    Knoetel in Minifigs

    these are good! but is it possible to make the swords and hats look a little less bumpy? it looks odd with everything else so smooth.

    Classic LEGO Pirates commercial...

    I remember seeing one of these commercials. i hated the clothes they wore though, they look nothing like what pirates might have wore.

    [MOC] USS Essex

    This is pretty good! Nice job on the figurehead! it looks a bit like the Black Pearl's figurehead

    2012 Pirates?

    i would really like to see the Interceptor or the Dauntless but of course, the pirates are the "good guys" so we wont be seeing those until later. another set that would be cool would be Port Royal or Fort Charles

    Best and Worst ideas for PoTC sets

    "everyone's thinking it and I'm just saying it..." The kraken attack, the H.M.S Dauntless/interceptor, and possibly Fort Charles

    General Pirates of the Caribbean Theme Discussion Thread

    I don't really care what other imperials they come out with for the new POTC line, as long as they keep on making redcoats

    The New Sword Sling Piece...

    It's made of the same type of plastic they use to make the Indiana jones bag

    Help With Ships

    I Will be building a ship soon, but I've been wondering how i can make the ships curves without jumper bricks. Also i was wondering if i should combine the IFS ship baseplates with Brickbeards Bounty baseplates and build a frigate. one last thing, should i take apart my IFS, and what should i use for rigging?

    Favourite Imperial Faction!

    Redcoats are just the best! think about it... redcoats are british right? ya they are so when napoleon threatened to invade britain, the brits fought back -against the french AND the spanish- and won the napoleonic wars! yeah

    Meeting of two frigates: Achille and Vesta

    nice to know someone else uses paint too! you should try a program called "GIMP" it is very good for creating effects like that, and its FREE! you can also try out another free site called Squirlz water reflections (watch a tutorial on youtube by cannedgravy)

    Custom Bayonet and Treasure Chest

    you don't even need a hook. A minifig hand will do the same thing. It tilts the sword up a little bit but it works

    Destroyed outpost

    I see a couple spiders, a rat, some skelletons, and AN ORANGE! no wonder the pirates left! its a NAVAL orange

    Which is more seaworthy- Skull Eyes Schooner or Imperial Flagship

    I chose the Imperial Flagship 1. because it is a warship 2. ALOT of good peices came in the set (brown mast peices) 3. it has a decent crew I noticed the skulls eye schooner had a rowboat on the back. Its a bit more practical for life aboard the ship, but not very roomy for battles.

    Port Virginia

    Very good! I like how you made the lamps. Usually people just use the 1X1 round peices but very creative. Love the blood effects too
