Wouwie Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Vig. 60a Pic is link ''Everyone is welcome at the Sand Bar. Just bring gold to pay for your rum.'' I think ''Big Daddy'' Nelson did a great job using the new island pieces. But the roof The Tiki Torches looks also very great. Quote
Zorro Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Lovely, looks great, the Sand Bar is one bar I'd like to be at. Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I like this a lot, I see nice usage of the baseplates, the roof is absolutely awesome. I've never seen this technique before somewhere! There are lots of details in the bar himself, I recognize things from the bar in our own town! A very nice creation! Quote
SlyOwl Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 For some reason it reminds me of the Offshore Krusty Burger in the Simpsons I like the tiki torches a lot - simple and effective - and they really contribute to the overall atmosphere. It's a great MOC that captures the Caribbean essence very nicely. I love how the guy in the crow's nest is looking at it through the telescope The island also looks like it retains some of the original Loot Island features (the jetty), so I wonder why Nelson didn't modify the raft a bit - that technic axle mast looks rather flimsy and weird, and could do with some beefing up... But the roof Yes, it's a nice thatch technique, although I wonder as to its realism - wouldn't it just rot or get blown away? (I know I'm a culprit of this too ) Quote
Asuka Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 A great and charming work indeed. One Jack Rose for me, please... or no, better two or three! Quote
