Cincinnati Posted November 22, 2021 Thanks everyone again for their appreciation! I am working on the set to replace some small pieces with cheaper ones: as soon as I finish I will start with the instructions, but I think it will not be a quick process Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PxChris Posted November 30, 2021 This is a really wonderful model! Would be a beauty to see actually built in the brick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted December 1, 2021 Many thanks, I'm almost done compiling the instructions and then I'll buy the pieces needed to build it. If the moc will show solid and without structural problems, then I will post the instructions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff of Clubs Posted December 13, 2021 That is really well thought out! I love it! That furniture is excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted December 13, 2021 Many thanks to you too, I have ordered all the necessary parts and I hope to start the build after the Christmas holidays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted February 27, 2022 Hi, the build is finished and is very solid (this was the point that interested me most). I took some pics but, above all, a video (in italian language, sorry) in which I show the rest of the construction well (in particular the cave and all the playable elements inside) and how it can be open in all its sections. Thank you for the support Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marooned Marin Posted February 27, 2022 There is nothing like the feeling when you transform your digital creation into solid and everything turns out to be OK Well done, great build honestly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rackham Posted February 27, 2022 Fantastico!!!!!!! After you've probably played with it in a bit , are you still planning to create instructions? Awesome Job!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted February 28, 2022 Many thanks! I made the build following the instructions I had already done, so now I can say that are ready and tested. However, while I was building the model, I preferred to change some pieces with others to give more solidity to the structure. So now I have to update the instructions with these very small changes (and also the total parts inventory). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While 'sharing is caring' and 'he who shares wins' you should definitely consider putting the final instructions on Rebrickable for few €uros. I would say it could be easily in the top 20% of best Pirate-themed builds which are offered there at the moment of writing. And the video (even in Italian) is great addition. You can always write and add English subtitles inside the video, but even when I watched it on mute I could see everything what you were trying to say or show. Great effort Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you paint the flame in 'special' color to achieve this effect in render? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted March 7, 2022 Hi, yes it's a rendering picture. if you try to search in the category of colors in Studio, you will find the one called "luminous" and "luminous soft": if you apply one of them to a brick, it will become illuminated in the rendering picture.

Bricky Steamboat Posted March 8, 2022 What a great build! I'll definitely be looking for the instructions when they're released. Would happily part with a few doubloons to credit the designer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoppa Posted March 17, 2022 That is truly awesome. The detail is so gorgeous and believable. I scanned the thread to see if it was asked, but didn't see the question: how many hours of designing did this take you @cincinatti ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cincinnati Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Thank you so much Hoppa for your opinion. I don't remember exactly how long it took to complete the digital build: more or less a month working a couple of hours a day Edited March 18, 2022 by Cincinnati Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Rackham Posted March 21, 2022 Incredible and congrats ! Even the tenth time you watch it doesn't get boring. Collecting for another project right now but this will definitely be the next one. Maybe other pirate themed sets will follow from you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
