JeffBuilds Posted October 7, 2018 Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) A new Moc I created receently, a Pirate Island Hideout inspired by an old Fisher Price Great Adventures! Playset. The Thumbnails seem to be inverted on Brickshelf.com for some reason. Full view to see it right side up. But here's the overall shot of the MOC A side-View of the Moc, featuring the prison Cell and the Smuggler's Cay. A back view of the Moc. The Cannon can be removed from the Balcony Comes with 4 Minifigures. Edited October 9, 2018 by Jevil Proper Thumbs, NOT from Australia. ;) Quote

Eggyslav Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 When Pirates establish a base in Australia... XD Quote

Cant hang upside down much longer..... Im not a bat! Yeah, somewhere between uploading the Images and posting them on Brickshelf, the Linked Thumbs appear to be inverted. I may have had to edit the images before posting them last time, this has happened before for me, not sure what I did to fix it. EDIT: For anyone else who somehow has the problem of Inverted Thumbnails on Brickshelf, if you upload Directly from your Digital Camera (or Smart Phone,) In my experience, Before posting them to Brickshelf, open them in any Editing Program (I used Paint, Just Right-Clicked and selected "Edit") and "Save" your picture, then Exit. This fixes your thumbs so that they're not inverted, because a Wizard did it. Edited October 9, 2018 by Jevil Quote
ProvenceTristram Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 In all seriousness, I like this. It's very set-like. Quote
Edward Jones Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 It's super cool, i like it. The skull-island is a timeless classic. The colors give a modern and natural rendering. The cell with the window facing the front is my favorite part. Quote
Roadmonkeytj Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 I love the eye patch on the skull lol Quote

Ultimately, I accomplished this with a tactical, solid, and legal use of parts. 2X4 wall bracket, 1X2 Clip Beam, 2X3 Clip. On 10/9/2018 at 4:43 AM, Edward Jones said: It's super cool, i like it.

Yeah, my favorite part has to be the Jail Cell too! Big enough to fit one Minifigure, uncomfortably, lol. That, or the top of the Skull, with the Verdant Green Grass-Plates to make it more organic and Island-Like, and less like a solid piece of rock. Oh, another detail I LOVE about this thing is the whole lower-half of the skull! All Brick-Built! Edited October 10, 2018 by Jevil Quote
JeffBuilds Posted January 20, 2019 Author Posted January 20, 2019 I've updated the model since the previous thread, and posted a Video about it on Youtube, if anybody here is interested. Quote
Robin_IV Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 What a great use of the skull part. It's used too less for me in MOCs :) Quote
