The Empire of Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion
Kolonialbeamter replied to Sebeus I's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
At least both our systems clearly stand for one thing - Oleon is all about class, Eslandola is all about money... but Corrington is halfway Sea-Rats - a bit libertarian, but please, not too much, we get scared, so let's better still have a ruling queen. Make up your mind! *laughs in totalitarianism* ... wait, what? -
The Empire of Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion
Kolonialbeamter replied to Sebeus I's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Not a word of denial - come on, you could at least try to hide the true political intentions of your financial syndicate Instead, distraction: Oh no, this would only interrupt you counting DBs... plus, time is even more money... not sure I'm ready to take the blame for you loosing all those DB -
The Empire of Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion
Kolonialbeamter replied to Sebeus I's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
The council is nothing more than a vehicle for the TCs to tighten their grip around the neck of the Eslandian people. The fact that so many of you actually believe the 'republican' propaganda just proves how delightedly all greenies are kissing TC butts by now. For doubloons - Bravo! His utter incompetence and ridiculous politics aside, at least your green king had the courage to stand up to them and oppose their scheming. Self-proclaimed? You must have clearly forgotten that Mardier has aaaaalways been and will always be the one and only super-duper power here? All hail our yellow mega overlords! -

Don't forget that we're also heavily funding the Marderian war efforts with cash, troops and ships - because green is better split up in yellow and blue -
Shipwrights Guild Hall (WIPs, feedback, and advice)
Kolonialbeamter replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Funny you guys should talk about ships from that era -
There's nothing in the rules hinting at such a mechanic, and it wouldn't make sense, as you said. So IMO, that's a no, the fortress does not 'participate' in the blockade. But better address @SkaForHire to have certainty here.

From this day on Seigneur De Truguet may present the following crest as his personal coat-of-arms: Granoleon, Mar. 5th. 617AE -
Shipwrights Guild Hall (WIPs, feedback, and advice)
Kolonialbeamter replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
@Bregir Stunning looking ship - smooth lines - yeah! Great work on 'tying down' the bowsprit. I only think your (well, the ship's) mizzen mast is a bit too tall. Oh, I hope you manage to capture that same light effect again when you do the final shots - it looks kinda majestic. @Captain Genaro Great looking brig, love how you angled the deck @Maxim I Niiiice! Just... are you going Sea Rats? @Legostone Is that plan from a fantasy ship of some sort? Those lines look awkwardly exaggerated. And those quarterdeck's gun-ports make my head spin around, especially in relation to the (side)galleries -
Asking the real questions here... Well, I hope we can make sure it won't be too much off schedule. If that's not possible/wanted, there might be another option. I'll text you.

Welcome to Oleon and BoBS, KotZ Great choice of imperial color - the seas are blue after all. Nice to see your adventurous entourage ready to contribute to Oleon's glory Quick LDD-tip: if you first place the head on a torso, and only then the scabbard, you'll avoid this 'long neck' effect. May the Gods bless all your voyages! -
The Beginning of the End
Kolonialbeamter replied to Captain Genaro's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
First, Father Leon 'unfortunately' passed away, and now this... Huuuh, the suspense is kiln me! Great build, CG, love all the details here, and the light really adds to the atmosphere, too - a reason more your Veleianders are sweating so much. Now, have the manager file that paperwork correctly, those two and three fifths DB compensated by the company, and then get those workers back on track - Lavalette needs bricks! -
[COR-FB] Captured War Galley "Carnage"
Kolonialbeamter replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Row, row, row your boat... Finally a vessel that doesn't steal all the wind, so there's more left for the faster ships Neat - you finished her! Looking decent, although I'm not the biggest fan of those quarter round plates at the bow, but then, she's an experiment. Now, build a larger one! Just one thing: after half the journey I'd have your crew change sides - they are only rowing with one hand -
More prospecting on Serentia near Stormhaven
Kolonialbeamter replied to Mike S's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Lovely prospecting scene, Mike The flowing water effect is my favorite, but that sieve on the bucket - great detail! Just... your 'prospecteers' seem in such a bad mood. Don't let mathematical odds of striking wealth bring them down - have a little faith -
[COR-FB] Temple of Poseidon, King's Harbour
Kolonialbeamter replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Ah, some love for the Faith The temple turned out pretty nice. Simple as necessary to fit an early colonial settlement, yet elegant enough to be a beacon of spiritual guidance for those in need. Wonderful. I really like your depiction of all three major Gods (and Zeus' golden crown), and the priests (of Poseidon) look just right for the social purpose they are fulfilling. Thanks for showing that the Faith is an all-Hallosian institution.- 7 replies

[SR-MRCA] Long John Bronze (4A) Capture
Kolonialbeamter replied to dr_spock's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
I just love your way of story telling - minimalistic, but super effective - and fun! Oh, and the ship is nice, too. If you want to improve some things, stick to what LS said -
Behold: the thread necromancer! Nah, I just had to chime in here, too. Bregir, this is just a splendid MOC. I'm not sure what to like better - the build or the story... I really like the water effects, the way the jungle blends into the build, that cute angled dock... and the city walls don't seem to be too much of an obstacle for MAR's attack forces Kudos to you and CW for those round tower thingies, very cool design, very Eslandola-esque, always love to see them The yacht... yeah, nice mix of SNOTed lower hull, and 'normal' upper part - that's just a cool way to build (full hull) ships What are you using to stabilize the masts? Flextubes... or prayers? Oh, I think some headrails would have been nice for stabilizing the beakhead... and for show, of course. Save journey to Montoya! Hope to see him in game at some point... oh, wait, for that I'd need to use a sigfig

[OL - Feb FB1] Crecopia Residence
Kolonialbeamter replied to Brandon Stark's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Nice build, Brandon. Sharp design, and the minifig posing is quite good for LDD standards. Next step - full interior - you can do it And one tip: if you rotate your build in LDD, you'll get better lighting easily. In this case, turn it 90° counter-clockwise, or 180°, and voilà - more sunlight, without having to fiddle around with the scene.sc. -
Now, that is what an official Lego ship should look like! Great work on this one - and as on the junk, boxes well used. It certainly doesn't look like a rushed build. Just... the masts could have been higher, with more sails. Maybe you were out of those intimidating red ones? Anyway, 'great' to have seen the honorable Captain in action once again... Oh, you don't happen to have some pics of Lady Arlene's behind?
-
Heck, yeah, now that's a piece of junk! Lovely cliché Asian design elements. and I just love that use of boxes for gunports. I agree that custom sails would suit the ship better, but then, you've built the ships around the availability of those Lego-sails in the first place... But maybe we can hope for more junk from you at some point?

[OL - FB] The 'Pélican'
Kolonialbeamter replied to Kolonialbeamter's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Yes, probably. I used the same slopes, turned 180° along their y-axle once. The thing is just that the more (curved) slopes you use in a hull, the more 'vertical stripes' the ship gets, and that looks odd at a larger scale. At least to me. Basically, this here - mast stays up, sail comes down: -
Finally some time to comment... LS, this is a splendid looking frigate - probably my favorite ship of yours so far The shape is sleek and the colors are awesome... Plus, your sails are getting better and better - especially as these were a rushed job. Ever thought about selling personalized sails? The only thing that's slightly bugging me is that your beak-head is two studs wide. At this scale, one stud should be more realistic. But that's maybe just personal preference. Keep 'em ships coming
