Come on! Small merchant ships are the best! They are more down to earth and "realistically playable" if that thing exists at all!

[OL - OKT] Oktoberfest out in the country
blackdeathgr replied to CapOnBOBS's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
That is a really awesome Bavarian/Alpine building! The red touches on the roof do wonders! Also...sheep!!! -
[OL-FB] The Shield of Aurelia
blackdeathgr replied to Keymonus's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Oh, how the mighty forts of OL have evolved! Definitely some bad megablocks goodies such as those mortars and cannons guarding our islands! -
[OL - Claim] Down in the Tunnels
blackdeathgr replied to CapOnBOBS's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
And that is what I call a really good "night" photo shooting! Will they stumble upon a great "Incan" treasure or subterranean temple? A super rare precious stone? A stash of weapons left there by pirates? -
[COR - FB] ETTC Offices, New Haven
blackdeathgr replied to Ayrlego's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
I am not sure about the SNOT gondola but all the rest are impeccable as always!!! Clever roof technique btw! -
Simple but tremendously effective regarding posing minifig choices and delivering the message the headline describes!

Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion, Era II
blackdeathgr replied to blackdeathgr's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Don't you just love that new SW minifig?!?!?! So "pirate-y"! -
Yes please! Join the club! Goats aren't that good since armor won't take off but boars with detachable saddles are beasts of their own and easily usable anywhere! TLG better read our comments and come out with more varied molds!!!

No need to read more. I am hooked just by the choice of words like "Slim Shady" and "Oi, squire"! You surely plucked A LOT of levers to make those tulips, Mr B!

A noble cause. Your kid is surely lucky! Now all that remains is to sprinkle some Dots all over the deck! -
[OL - FB] Beauchamp Shipyard Twin Blast Furnaces
blackdeathgr replied to CapOnBOBS's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
It has become my favorite too! -
This must be the absolutely best version of a watermill yet as I believe it has near perfectly dimensions (aka "wood" thickness)! We really need a building guide! Coming with a really detailed building, fantastic rockwork and an era appropriate carriage helps tremendously too!!!

Shipwrights Guild Hall (WIPs, feedback, and advice)
blackdeathgr replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
More cannons to pose a threat to OL fleet maybe? Muhahahaha! (joking ofc) If you aren't using hinged bricks for structural reasons already, at the bottom gray line, I would try to use some curved slopes at its bow and stern if possible, for a more curved hull impression (as master @Bregir pinpointed to me once among many other things when I posted this boxy monstrosity !). Your shape, size and width is definitely spot on I would say!!! By the way has anyone found sufficiently thin waxed ropes? I am finding thicker versions all over the place but nothing sufficiently thin to use at ratlines. Also has anyone found (a sacrilege I know but it saves time!) ready made ratlines from a model shop? It's an idea I am having in my mind for quite some time but I have yet to encounter any at a proper minifig scale either. Alternatively I don't know if anything like that helps (seems too extravagant though) since I know nothing of tying ratlines myself. -
After some research (and accidental stumbling upon), arguably the best colored pirate so far (besides Prince of Persia Middle Eastern minifigs) is Greef Karga from SW theme. You can use this minifig as it is or replace its arms with reddish brown ones and ready to go! Not costing an arm and a leg, helps too!

[OL - FB] King's College, Breshaun
blackdeathgr replied to CapOnBOBS's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Blue and white never looked better at a building! I really love the fence and the fountain and the "Monsier Admiral Statue" is well posed too! -
[WIP] Jack Stone Hulled ship WIP experiment. NOW COMPLETE!
blackdeathgr replied to Elephant Knight's topic in Pirate MOCs
Due to the excessive sloping/tumblehome at the bow, it looks like more of a "space frigate" to me (a' la Disney's Treasure Island) , rather than a "usual" age of sails ship. Still, you have managed to incorporate those 4+ pieces really seamlessly and one cannot easily discern where the big piece ends and where the small bricks start. -

[COR- Faction Flavors] Antonio's office
blackdeathgr replied to Justsomebrix's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
A really nice vignette! Small details as others mentioned (the sword hilt, desk chair, horizontal wooden beams, candlestick ) make it really shine, while minifigs are cleverly chosen.- 9 replies

José's Inn - Ye Olde BoBS Drinking Hole
blackdeathgr replied to Darnok's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Now I love you a little more my friend! Given the Era seting, I am sure we will see some great things! -
Nice one! Printed uniforms are always the best However strange, DUPLOs are only cheap at yard sales. If you buy them new or from BL, they cost a lot more money compared to the System bricks.

Lovely ship with an even better interior!!!!

Outstanding building! And I really like all the clutter around it!
