Awesome mate! Great job on the forced perspective! Have you considered turning one of those boats into a tartana? I think the scene would look more diverse that way - but even as it is right now, it's still very cool... Btw, is there any backstory to this (despite the fact it says more than words :P)?

Your right. all that wonderful detail says a lot more than you can. :pir-classic:

Great moc. Though I don't quite "get it" if you know what I mean... :pir-sceptic:

A great port scene (the setup reminds me a lot of SlyOwl's port) with lots of action going on everywhere. The soldier's head just peeping above the fort's wall is a neat little detail :pir_laugh2:

No no backstory. I may change the boats should I decide to bring this to BrickWorld, but for the sake of these photographs I doubt anything will change.

Also I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'get' but I still think that this MOC stands along as an Imperial fort on a mountain with the typical pirate shenanigans going around.
What's that you say?

Theres nothing more classic than a pillaging seen! :pir_laugh2: All the little details are perfect, especially the bridge collapsing on that soldier.

All right. But do you mean imperials doing piratey shenanigans. Either way I really really like it.

This is great, totally cool. Love all the detail packed in a relatively small space. I envy your skills.

Thanks everyone. If only my photography were a little better. I promise it looked much better IRL. Something must have been wrong with the contrast of my camera. I think its the contrast at least. :pir-tongue:

This looks pretty good, I always like seeing ports with the drunk pirates pillaging. I like the way you made the dock start to fall with the soldier on it, well done. :pir-classic:

Nice MOC. I like the pirate who is starting a fire in the house and the soldier on the bridge is very funny. :pir-tongue:

A very classical, yet very great creation! MOC's about skirmishes between soldiers and pirates always turn out to be great scenes, and this is no exception :pir-classic:
The minifigs don't move but it's still a very lively MOC. I have nothing to complain about :pir-sweet: good job!

I love it! The small port is filled with details, the fire/chimney is very nice too.
