[MOC] Jose's Inn at Skull Rock (31109 B-model enclosed tavern building MOD) now finished in real life!

Recommended Posts

Ahoy there, and welcome to Jose's Inn, located on the scenic Skull Rock boardwalk just a stone throws away from the pirate port itself! This Inn has all amenities of (both ship-or-land-based) home, such as five cozy beds and a large wine cellar stocked with all best ale's, beers, wines and spirits. The food served is guaranteed by our cook Dan "Dysentery" McGee to be the best served in all the world's navies, with no-maggots* crackers a staple of the pre-dinner meal!

We are also proud to feature twice-a-week amusements by "Davy Jones and the Cursed Immortals" as our house band on Monday and Friday nights. Come around for such hearty songs such as "Point of Know Return", "Wooden Ships", "Octopus's Garden", with "Hotel in Tortuga" as their usual closer.

So come on down to Jose's Inn, where our famous waitstaff (Manfred the waiter on left, Rosemary the barkeep on right) will treat you like old friends!

(*Crackers may or may not contain maggots. Resulting disease may vary; Check with your local barber for more details on whether the crackers may be safe for you!)

Davy Jones and the Undead Immortals Band are, from left to right:
- Cpt. Vanderdecken, on drums (cursed God on a trip round the horn of Africa, so God cursed him)
- Corporal Punishment, on guitar (from a Spanish expedition to El Dorado)
- Major Paine, on bass guitar (officer from the English Civil War)
- Davy Jones, on vocals (made a deal with goddess Calypso to ferry souls to underworld)

NOTE: Their instruments are made from ectoplasm and not visible to living beings, thus they are not visible here.

MODEL NOTES:

This tavern idea came to me in early February, and was built in late May, and is based off set 31109's B-model with the printed sign from set Pirates of Barracuda Bay (from the Ideas set 21332 number . I thought I should build accommodations for my pirate crews upon arriving at Skull Rock, and it will hook into the boardwalk via clips on both sides of the model's dock easily. The song list is the one I thought long and hard about... thinking of REAL songs with pirate or ship themes, however slight, was hard! However, the easiest one to add was because of @Professor Thaum and his awesome pirate-y rendition of Hotel California, as seen in the post linked to above in the actual song list and again here, because I love it so much.

Comments, questions, suggestions, and complaints welcome!

This will definitely make it easier for rum suppliers to leave their deliveries! :pir-huzzah1:
