Nosaj

Very nice... I must admit, im not familiar with any of the new boat pieces or anything though.. i havent been active on the forums or and lego in general in almost a year

Looking good... I really love the figure head now that I can see it Looks so much better with less curve

Let me start by saying great adaptation and welcome to the forums... I may try something like this someday as it is a great idea and vague enough to easily modify it to your needs... Hell, you can even use some MOCs. I actually have quite a few ideas now...

Fantastic ship... Its amazing how well beer and legos work together And as derfel cardarn said, Metallica helps too

Great review... I would get some, but I am currently taking a brake from lego to persue ther interests and hobbies... well that and I am trying to keep my collection to official LEGO(aside from some sails and custom rigging ofcourse)

sounds like skull island to me.

they look good although, woody if you are reading this, you may want too apply a coat of ModgePodge sealant or even some kind of polyurethane. It will give it some shine and lok closer to official lego.

Looking forward to seeing the fat design come into play and how well it works out... How many guns will it have? Looks like 18 broadsides, but I dont know if you plan on adding some to the top decks. 18 is good for broadsides though, the one I started(its building has been postponed) is only going to have 16 broadsides with posissibly up to 4 cannons on the top deck.

by LEGOs crows nests, do you mean the piece you can attach rigging to, or do you mean the little bucket(like the one on Kraken Attackin)?

I am in love with that figurehead The green looks quite good aswell... Makes me kind of sad I had to post pone the start of my ship(need money for other hobbies)

Ha... I have wondered if anybody would realize that Nosaj is my name backwards Good work detective... I think CB may have the right idea on keeping it at one deck, or maybe making it longer so you could add a second...

I think the blue and orange could give it an interesting look, but it isnt looking so great at the moment... what I would do is try to put maybe an orange stripe going through the blue rather that such un-attached color, maybe make the lower deck not so high up on such a short ship, and on your top deck, dont use 2xanything bricks, but make a pretty railing (look at some other ship MOCs for inspiration). Also, a lot of the walls look a little bit square (especially the bow), so maybe try to fix that up a bit... Get some of that done, and your ship will start to become a beauty EDIT: Also remember, your railings dont need to be so high, especially when using solid bricks... Generally 2 bricks or less is high enough, and really 1 1/3-1 2/3 is plenty high enough... want to be sure the minifigs can see over them after all

I like the uneven look... and I have actualy just realized, if you look closely, only a little bit on the top is where water could escape, but the bottom majority is sealed(you can see somewhat of a black dish type thing inside of it)

Hey I would love to see the Armadas return... Although the armada its self wasnt accurate in the classic line, it is still the most accurate soilders for the pirates to battle. I hope they come back, after all I am NOT looking forward to the POTC line. (as I have said before, I like LEGO, I love POTC, but I am not crazy about the two being combined)

Man, I knew there was another! Thats why I put "or of very few anyway" because I was pretty tired and knew I was missing something... There are probably a few others, but i am not familiar with many, I just cannot believe I forgot Sir Henry Morgan... Oh well, like I said, I was tired... you can tell by all of the spelling errors I just had (and fixed ) Edit: Hey look at that.. This was my 100th post... yay!

I think it looks great, but on a hisp with just two midsectoins, you should definently give it a little less curve in the middle section. It reminds me of a blowfish...

Very cool ... looking forward to seeing it, although to be perfectly honest I have absolutely no idea what you were saying about the red and bluecoats And jeeze, why do you guys insist on attacking us pirates, if you just sent us some treasure from time to time, maybe we wouldnt always maim you

Perhaps that means it is time to close this thread?

Who knew? I am a little suspicious of Plastic Nuraks knowledge of... Megehh , eh I cant even say it... forums... hope he isnt betraying Lego. What I find really sad is that they have the balls to accuse LEGO of copying THEM... I mean seriously...

Much better... but you spelt "Boneparte" wrong... again... Ah Sir Francis Drake... indeed one of my favorite pirates, and probably the only one (or of very few anyway) pirates out there who actually get knighted... You should have but Edward Teache (spelling?) under black beard to throw some people off and see who knows some gerneral pirate knowledge

So, have you made any progress lately? Oh and just a few sites that might be ok to buy more legos: Bricklink.com Ebay.com (duh ) Lego.com (duh... again) I dont have many yet, but I will edit sme more in as I find them, mmkay... Oh, and just pitching ideas to our great moderators here at eurobricks... Perhaps some kind of index of sites that you can buy LEGO from? perhaps there is one that I just havent strayed acrossed?

I really love this MOC... Historically accurate, and great craftsmanship. I love all of the action being portrayed here, and i bet that half-ship was tough to make... or was it half as hard to build as a full ship HAHAHA... ok maybe Im not as funny as I thought

That is actually a really good idea... I would like to see some people use this with SNOT (studs not on top, for those who are not familiar with the LEGO termology) pieces to give it a more boarded up ship look... it would make it look a lot more accurate... Thanks for sharing

Wow this thread caused a lot of commotion... I dont really understand the point of the poster or the entire thread honestly... as people have mentioned, there are no pirates... I dont see how a thread like this can even be made into a pirates thread... better off removing it in my mind to be honest.... And just out of curiosity, where are all of the native americans and other people... havent really seen anybody type stuff about cortez...

I never really thought about that... everybody seems to reference red and bluecoats, although the spanish armada is the most accurate... hmm
