saying "Oh cr..."

This is nice. I like the way you built the wave. The minifig in the bucket is great. I sure hope he doesn't hit his head on that rock.

That is one of the best LEGO waves I've seen. 
The whole MOC is so sleek while still retaining a nice texture. My favorite part though has to be the pirate "surfing".
Really nice work!

This is great, and nicely done.
I recently tried making waves myself out of slopes and studded plates, but I think this technique is great, and the vig comical to boot!

I don't see a rock? I think it's a very nice MOC.
