Looks good so far Bonaparte! Can't wait to see how it turns out! Might I recommend adding an armoury, packed with muskets and gun powder? Might be a nice touch, but it's your MOC!

Quite a good idea to build something different then ships 
I really like how similar the overall appearance is to the original set; very classic! The rock looks sound too. I'm curious to see this progress.

This looks amazing! Are you predicting the redcoats to win the ToR? 
Me being picky, I still think you could add may items to the rock to make them less ugly. But other than that, I wish I could build something as amazing as this. Great job!

This is getting better and better! 
yes some more rock work would be nice, along with more dock, in my opinion.
Shame it's a redcoat fortress, but awesome job!

Nicely done!
Filling it with redcoats isn't exactly accurate to the original set I think .
I actually like the use of burps/lurps, nowadays people shoot me when I use those or raised baseplates, something about being lazy and not up to standards

That looks great, I'm looking forward to see it in the flesh next week. 
Why do you need TLC to make sets for you, all you really need is parts...be creative!

Very beautiful work!
The fort turned out accurate and functional. Photos are pleasant for a look.
P.S. More photo is necessary!

Very impressive fortress,with great attention to detail. 
I look forward to you expanding the fort more underground.
On a side note I would change that brown flag pole as it looks like a missile with a flag stuck on top.

I'm absolutely loving it! There is nothing better than the old classic style of Lego Pirates. Are you going to further develop / enlarge your island?

Do you have a more recent update including the improved rocks? I am very fond how your MOC is looking so similar in its appearance to the original set; you've captured that very well!
