Yawgmoth Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) [pid][/pid] 242D Hello there! happy holidays :) It's been a little while since I posted something, so here I am, with a new MOC I rarely build anything other than ships,in fact it is the first non-ship construction I make, so we can say I had a very nice (and busy) week working on this, but it was worth every second :) I based my desing on the original 6273 Rock Island Refuge, or at least that was the idea at the beggining hehe, then I felt inspired to add more and more stuff, and finally this came out, I name it the Rock Island Fortress, enjoy :) Feedback is always welcome Edited January 5, 2014 by Capt.

jodawill Posted December 31, 2013 This is terrific! It reminds me so much of the 1990s Pirates sets. I remember they did several shipwreck sets and they all looked dreadful (one of them I never even realized was supposed to be a shipwreck until I read that in a review; I always wondered why it had a sail). But you really did a great job making it look like an actual broken ship. Superb! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2maxwell Posted December 31, 2013 Love this! It has a really classic lego feel. The only thing is that the fortress looks to put together for what I imagine as a pirate hideout. But that's just me. Really like the shipwreck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebeus I Posted December 31, 2013 Good job on adding 'rock' to Rock Island Refuge, the original set lacked that I think, nice shipwreck as well, reminds me of that rare set Pirates Perilous Pitfall . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yawgmoth Posted January 1, 2014 Hehe, yes I wanted to recreate something with classic feeling, and seeing that various sets have a shipwreck, I thought it could be nice to do one too! (not to mention it was a lot of fun) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mystus Posted January 4, 2014 I love this. Really a nice build. And the shipwreck is a classic addition! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tancred_de_Beauville Posted January 4, 2014 Great MOC - when I look on it I don't know why Pirates series aren't in any catalogue . Wish that one day they will re-edit old stuff from times when Blue Coats fought with pirates (dreamer). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManInATopHat Posted January 4, 2014 Detail, detail everywhere! Great MOC! We don't see enough pirate fortresses, even though there were many throughout the Caribbean, on islands such as Tortuga. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
