[MOC] Sea Horse or Sea Battle

[jetboy]

This is not pirates per se, but it's about sail ships so i thought it fits here best.

If mods think it should be moved to other section of the site, please do so.

But we can pretend one of the ships is actually pirate ship ;)

General look:

It all started on Pyrkon convention Poznań/Poland in 2014. We got some free bricks and among them there were horse hats (sorry, don't know the proper English word) for old horses that were replaced with new design. Someone said the piece is really useless for anything than putting in on a horse. Someone else joined in and said that the piece is as useless as speedor'z bodies from Chima. O'rly? I wouldn't be myself if i didn't accept the challenge and prove them both wrong. So the Sea Horse steam boat was born:

Once i had it i had to build some other sailboats. Then my LUG was in need of sea themed dioramas for our exhibition that is now taking place in Swarzewo/Poland, so i built a scene for it:

One of the elements i'm most proud of is the Lightouse::

And the windmills:

But the main feature of the scene are ships:

And some more detailed look at the ships:

Must say that I really like the scen and I love the steamboat.

Nice use of parts and microbuild.

This probably fits the Special Theme better.

[Captain Braunsfeld]

What a nice miniature scene you have created!

Water is well done, lighthouse is fine too.

Fine steampunk element in there too.

This probably fits the Special Theme better.

Not sure.

Steampunk vessel could be seen as SciFi - but the others quality as "strange pirate ships", don't they?

[LittleJohn]

Great work! I really like those windmills

[blackdeathgr]

Really nice! Pirate and Steampunk themes all mixed! My favorites along with castles :P

[jetboy]

I'm glad you like it guys!

[Spader]

Very cool sea battle!

For a microscale this is built very well even if it isn't specific Pirates material. The paddle steamer is just brilliant! The other ships are nicely done as well and it all adds up to a busy little scene. Good job on the lighthouse and windmills too.
