Jacob Nion Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) I am not sure; is this the part where I beg for approvals? If so, please feel free to approve as long as you are no bloody cursed rat like me. _________________ Well be with you, my dear readers. May I introduce myself, the name be Captain Benjamin Morgan. Let me report you from my adventurous life, unfortunate incidents, perilous encounters and aye, many a stroke of good fortune. You may excuse the title of this introduction. Death sure will be the final chapter of my tale. But good luck it is not yet written. My father from Corrington, my mother from Oleon, life began under an unlucky star for me. Born on the edge of war, caught between two worlds while belonging to none of them. The love my parents found was a felony in the eyes of many, and my pure existence was a shame in their eyes. At least Corrington found me useful enough to serve in her majesty's navy. Soon I learned that the sea would not ask for a man's origin. High born or low, the tide washes out your soul until there is nothing left except the man you truly are. And when a new world was discovered I took my chance and found my confession. They may call me vermin, scum, a plague of the sea. I shall not deny. I am a Sea Rat, 'till I die. Edited April 7, 2016 by Jacob Nion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted April 7, 2016 Fantastic explosion effect! Flying cannon = awesome! I am not sure; is this the part where I beg for approvals?... The rules recently underwent a re-vamp and approvals are no longer necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon Posted April 8, 2016 Very nice posing and awesome explosion, JN - I must admit that your title puzzled me for a minute though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
halixon Posted April 8, 2016 This sounds like it's gonna be an awesome story!!! I really like that explosion effect, and nice job choosing the expressions on the soldiers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capn Frank Posted April 8, 2016 Top notch. Great posing. Do you have a completed ship getting shot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kurigan Posted April 8, 2016 Honest first reaction: "wo, that's cool!" Great job on capturing the action. The buckling deck is a nice touch. It's quite the engaging missive and your hero isn't even looking back at that cool explosion; that's how you know he's BA. with an intro like this, how can I not want to see more?

BrickOn Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) :thumbup: We approve anyway, the exploding cannon is soooo cool and truly great posing! A great hero in the making, the Corries missed a good one here :-) Edited April 8, 2016 by BrickOn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacob Nion Posted April 8, 2016 Fantastic explosion effect! Flying cannon = awesome! The rules recently underwent a re-vamp and approvals are no longer necessary. Ah thanks. I find that a lot easier. I approve anyway! Thank you sir! Very nice posing and awesome explosion, JN - I must admit that your title puzzled me for a minute though! Haha, I guess it was Disney's tangled where I got this "my story ends with my death" thing got from. All those weird things in my head. This sounds like it's gonna be an awesome story!!! I really like that explosion effect, and nice job choosing the exp<b></b>ressions on the soldiers! Thank you very much! Top notch. Great posing. Do you have a completed ship getting shot? Aye sir, I have a ship ready, but it's not this one. Tis just a background build. But I hope to present you my first vessel, the Warbringer (2A) today. Honest first reaction: "wo, that's cool!" Great job on capturing the action. The buckling deck is a nice touch. It's quite the engaging missive and your hero isn't even looking back at that cool explosion; that's how you know he's BA. with an intro like this, how can I not want to see more? Haha, thanks! Didn't thought about it, but you're right, not giving a damn about explosions behind you totally makes the action hero. :thumbup: We approve anyway, the exploding cannon is soooo cool and truly great posing! A great hero in the making, the Corries missed a good one here :-) Thanks! Also can't wait to set sail to adventures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MiloNelsiano Posted April 8, 2016 Very nice build. Your action posing, as always, looks fantastic. Looking forward to more from captain Morgan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdeathgr Posted April 8, 2016 A great moc to begin with! Show us more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bregir Posted April 8, 2016 Great action shot, Jacob! As always, you really have a knack for making the bricks come alive. Interesting story too! About approval - I can't say if you need them, but for gameplay purposes, they are now a moot point! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elostirion Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) What an excellent presentation of that scene, wonderful! The scene and the minifigs just seem so... realistic. Great, just great. Edited April 8, 2016 by Elostirion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted April 8, 2016 Excellent entrance. Approvals were never required for free build #1 and #2 of the month. Only for #3+ but that's no longer required with the new rules. Nothing to say you can't still ask for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
