Check out this thread to read more about that.
This way you can create some more variation in the Lego heads.

Some more Jack Sparrow's are added to the library (designed by BS member  Stewtrooper06).
The library currently contains about 162 torso designs.
Today I had to remove 1 link since it was no longer working.
I'm thinking of storing them all locally on my PC as a backup...

EDIT: I could find back the lost torso (Spanish Pikeman), the user had put it in another map in his BS folder.

I can hardly even draw stick figures much less make something that detailed .... even with a computer lol.

I could TRY but it would probably look pathetic.

You will learn fast enough Chris.
Its just a matter of (a lot of) patience and exercise.

I've been thinking of something... Wouldn't it be easier if we divide the categories in to two? I've been looking for navy torso but they are harder to find in between all of those war torsos. So don't you think it's easier to divide them into War and Navy?

What do you mean with war? Would that be land army?
And what to do with those decals that are neither of those? Like Napoleon (head of army including Navy), Czar Alexander, Islanders, ... .
Maybe we could only do this for the Britain and France categories.

I do agree we might need more structure as the library grows.
I'm not sure yet what is best. Need to think...

Yes, I meant land army with war. I think you should put Emperors, Kings and such under Land army, Islanders under official pirates or other.

Anyway, I made some demos! And they I think these torsos would be beautiful when made on that nice shiny paper.

Sorry for the not-so-good picture quality.

The torso of Admiral Norrington is really beautiful!



And the 4+ Captain Redbeard Minifig version turned out amazingly well!



The surgeon from SirScottLego is a very nice edition to my crew! :-P



But not unlike his  beautiful admiral (sorry about bad quality of torso):



More, and better quality pics (had a bit of problems with the lightning) will come tomorrow.

My apologies about the double post, but I also made some more demos from the torsos in the library:

Captain Jack Sparrow by Tyger:


French Artillery(with cannon) by Mosana:


Crew cook by SSL:


Coming up next: French Red Lancers by woody 64, Mexican Artillery and British artillery by Mosana.

Could you be so kind to add these demos to the library Mr Bonaparte?
