Pirate Armada

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone has every single Pirate ship and there own customs and they can make a armada?

Since I wanted to see If its big and good enough to buy all the Lego Pirate ships.

Just buy all the LEGO Pirate ships anyway...

But how can you buy some just like that

Because I was looking at buying some Western sets

Which is better?

There's a thread about whether Western is better than Pirates. But since I'm the administrator of a Pirate LEGO Forum I'm going to say Pirates!!!

I suggest you buy Western sets.

More pirates sets will be available for me to buy X-D

I suggest that also. I think Western sets are difficult to find than the Pirate sets. But the two themes are as nice.

*sweet*

Oh, that was all... I'm sure I once viewed a BS folder with at least 8 Armada Flagships. Can't seem to find it right now..

Indeed, the fleet in the lower picture belongs to EB member Simon Willems, it's impressive!

Fleets on!!

I have all the ships from the pirate theme except one (the armada flagship).

That ship is on top of my to-buy list.

But I don't have a picture and some ships are not constructed at this moment.

Do we have to say BS instead of Brickshelf... can't help thinking of it as something else. :-P

You have a dirty mind :-D

I used to make a lot of ships for this theme, started not long ago on a new one. Unfortunatly i don't have all ships yet, but I use the hull of the newer Vikings theme ship aswell. Same hull as the big pirate ship hulls, but in a slightly different color. But yeah, try to get as many ships as you can, you can add other sets to finish your ship perfectly. Making sails can help out aswell (try cloth of a white t-shirt and soak it in coffee and let that dry, that makes your sails a little more stiff and looks used!). Normally I use not more then 4 mid-hull sections for my ships, this allows you to have upto 4 masts and more cannons. Might wanna try out to use small parts of official and fan made ships for your ship in the start.

That's what I was about to ask! You take great initiative Mr Captain Green Hair *y* X-D

Pictures would be great if there should be any available.
