I didn't do it intentionally! But it is true, even if I think the mail travels by the small propeller airplane
-
I agree with you. I bet the conversion to euros will be 1:1...
-
Absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I'm wondering if I will ever be able of even think to start to build something so amazing! My congratulations for your job. Of course I encourage you to espand even more and see other beautiful pics! PS: I loved the chairs in the bar! :thumbup: :thumbup:

I have an IF (the new one) and a QAR
-
Byebye money! I'm gonna buy the Helm's deep but I also want the army (although I would like some more Rohimmir) and possibly gandalf arrives. I do really hope that in a second wave they will do some collector sets (as they do for star wars) of Minas Thirit (4000 pieces? :P)

It's impressive! I'm wondering how many IFs have been used, I guess 3 :)

MOC/LAYOUT: Mediterranean Islands with fortress
Skystorm87 replied to Skystorm87's topic in Pirate MOCs
Martello tower is also a good idea but I think something like the whitecap bay can really fit: it looks quite similar to the fortifications used in that age here in the mediterranean villages: -

MOC/LAYOUT: Mediterranean Islands with fortress
Skystorm87 replied to Skystorm87's topic in Pirate MOCs
Thanks for the replies . Regarding the minifigures, I do agree that the medieval soldiers don't look very good, but now they are there to fill a bit the environment. In the future I was planning to buy some small boats to populate the layout, some fishermen and a few soldiers. I don't know if it worth to add a lighthouse. I thing a good Idea may be create a small hill made (of course) of stones and put the lighthouse there, if I bay the whitecap bay set I also get two boats and two sirenes that are figures of the Greek mythology living somewhere in the sees of south Italy. -
I have bought the Imperial Flagship and at Xmas I've received also the QAR. I really think that the QAR can be a good rival for the IF. It has 4 cannons positions on each side (even if the ship itself comes with only 3 cannons and it is faster and versatile thanks to the back sail. I'll post some pics of my new pirates layout in a few days hoping that it will help in judging.

Take the (PF-engine 8866), on the old 9 volt rails

Thank you very much! Now it's clear, I'll try this solution when my 9v motors will die. cheers, Davide -

Skystorm87 replied to ust60's topic in LEGO Train Tech
This idea is great! I was wondering if you need always two motors or one is enough, sorry maybe it is a silly question but I'm not very good in electronic! Cheers! -
I'm definitely ruined Can't wait for the Helm's deep set :devil: :devil:
-
I definitely love your BP! It's an amazing ship! I'm into Pirates sets since very short time and I own you just two ships, but I wish I can build my own very soon!
-
I've seen the here at the Lego shop in Hamburg. I have to say that it looks much better than in the pictures and it has nice details. My personal feeling is that it is too small to represent the ship of the movie, it really looks more like a toy. So I bought the Queen Anne's revenge, 'cause I need a rival for the Imperial Flagship :-) I'll post some pics of my Pirate layout when it will be finished.
-
I have only the Imperial Flagship! But I'm planning to buy the Queen Anne's Revenge
-
I think this time LEGO deserves it. All the sets are really expensive for the amount of bricks included (compare with Harry Potter's for example). Queen Anne's revenge is the nicest in my opinion whereas all the other non-ship sets have a good design but are very essential. I Like White Cap Bay but it should have included at least a baseplate with some rocks and some water, so that the lighthouse would have been at an upper level with respect to the sea.

Hi, I've bought this set, and built yesterday, it took me about 5 or 6 hours. I have a lot of sets but I think this is really one of the best and most detailed ever. Defenitely it worth to buy it!
-
Absolutely amazing MOC! I like everything! It's very realistic! The garden is realistic and wonderful!
-
It's a very good review I have this set!! It is not built in my city but I have transformed it into a medieval castle: My castle I played a lot with that set and I probably got it for my 8th birthday. I remember my mum kept it hide but I discovered it few days before my birthday.
-
Hi! It was a pleasure discover this website and this forum full of AFOL! So I decided to contribute showing my little city, built combining a lot of sets I have. Here is the link to brickshelf Gallery: Legoland I'd like to hear comments to improve my layouts, Cheers
-
Hello! I'm Davide, and I'm very happy to share with you my passion for LEGO! Actually I'm in England, Reading but my lego are located in Sicily :-) Hope to contribute in some way! Davide

It's the historical part of the city. In Italy, almost every small city has is castle! Expecially in Tuscany and Marche. So that is just an attempt to reproduce it. The part near the station: bow, church, castle and egyptian sarcophagus is supposed to be the historical part of the city :-)
-
Thank you for your comments! What do you mean that colors of train station don't match? I personally like the white and gray combinations of colour! I have a lot of hairs to cover my minifigs but I really don't like them sometimes. There are a lot of hairless men around! Metroliner will be probably destroyed to make a designed-by-me train :)

Thank you very much! I'd like to add another table of the same size with a beach, docks and some ships. In that table I wanna create also a small hill with a road going up and temple ruins on the top. With a new table I will espand the airport making a real runway, some taxyway and real gates for aircrafts. I also have to redisign the bell tower of the church in a different way.
