Oh I agree entirely. The super structure of the POBB ship is definitely the perfect basis for ship MOCs, to which modifications can be made to it your own ship. I’ve got the inclination to design my own iteration of the  Carribean Clipper, or “Sea Hawk” as it was known with the Australian release, based on the POBB hull superstructure.

I would LOVE to see this!

 I think that would translate well to the style!

Few more updates, cabin complete, it’s a bit busy and I do want to put some tiles / plates down as a rug.

Looking good mate. Seeing this makes me want to get back on Mecabricks and noodle around with my Clipper MOC as soon as I can.

Post some pics of it!

 I’d love to see. Always good to hear from a fellow Aussie here too.  👍

Sure, I’ll start a thread in this section of the forum posting what I’ve done. It’ll be the first time I show off any of my work on the forum, or anywhere else for that matte, not that I’ve really done much of my own stuff yet, mainly having put together official sets and other people’s MOCs from Rebrickable. To start with it’ll only be digital as I can’t afford to buy too many bricks I don’t know that I’ll definitely end up using. I have collected some random bricks from the PAB wall plus the Xtras packs, VIP add on packs and a couple of those packs that LEGO sell directed at kids with random coloured bricks like the Neon and Pastel Classic brick sets, which will provide me with parts for freestyle MOCs. However, something as large as a ship I am going to have to build digitally first. You’re a fellow Aussie, which state are you from? I live in Perth.

Perth also.

 Get on board with bricklink, many stores will supply you with parts at a fraction of the price of PAB.

Yeah I have made quite a few purchases from Bricklink so far, the most recent sizeable order being to complete a MOC by the Rebrickable designer, HaulingBricks, who creates instructions for LEGO minifig scale trucks for LEGO City. I’m currently working on building a LEGO city as well as LEGOPirates and Castle stuff, but I am also tempted to build some Ninjago City sets and MOCs (despite not liking the main Ninjago line, I love to Ninjago City stuff and think it’s really cool) and also Neo-Classic Space. Having said that I may be spreading myself too thin so very well may not end up pulling the pin and starting Ninjag City and Space. My goal is to construct a largish table of about five 32 x 32 baseplates by seven or eight 32 x 32 baseplates and alternate what I have on display throughout the year, though I’ve only really returned to LEGO after my dark ages a couple of years ago. I also collect and paint Warhammer 40k and Age of Sigmar models, although I don’t really get to play either game very often.

The captain's cabin is coming together nicely! Does a chair or stool fit in there?

I havnt even considered that but something small might work!

 Most ships have had a cool custom built chair so I’ll give it a go!
