Although the two bitter enemies were stranded for a month on a rock right next to a tropical island (the Island being unreachable due to ferociouse lazer backed sharks) they had only just put behind their diferances, and when they received a message in a bottle proclaiming the peace between pirates and soldiers, the dinamic duo decided to rejoice with a shared cup of fine burmudan rum (the bottle having been discovered shortly after the first, and tucked away in a hidden nook on the in rock.

Nice story to go along with your small entry. It kind of makes my back ache looking st those poor fellows stuck on a rock surrounded by sharks with fricking lazer beams on their heads (or backs)

I sip of rum can change the environment everytime.

Nice MOC, small but a good story to back it up.

Great entry! I really like the "smoothness" of the MOC, the use of a brown Exo-Force Robot Arm as a tree trunk, and the story of the MOC.

My only suggestion is to replace the gray grid tiles with solid tiles in either tan or gray, as the grid tiles seem a bit out-of-place.

Everyone loves rum! I just don't love the grill tiles you used. The rest is very lovely!

I must agree with Bart - both on the rum part, and regarding the usage of grill tiles here... While I understand the notion of "finishing off" this little vignette with such a feature, I don't think grills are the most suitable piece to use. Other than that, I was wondering why it's only the redcoat who has a glass in his hand - discrimination anyone ? Or has the pirate already drunk up all the rum straight from the bottle... Talking of which - I did look hard and tried to find a bottle, but I finally gave up - this is indeed a small division entry, but it still could have used some higher-res pictures to really show people what's going on there... 640x480 would probably have been perfect - that way I could also really tell if there is an actual bottle stashed anywhere or not.

That aside, this still is a very nice vig! I like the style of it and I'll be looking forward to seeing more from you danny :) Good luck in the contest!

Thanks for replying, actualy instead of a finish the tiles were the first thing (aside from the tan bases) that I put on, I thought that for a small peice like this a frame would look nice, but since this contest is a democracy I'll see if I can change it before the deadline, oh shoot, I think that's past (not sure) I'll do so any way, and I'll show the bottle.
srry pics ar so small

oh. I lost with zero votes, but oh well, it's still the first not for contest vignette I've ever posted and I didn't expect to win.
