Captain Green Hair

Another project worth following is the HMS Victory being build in minifigure scale by our member Teddy. Spanning multiple years and costing litteraly thousands of bricks this may not go unnoticed! Discuss this wonderfull project here!

Whoops, sorry! The bow looks good, and the colorscheme is decent too. It looks a bit like a civil war American frigate. The only improvement i can think of at the moment is that it should be smaller at the stern. This can clearly be seen in this picture: Are you going to make one of these LDD ships in real some time Joey?

Dare i inquire why the gundecks are open?

Man that baby looks good! Can't wait to see it under full sail and rigging, on some slightly sharper pics.

Yeah i know the game, in fact i still have it en enjoyed it very much. This is a great rendition you made here, can we expect some comics with it?

Ha nice truck Phred, i see you got Chuck Norris's son also one! Did you add suspension so it can do jumps like the General? Love the quotes too, good laugh!

I fourth this statement, no problem for me!

Thanks for the kind words guys! No, then Indy will get mad.....and i don't wanna piss him off. You are right in that, thanks for pointing it out. Below you'll find a picture of the new version. Sure, give me bricks! If i drop it, it will be on your head! Just keep building, you'll get there sometime. Too much time on my hands? I wish i started this project in May 2008, and i still have a long way to go. No she won't indeed. I'm planning on selling a copy, so make me an offer i can't refuse. Thanks buddy, i'll finish her, no worries. Ok, so i redid the above water part, this is now version 3: I need to take out some little flaws, but i think it looks much better. C&C on this part is still very welcome!

Thanks for sgaring this, this really gives some usefull tips! I'm still struggling with the SNOT at times, but i love a bit of puzzling though.

Welcome to Eurobricks! I very much second that! That looks like a cool project, can't wait to see it! Feel free to create threads about your other MOCs as well.

Looks like a decent station to me aleady! You could add a timetable, as a big sign hanging from the building or just standing on a pole. The red stripe under the roof in the facade seems a bit out of place, i'd remove that. A black stripe under the roofs could add something, even more when also done on the sides of the roof on the facade. Good luck with it!

Silicone spray works, also white acid free vaseline is good for it.

Indeed well said. When you don't trust a seller, go pick the items up and pay the at that moment. If the seller disagrees, then don't buy it!

Aaaaah ok, i didn't know there was a gold plated one as well, sorry! I'd like one of those chrome gold ones though.

Welcome to Eurobricks!

Excellent model, i love how the sides open up to show the engine! I googled about to find an image of the real thing, but i couldn't find a good one. Could you supply us with a good image for comparisation?

The cheapest new one on BL is 109,99$. http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?pg=17&...mp;searchSort=P Are you serious?

Have you checked BL yet? I know there are chrome gold 3PO's on there.

80 figures and a board is doable IMO, only the problem with stratego is that you need to build little tents around them not to show their positions to the enemy... I was thinking about making ''sea battle'' with micro scale ships. It's still on my projects list, but if somebody likes to execute the idea, go ahead!

Well i invision using one of these, as you can easily attach a horn to it. For the body i suggest you check out BS, there's a few good brickbuild horses on there, in just about the size you need. Good luck with it!

Some people made the top part black with electrical tape, i think RTN and HMS243 did it quite succesfully.

What should the dimensions be Joey? (in studs)

20 old brown 9 red 1 dark blue 1 light grey 31 thus, so if anybody want's to trade...

That's cool, looks like something from a boardgame like Stratego.
