Sometimes an admiral needs a rest and there for he has his "office".

Nice MOC. I like the anchor (except for the color) and the small windows beneath are also good.
A flag or banner would be a fine addition too, for the rest you did a good job :thumbup:

Good job!

The old pirates color scheme looks really good here!

I really don't see any reason for you to have an anchor and a cannon in the front yard...

The overall architechtural design is pretty good

:pir_yoda:

P.S. I notice that you have an interior. Why didn't you post any pics of that?

Wow!
I really love that. The colors really pop, it almost would fit in with a Fabuland theme. Excellent work!

One thing, could you please resize your picture to 800 x 600? Thanks! :pir-classic:

looking pretty good so far. where did you get all those nice windows? i can't seem to finde them anywhere for a reasonable price
there is one thing i would change though, make the roof to hang over the wall by one stud, otherwise the rain is going to run down the facade and spoil the colors there :wink:

Very nice I love the classic color scheme. The windows all look great. I thinky the anchor should be black.gray/brown. Really nice.

Wow, just awesome! And even better once I saw the interior pictures! That's a great mansion you built, keep up the good work.

Although, I do wish we could get a better view of that officer's desk. :pir-tongue:

Yeah, some new photos would have been great although you have shown us a lot already.

I simply love the good old classic colour scheme, very nostalgic considering that soon Pirates will be discontinued :pir-cry_sad:

The anchor might look better in black and SNOT though. :pir-tongue:

Very nice, a classic style LEGO house for the Admiral.

I like the simplistic stairs and rooms, it really brings me back.

An excellent build, it has the real classic pirates feeling thanks to the colours. It's a great building, and the interior is great as well.
The anchor outside is a nice touch. Job well done! :thumbup:

Oh come on! What admiral doesn't have an anchor and cannon in his frontyard.

You should see all the clutter in Zorro's frontyard... :pir-grin:

Aye, Phes is right! I personally think the anchor is a fantastic detail! A little large and yellow, but it's LEGO after all! It has a very classic feel to it this MOC, and it reminds me of sets such as the Eldorado Fortress and the Imperial Trading Post. I love the window arches, and the colour scheme is great too. :thumbup:

Perhaps the bottom floor could have had some more detail in it, but overall it has a nice interior, and the missing back wall adds some good play value, also adding to the classic-ness of the MOC. Top work there! I look forward to seeing more of your MOCs.
Perhaps this would be a good MOC to feature on the Classic-Pirates.com frontpage? What do you think bloggers? :pir-classic:

That looks fantastic. Maybe a little more exposed brickwork. Or giving the brick work you have a little more depth. Other than that this looks really nice. :jollyroger:

What's that you say?

Very very nice house!!! The only change I would make to it is adding in a real ship anchor (black and a lot smaller) and getting rid of the cannon, but that's just my opinion. :pir-blush:

Hey Kerntechniker,
It's good to see those new pics and even better to see that your Admirality is still "alive", so that you could take them! :pir-classic:

Are you planning on some minor tweeks or improvements, possibly based on feedback?
I like MOCs that evolve...
