Captain Zuloo

Well, here are the resized images. Also, could someone of authority please tell me if there is too much overhang? Thanks. Originally the arm was supposed to be just that - an arm. But now it looks a bit like a straw of some kind. So for gruesome sake, I will say that it's a hollowed out arm that the captain is using as a straw.

Vig. 26c I had to think about this one for a while - I couldn't do too much blood due to brick constraint, and at the same time I wanted to capture the wickedness and cruelty of the pirates. Then I hit on it: EDIT & FINAL Dinner Time! The idea is simple - a pirate crew have just ransacked a port, and the captain is having a celebratory feast of home cooked Head Stew... Enjoy!

Couldn't you just crop the image to make it bigger?

This issue is sweet! I love the road article!

Yeah but TLG care more about profit than AFOL satisfaction - as they should. And their main market is of kids who couldn't care less about power efficient motors. So really, from a business point of view, they are doing what is best. And whoopie! My first town/trains post!

It's just that some people, including myself, preffer the historically accurate MOC's to the fictional ones. Don't ask why, I just like them better that way.

Um - no. That wasn't what I said at all. I meant I'll kill him. Savvy?

Rubbish - actually, I suppose as you are a Mod, it can't be rubbish. Oh well, now I know. And call me Zupoo again and I'll have your tounge...

True - enough is enough. But I like to have the last word, so when you slip up, I'll be onto ya!

Problem with that is, it's much easier to make a bad brickfilm than a bad MOC or review and people do it more often, so chances are you might give out a reveiw that hurts the person's feelings. So you would need to be careful.

Nice new image! I really like the use of top-hats here, as I wouldn't have thougt of using them as a battle uniform! I looks foward to more pictures.

My ancestors have a long lasting festival called Zuloo christmas - not to be mistaken with Zulu christmas. So you could get me them then?

Why would you want 7 of Harbour Sentry? I mean - as rare as it is, it's a crap set.

Good idea. Perhaps change the bandana for a shako or a tricorn? Just that the Royal Navy woud've given their soldiers - not sailors, but soldiers a hat other than a bandana.

Yeah - and Hinckley, Sinner and Jipay too!

5x Armada Sentry or Eldorado Fortress?

Strange - not a single mention of pickle...

Aw zorro, dont beat yourself that much. It's only because I'm so much cooler than you that I noticed.

Yeah! All you need to add is some glorious sunshine, or some miserable rain.

"while his fellow pirate goes down the rope to get the treasure..." This would be what you are reffering to?

Aw. Come on - you need to understand the playful um..."verbal abuse?" that goes on here at EB. What I said was no more inappropriate than calling picklie a phred. Or is that phred a pickle? I shall have to think about this..

True. But when you compare the Eldorado Fortress with that dock rubbish with the green doors, there is a clear standout.I do agree though that the Armada deserved better models.

And the other one:

Without realising it, when you took these images, you did yourself a big favour - by taking them in front of a plain background, I have been able to key in an ocean background. Enjoy!

Correction - Wikipedia: Piracy is robbery committed at sea, or sometimes on shore, without a commission from a sovereign nation (as distinct from privateering, robbery with sovereign commission). So a pirate doesn't actually have to kill. Just robbing and looting!
