Kozikyo86 Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) Hi everyone! I would like to show you two simple constructions that I have built. The idea was to make something like shop sets, and to refer to the classics, such a contemporary version. Plus a style to match Barracuda Bay. A hut inspired by a set from 1992, Smuggler's Shany 6258, Raft to Castaway's Raft 6257 from 1989. The larger project is 188 parts, the smaller 92. I will share both MOCs with a parts list, the tutorial will be available on my YouTube channel - edge of bricks. I'm also thinking about some more modifications, maybe something from Islanders? 😄😄 Any ideas? What do you think about this projects?

zoth33 Posted December 13, 2020 Nice build. The shanty looks good, I like that is spans across the water to the small outcropping of rocks. The use of the flag pieces for the sail on the raft makes it look tattered. Nice looking figs too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted December 14, 2020 Nice work, I could see these being official sets. You have managed to capture the style of the last pirate line and Barracuda Bay with a homage to the original sets. Islanders would be a logical next step! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteamSewnEmpire Posted December 16, 2020 Man, that feels like something you could pick off a store shelf today. Pity it isn't so :(. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Svendp Posted December 16, 2020 Very nice. I like you've combined older sets, with the feeling of the new barracuda bay. If only would see the benefits :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thedarkmaster2 Posted December 16, 2020 Excellent recreation, where did the anemone piece come from and if I may ask your deep reasoning for including it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
