Legomind3000 Posted January 22, 2023 This is incredible. I love pirates and I really love all the interior detail. Like how there's lots of minifigure activity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marooned Marin Posted January 22, 2023 Great amount of action packed in this build, lot of colourful details and it looks fantastic from all angles. I love it! Ok, now the tedious details please: Q1: How long did you make this? Q2: Count parts, any estimation? Q3: Is this going to end up on LEGO Ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feuer Zug Posted January 23, 2023 Impressive. Love all the detail work that went into this. Everything from the flying gull to the smaller cannons. Even the rocks have a weathered feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PxChris Posted January 23, 2023 This fort is great! The buildings certainly are nicely designed and look wonderful, but for me, it's the landscape and the whole scene that really ends up standing out! Wonderfully done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, now the tedious details please: Q1: How long did you make this? Q2: Count parts, any estimation? Q3: Is this going to end up on LEGO Ideas? 1 The original fortress was made in 2020 for lego ideas. 2 8000 I my best guess. The original fortress was 3000. And I use more plates than bricks.. 3 Nope to big for Ideas in this form. Max is 3000 parts 14 hours ago, Mister Phes said: Is this also on LEGO Ideas? Sadly no.

The smaller cannon was inspired by a post on instagram. Used some different parts and made canon more like a canon with the shape. 3 hours ago, PxChris said: This fort is great!

I have it the same way. It's an old build so and it needed the landscape and life with minifigs to get all the way. And now.. End of an era. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
