Great MOC, once again, is this for JRC? I always like your landscaping, and the monkey who stole the hat. Awesome! :pir-classic:

Oh there is a lot of fun on this island !
The canon ball rebunding the helmet is totally absurd but very funny !!  :pir_laugh2:
The other details I like are that cute little bridge, and the stack of barrels !

I really like the way you made the roof on the right.

Great job, SpringOwl ! (Winter might be better at the moment huh ? :pir-tongue: )

You did a really nice MOC.  I like the monkey with the hat and the cannon ball bouncing off of the boat.  I also like how you didn't make you water and land texture smooth.  The studs on the water give it a really nice texture.  A lot of people have been making their deck, land, and water surfaces too smooth and it doesn't look like Lego anymore when they do that.  Really nice MOC. :pir-classic:

Great creation SpringSmurf (Sly Owl)
It's is really full of action and detail.  :thumbup:

What I like the most, is that bouncing of cannonball.  :pir_laugh2:

Poor fellow walking of that plank, ehh paddle.
I don't really like that guy with the fedora.

Well done.  :thumbup:

This is such a lovely MOC. The best part is the goat on the rooftop if you ask me. I'm still wondering how you stacked the barrels. What keeps them standing like that?

Such a funny MOC.  

I absolutely love the canon ball.  The path is just too funny.

I'm jealous of some of your building parts, this just looks like it was too much fun to build.

Great MOC - You have been building a lot lately.  Still one of the best MOCers around.  The cannon ball ricochet really made me laugh.  Great job in you usual amazing style.

Very nicely done slyowl, great detail and action as usual, but the thing that strikes me most is that you have chosen a studded water which is quite unlike you, but it works great here. Great pirate moc, i might have to check out the JRC.

'SpringSmurf' - this is the work of a genius ! :pir-classic:
Very funny MOC which proves that oars can be used to walk-the-plank, cannonballs do bounce off pirates hats and pirates can have anger management issues with monkeys, oh yeah they like to dress up like a king or something ! :pir_laugh2:

Good luck! :pir-classic:

What a stunning creation again SlyOwl! Yet so funny again! The cannonball bouncing off the Spaniard's helmet for example!
Awesome detailing, and the 'studded' sea looks great. :pir-classic:
There is many, many more on this MOC and I can comment about it for ages. :pir_laugh2:
Nice work!

Very nice MOC Slyowl! You have, once again, outdone yourself.
I love the Pirate King and the small building above him, as well as that fire (to lure ships to the cliffs/pirates, I presume?).

I put this straight onto the frontpage!

I was just thinking that you should add a pirate treasure cave or prison for the soldiers build into your rockery there.  That would look really cool. :pir-classic:

An impressive MOC SlyOwl!
I love the cannonball bouncing off against the helmet.
Also, I like the use of the the transparent red crown as a drink.

A nice contrast between this and you Staff entry Sly, you have been very busy in the last few months  :pir-wub: Great techniques and nice parts usage on both MOCs.

Cheers.
