  1. Mrts, I won't ever be troubled by looking at those great mocs!!!!!! I love that stained glass window! This "Room Interior" is my favorite. There are A LOT of great details all over the place. Great job on all of those MOCs. BTW What's CCC4? I've never heard of that before.
  2. *achoo* X-D Why do you need to clean off your ship? It doesn't look dirty to me. X-D I'll be looking forward to those pics.
  3. Rubber Cement would probably work too. (anybody knows if it harms bricks?) i've used it on my UCS ISD Millenium Falcon and the bricks were just fine when i took it apart.
  4. Wow that ship turned out real nice. Look forward to seeing the sails completed. *y* hey where are the anchor/s? It's going to be really hard to out run that well armed vessel. (or catch her if she's out gunned) 007, some of the smaller lateen rigged vessels were also "ore equiped" according to the World of Jack Aubry book.
  5. i think this new theme looks pretty good *sweet* . i like how they've returned the classic style of swords on the "human" side. They're much better looking than the jellybean swords! i like the skeleton swords too! and the new skeletons. now they can hold weapons too. i might actually have to buy a castle set for the first time in almost five years. :-)
  6. i agree, a MOC that nice is bound to have plenty of plunder. I like the plated roof. looks very nice.
  7. I agree with Mr. Tiber. It looks like a very ornate Dutch Galleon. I usually think of Spanish vessels having a larger forecastle when their aftcastle is that big. One brick at a time Evil Willy. (and lots of free time and bricks :-D )
  8. Just wanted to show a few pics of the interior that I
  9. i guess i can't be a runner up for the best pirate avatar anymore :-( now that i've changed my avatar again. but at least i signed my name in lego X-D .
  10. Try right here at BL. If you know what the sets item # the piece is missing from go to www.peeron.com and type in the item # in the search box and it'll lead you here and at the bottom of the page is the list of parts and part #'s. Find the part (click on the PIC link to be sure it's the right piece). And type that part # in the BL search engine and change the "item types" to parts. Then all you've gotta do is buy it. Edit: BTW here is a list of acronyms used on most lego forums in case you didn't know them. Edit, Edit: You're very welcome Nick. (M-Tron was by far my favorite space lego team)
  11. You know how us Americans are. We take great things from other countries and say their our own. So with that in mind, Americans are the best builders of Lego :-P . (j/k i don't really care, i like to see great mocs from anybody) LOL! :-D
  12. das katolog ist auf im deutch, ich werstein es niecht ich spreche deutch niecht (stupid duplo pirates! arrrrr) there was only the new vladek black castle and the fire station |-/ (that i saw anywayz) Edit: I wonder if that's where all the good sets are?!?
  13. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D *sing* :-$ ... ... :-D :-D :-D *sing* :'-) that was funny!
  14. If you want to buy brand new bricks, some of them are availible on Lego Factory 1.6. Just down load it from this website and put whatever bricks you want on the screen and then order them online. You can also build what you want too. There aren't nearly as many bricks availible as on BL (bricklink) though.
  15. Here are some ancient pirates |-/ It comes with some kool looking torsos though. i've also ordered a couple of moc cannons from Lego Factory 1.6 i ordered all the parts needed and just added the black barrel i already had and had myself a new cannon X-D . gonna make another order soon using this piece i found on Lego Factory and try to make a carronade of some sort Edit: There i think i made one that looks pretty neat it's $1.35 in US Item #lfh002 don't know if that works correctly or not Comes with black "wheels" too Edit Edit: i'm trying to get it to work right now, try typing in that item number to see if it works (edit: it doesn't work) Edit, Edit, Edit: Admiral I'm waiting for it to be approved by lego.com right now
  16. I was playing AOE3 and thought it'd be cool if some of these units were made out of legos. So I decided to make some and share them with yous guys. Feel free to post your AOE3 units on here. Also feel free to give compliments or gripes of my versions, or make better versions of the units and post them on here and compare. My own Bley Mortor. Actually I have two of them. The other one is pictured right below this one. Pretty much only used components from my bley Millenium Falcon set. In the game there isn't a horse drawn ammo cart. So I made one. I really neato thing i found out about putting bricks together. The 2x3 angeled plate fits very nicely onto those two technic half-pins. Try it out yourselves :'-) ! I was real excited when i accidently did this. (although i don't know how often it'll be handy :-| ) 3 German Black Riders (err mostly black X-D ). 4 French Cuirassiers. I've seen one's online (i think they're bonapart's) that have silver armor and helmets. They look a lot better with the silver armor and helmets. But i don't know where he got the silver helmets from. And i didn't want to paint the bricks i had. A link to my Brickshelf page. Another link to see the AOE3 units.
  17. ISD here the piece count is fabulous, over 1400 pieces and only $100 about in the US. A black R2 unit (A BLACK R2 UNIT!!), 2 storm troopers (never can have enough storm troopers), 2 emperor's guards, and Grand Mof Tarkin I feel are the most noteable figs it comes with. (i.e. lots of figs) The sail barge does come with another grogorean and Lando (whom i really like). Otherwise they're all the same figs as jabba's palace sets. Since i got the UCS ISD, after i get this ISD i could turn it into a Victory Class Star destoyer to scale with the USC ISD.
  18. i've seen a few ppl mention that islanders are cannibles on EB and i've easily accepted it :skel1: . besides, aren't they dressed a lot like the cannibles in POTC2? ;-)
  19. Compared to the thousands my wife's friend's husbands regularly spend on their hobbies, legos are cheap. es. Even if lego makes a new system pirates ( *wub* *wub* *wub* *wub* ), i know i won't be spending more than a thousand dollars a year on legos. I get along with these guys just fine, I just can't see spening all that money on hobbies unless you can afford it and one of them definetely can't. I know it is possible to spend thousands on lego, i just chose not to. I know i might get sent to the gallows for this X-D but there are other things to do and see rather than spend all your extra money into legos
  20. it looks like it could flip bow over stern with an aft castle like that! Might need some wheely bars on it to keep it stable.
  21. Maybe they're cannibles like the islanders? :-D Just kidding. Welcome to the forum Island Boy! Look forward to reading your posts and threads. Hey Mister Phes or somebody, could you post a link in this thread about all the acronyms used in this forum? I don't know where that is.
  22. i look forward to see the newer colors on this ship. After my frigate's done i hope to build a bomb ketch on a brown hull with mostly rown(reddish-brown :-P ) bricks maybe just put the tiles on the lighter colors. i'm hoping my amazon book order gets here Wed. or Thurs., bought a few of those books mentioned in this thread for my brother. BTW. I like your new signiture, it looks real good
  23. i just call the new colors bley, dark bley and rown. i feel no need to call the new colors fancy names when i don't like them. I may not be a SNOT builder, but they do have some uses... ...hey wait a second, don't you have a concept ship with SNOT sides? I'm confused. :S Edit: Maybe i'll just make a ship with nothing but SNOT to show you how kool they can be... ...Probably not though.
