lt.Gonville brickhead Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 I am just wondering as I did not see it mentioned earlier but how big/How many baseplates it will use. Quote
______ Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Jesus, I can say that I have never seen the cartoon, but cities of gold is a good indication of what you are doing I can't believe how much gold you bought! How much did you have to pay for that? Looks extremely promising at the moment as well, if i was a pirate I would be very happy to visit this mysterious city of gold. Quote

Dr. Steve Posted March 14, 2011 Author Posted March 14, 2011 Freak me sideways, that's a lot of pearl gold... I'll be keenly watching progress. I sadly assume that there won't be a golden condor however. I wish I could do the Condor There you could put jumpers between those on the top row and place another row on top of it to secure it. Hope you get what I mean. Good luck anyway! I am not sure I get it, could you explain a little more? Thanks. I am just wondering as I did not see it mentioned earlier but how big/How many baseplates it will use. 48 by 48 Baseplate I can't believe how much gold you bought! How much did you have to pay for that? Looks extremely promising at the moment as well, if i was a pirate I would be very happy to visit this mysterious city of gold. Thanks! so far I would say I have spent around $200 US. There is a lot of Gold Jumpers and other parts that are sitting in bags still. I spent an average of $.04 for each jumper. I am not including the baseplate or the black and grey brick I am using for support since I had it already. I would like to know how you get this information sir! Simple, go to Bricklink 1x2 jumpers for sale Actually you can get it cheaper then you'd thhink. You are correct Sir! Quote
RohanBeckett Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I spy with my little eye.... your recent purchases! ;) http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=3794&colorID=115 and someone also bought 1200 of them in March already (was that you?) And this is insane: http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?sID=172834&itemID=22534427 how on earth does any one store accumulate 36,000 of them? Considering the most times it appeared in a set is the Pirate Code Game (34) Oh.. and good work on the MOC... bonus points if you make that big golden flying bird! :) that was my favourite part of the show!

RB That would be me, I did not realize you could see all that on bricklink. That's cool. I was surprised by the 36,000. I had bought that store out of them last month (2,700) So that means he had at least 38,700 at some point. I will see what I can do on the Bird, not too hopeful. Quote
Dr. Steve Posted March 17, 2011 Author Posted March 17, 2011 I have a few more pics I am playing around with different ways to do the stairs as you can see above. I ran out of the gold parts to complete the roof on the smaller building (bricklink here I come). As far as using the small gold statues, I will see where they fit best as I come closer to completing the MOC. For know I have just put them here and there. Here is a pic from the back I will add more pics as I get time to build some more Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Most impressive! I'm looking forward to the finished product. Quote
Aalak Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) It's quite impressive what you created with the limited amount bricks and platetypse in pearl gold! I was a bit sceptical first, but now I can't wait till you finished bricklink-shopping and bring us the next update. :thumbup: I personally like the steps made of the fense-parts more than the ordinary jumperplates-steps.

lt.Gonville brickhead Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 This is looking great,still can't wait till itt's finished. Quote
Dan the Brickman Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 oh, wow... How much did all this cost??? Quote
BrickPerfection Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 That's some really nice progress you're making here! I'll keep an eye on it until it's finished since it definately is a project that is unlike anything else usually done on these forums! Quote
Dr. Steve Posted April 11, 2011 Author Posted April 11, 2011 Just got a brinklink order (took almost a month to get it ) I will update with some new pics in a few days. Quote
