Looks great. I love all the little details you put into every room of the build. Great idea to add an extra 16x32, it really gave you the room you needed to make it feel like a hotel. My only suggestion is to put more photos in your first post At least one overview of each level.

As the heroes stand around talking about going over to the game, but doing nothing, the sky darkens and eventually the two men slink away. The heroes have not much left to do but head back to the cabin in the darkness. All the heroes lay down on the their own beds and sleep. The sleep comes easier than they thought it would and soon it's morning again. It occurs to Tesni that the ship will be landing in port tonight. Will the party hang out in the cabin until the ship docks or will they wander around the ship again?

Yes

I'd say it should go in Special Themes.

The man with the eye patch notices the party has stopped a short distance away and is watching him. When the other player looks a the cards, the man with the eyepatch glances over at the party and makes a shooing motion with his hand as his eyes dart from the party to the other man and back to the party. He looks very nervous.

I picked up a bunch of the shallow (as linked) and the deep (8 bin) containers. Actually I bought all they had, couldn't pass it up for the price. I've actually started using them tonight and thought I would drop in with my opinion. These cases from Harbor Freight are nice but they are not as nice as the Stanley (walmart) or Bolton Tools (ebay) version. At a glance they do look nearly identical, but the clear lid part does not sit totally flat against the top of the bins like the other brands do. The bins themselves do not fit as snuggly into the case itself either, and they are thinner which means a little space is lost by the bowing on the sides. The deeper bins version is way too large of bins to be of much use for me on minifig parts. I might be able to use them for sorting slopes or somthing like that, not sure yet - at this point I"m considering taking the large ones back. Were these worth the $7.99 +tax? Yes, definately. What will they be used for? Larger minifig parts - torsos and legs only.

Oh, I'm successful!

You can turn off the contact feature via the "My Bricklink" settings page. Sellers (and buyers) will still be able to contact you in regard to an actual order but people won't be able to contact you "randomly" using the PM feature.

Nice one Flipz! Brickdoctor fights weren't hard enough already.

Flipz, do you ever consider you might be over-analizing something that is suppose to be a fun game to play on a forum?

It's a LOT easier than that. You just go to the PAB page for the store you want to update, click the image for the "bucket" you want to update and fill out the form. It's all instant.

Another great find from SirSven7 [bloggedcp][/bloggedcp] Libertatia Microfigura by V&A Steamworks Libertatia Microfigura by V&A Steamworks by V&A Steamworks, on Flickr As a sucker for microfigure creations, I instantly loved this scene. Looking even closer at the photo though, I see some really interesting techniques. The whole thing comes together well and in such a small space. I think the dock and pier is probably my favorite part, what say you?

The party wanders around the ship as the bright day turns to twilight. Most crew members seem to be busy and there are not many passengers out and about, but they come accross a few folks around the ship. At the fishing dock, there are some crew and passengers busy fishing. They don't seem to be having as much trouble as the heroes had that morning... As the heroes approach the docks, the man who rents the poles shakes his head. "We don't want any trouble tonight, if you don't mind." The captain and first mate are the same place the party met them the night before... The first mate pours the captain some more rum. "A fine night for sailing. Fine night indeed." Remarks the captain. And some passengers or crew (it's hard to tell) are playing a game of cards. "Woa, no need to get upset. Here you win this hand. Lets have a new deal." The man with the eyepatch seems to be trying to keep the other calm as they play.

I love these creator house sets. I always learn some new techniques from them. Thanks for the great review Pandora!

Lots and lots of light. Those tiny "lenses" need a lot of light for getting a clean photo. It can be done but you need lots of light...more than you think.

