Rhys Flaidd DeTaillefer Despite the rainy weather, we managed to make good progress on Dead Man's Rock. It's a tiny rock protrusion from the sea near the mouth of Bastion's Harbour. Crab at Dead Man's Rock on Flickr We found the ruin of an old building, and through several weeks of diligent effort, Bastion now has a functioning Lighthouse. Bastion Lighthouse at Dead Man's Rock on Flickr The fires can be seen for miles, and help guide Sea Rats back to their home port....

Wooqui, the lighthouse keeper on Flickr Angus MacInnis has been lending a hand stocking logs for the firepit.... Angus MacInnis helps out on Flickr It's not much of an architectural wonder....but should serve it's purpose nicely....

CelesAurivern Posted February 28, 2016 Tis excellent! We all need a lighthouse somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted February 28, 2016 That is a good one - and something different from our usual builds. I see that you make efficient use of the latest bricks! I approve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted February 28, 2016 Great. No other words. Of course I approve (such a silly question ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaiju Posted February 28, 2016 I knew those shield emblems would start cropping up somewhere. And that's a very nicely done lighthouse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickOn Posted February 28, 2016 I approve, there can't be too many lego lighthouses keeping the ships safe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdeathgr Posted February 28, 2016 I approve! I like its out of ordinary architecture as it feels like a quickly scrambled building, totally the style of Sea rats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwatchi Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) I am a SR, so no official approval. Consider this my unofficial approval. I like the aesthetic you have here Vedauwoo. Edited February 28, 2016 by Kwatchi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Genaro Posted February 28, 2016 Not sure it's a good idea to have an open flame on a primarily wooden structure ! The build is quite nice. You did a good job making it appear to be a ruined structure that has simply been added onto. Making it all the better are all the details, it adds a lot to the aesthetics of this build. I approve .

Just one question....A "Lighthouse" can't really be licensed as anything, can it? Does it qualify for the "small fort" build by chance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stig Posted February 29, 2016 Nice piratey mood. Looks bigger than it is with good play access. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bregir Posted February 29, 2016 Cool lighthouse - I too like the idea of it being built on top of a ruin! I like the landscaping and the different platforms, as well as the guy bringing firewood. I would suggest making it more clear, that the old part is a ruin, perhaps some wallstumps or something protruding from the sides or top. As for licensing, I would say that this is a commercial service, and would therefore license it as a commerce building. I am not sure if it is large enough for a medium license, but it definitely has the size for a small with plenty to spare. I approve! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Dee Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Very good lighthouse. It looks just about perfect for that time period and the heavy use of brown/wood looks great. I like the tower design and the winding staircase. Overall it's a very pleasing arrangement. Approved! Edited March 27, 2016 by Captain Dee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