OH Awesome! Thanks for the heads-up, I will go by there tomorrow and see if they have a few cases of those. Here's a couple examples what I do with mine from "Bolton Tools", they are deeper than that purple Stanley one I have. I hope the ones from Harbor Freight are deep like these yellow ones. As you can see these are perfect for sorting minifig parts. Additionally because the bins are removable it is great for building say an army of figs with black hair or whatever, without having to take up a lot of space on the table with the whole container but just the bin with the parts needed. Minifig Hair (sorted by color and a some by style) Minifig Heads (sorted by pattern and color)

Cookee comes out from behind the crate and straightens his bandana. He looks around at the mushroom pieces everywhere, and picks up the box the mushrooms jumped out of. "My wild mushrooms, those were for the stew and now you are going to eat them?" He sighs sadly, looks over at Maurice who was busy finding a place to store the Oneupshroom cap in his bag. "Tell you what, toss that cap in the stew pot and I'll give you a Pheonix Essense potion. Wouldn't want the mushroom cap to spoil in your bag after all." He smiles as Maurice tosses the mushroom cap into the pot. "Excellent, that should bring a little life to the crew after dinner." He laughs at his own joke and fetches the vial of Pheonix Essense and hands it to Maurice. "Now, if you don' mind, sorry to rush you out and all, but I really need to clean this mess and get thew stew finished. Some of the crew and passengers can be rather crazed, especially if they have not eaten." He opens the door and thanks the party again for the fresh catch, closing the door behind them as they leave. Where will the party go now?

Happy Birthday!

RESULTS OF ROUND FOUR Tesni vs. Tinyshroom - War Cry Eric vs. Oneupshroom - Ravage Namyrra vs. GrowshroomTinyshroom - Special Damage Maurice vs. Tinyshroom - Critical Hit (No Stun) Tesni is getting hungrier by the second with the smell of the manta ray stew cooking, she let's out a mighty war cry to encourage her party to finish this fight quickly so they can have some hot food. Eric takes it as a challange and dashes in to attack all the enemies, leaving one in peices on the floor and another barely clinging to life, his hands clenching stacks of gold on the way back to his place. Namyrra switches targets as Eric took out the growshroom, but the tinyshroom let's loose with a cloud of yellow spores. As Namyrra chokes on the dust, Maurice flattens the Tinyshroom with his new staff in a fit of rage. Oneupshroom loses 3 maximum health as a result of being cursed. Maurice loses 3 maximum health as a result of beng cursed. Namyrra loses 3 maximum health as a result of being cursed. Enemies Oneupshroom Type: Plant Level: 20 *cursed* Health: 32/88 (100) Special: Green Spores - The mushroom unleashes it's spores on the attacker which siphon the life from the attacker and into the mushroom.

Be careful sorting by theme, it can limit you subconciously on how you use the torsos. I sort mine by color, but if I have a lot that go together i sort those separately. It's a bit complex to explain I guess. I should get a photo sometime, it really does work well for me at least - quick to find what I need. The different colors/prints/styles/whatever are in zip baggies and then stored in a big tub: I think the most important peice of my torso sorting is that I keep track of how many of each actual torso I have via the Bricklink stockroom feature. This way if I'm trying for a certain look I can start searching on Bricklink and once I find the perfect one, use the item number to search my inventory and see if I have it before wating any time looking through my actual parts. It's saved me a lot of time and money having it all inventoried.

RESULTS OF ROUND THREE Tesni vs. Tinyshroom - Defended Counter Eric vs. Oneupshroom - Special Damage Namyrra vs. Growshroom - Spell Maurice vs. Tinyshroom - Critical Hit (Stun) Tesni moves over to assist Maurice in taking down the tinyshroom, but the quick little fella manages to cart in and give her a bite just before she smacks it with her sword. The oneupshroom shoots it's life leaching spores at Eric, luckily for Eric they don't all reach him in the back row. Namyrra shoots a stream of ice at the growshroom and it screams in pain as it's soft flesh freezes. Maurice finally manages to connect a strike with his new staff, piercing the mushroom with the poison tip and leaving it stunned. Oneupshroom loses 3 maximum health as a result of being cursed. Maurice loses 3 maximum health as a result of beng cursed. Enemies Growshroom Type: Plant Level: 20 Health: 24/100 Special: Red Spores - The mushrooms unleashes it's spores on the attacker which causes the weakend effect for the next three turns or until remedied or the battle ends.

Any enemy not targeted will get a Free Hit on the party after everyone has acted.

It is small on the real thing, but remember that when printed this is a minifig torso (small) and so you'll need to make the logo a bit bigger if you want it to be recognizable. Even if it isn't 100% true to the source material, you need to take that sort of artistic licence with it to make it seem more realistic . Hopefully what I just said isn't totally confusing.
