    Wonderful!

    Fantastic, thanks!

    Ok! I've updated the first picture, now it's BIGGER and eye catchy! You want to add big pictures here, so we can see all the fine details. So how do you do that? Simple, here is the tutorial. (click to see the secret) This way you can edit all of your small pictures. If you are unsure, and don't want to make mess, you can go to training ground for new members here-click and practice your posting pictures skills. And, welcome aboard

    Ha! I love this little detail! And historically this is quite accurate, the canny merchants sometimes did paint fake gun-ports on the hull to look tougher. You have really something nice going there, but we need to make some improvement with the pictures. You have Flickr account? Can you share the link to it?

    They look armed to the teeth! This glass in Captain's hand, I haven't seen this part before (I'm seriously out of date), can you please tell me the part-number?

    @Filibbooo you have been frontpaged  and

    Eurobricks member Filibbooo assures us that the trading route on the Spanish Main is safe (for the time being) from those unscrupulous Pirates. Let's quickly sail to the LEGO Pirates Forum and marvel at the new Imperial Outpost on the Rocks.

    Nice and cute build
  9. Marooned Marin
    Hah, far from it but thank you, and I'm glad you like it! Truth be told this was a team effort. You gave us enough raw material (including the original story), I did the writing, and two other outstanding individuals did the editorial reading and corrections. So, are you gonna do this out of real bricks anytime soon?

    Fantastic build! The daring use of various bright colours gives that overall tropic vibe. Do you have any images of interior, or one from the back side?

    Holy rum! He is really killing it out there, 9000 votes in only 2 months? This is going to be the fastest rejected idea ever (Armada flag, nice work )

    They say, quote, "If your region isn't listed, it means that LEGO.com isn’t currently able to deliver to you". I will check out with my LUG if they have any experience or more information about this. But, you could always order everything I need, and then set sail in your mighty vessel across the Adriatic for a cup of espresso

    I never used Pick a Brick... LEGO does not ship in my little corner of universe, so it's BrickLink life for me. How long did it take to build this? Three-four months?
  14. Marooned Marin
    You really have a knack for building extraordinary pirate hideouts! The Redbeards House was a piece of art, but this is even better I can only wait to see this out of the real bricks. How tiresome is to buy all this 8700 pieces from BrickLink? What is your process, how do you even start obtaining parts for this monster, any tips and advice?
  15. Marooned Marin
    I'm fairly new member, and this is the first time I saw this used, and now I went ahead through your topic history here on forum... man you are talented builder, so many cool designs in your MOC portfolio.

    @NOD somewhere, in one of your posts, you made a wish: As it happens, writers are in the business of wish fulfilment, so we (Classic-Pirates team) decided to use this MOC and give special coverage to Brethren of the Brick Seas inside the Cartagena post. I hope this will attract new members to the Sea Rats faction Also, you have been frontpaged  and

    Eurobricks member NOD shares with us legendary tale how a small band of Pirates got their hands on a formidable vessel, the galleon, using nothing but their wits, cannons and crate of bananas. Have some rum and swagger to the LEGO Pirates Forum and see the Galleon Cartagena.

    I love everything, and the use of pickaxe for stone building reinforcement is just brilliant!
  20. Marooned Marin
    Is this what you are referring? You made interesting modifications, looks way better with the original sails.

    check it out!

    An all time great Pirate ship builder, MOC Your Bricks, wondered what can be done with three sets of LEGO 70413 The Brick Bounty? Make way to the LEGO Pirates Forum and see his first serious pirate ship named The Skull Brother.

    This is not a render, but a real build picture which could help you. See the tiles just left of the door, from reddish-brown to brown and dark-brown. For your purposes my first try would be to go with dark-brown
  24. Marooned Marin
    Well... it's hard to help since we haven't seen the whole build, so giving advantage to one colour over the other will not help you. But! Visit this thread and study in depth the various use of colours. The Poop-deck has even bluish-gray and I find it good looking. If you study this MOC deeply you'll see that the builder used everything from black - dark brown - brown - reddish brown - to dark red! Hope this helps
  25. Marooned Marin
    Can you use both, to achieve more realistic feel of the wood? And are all those parts available on BrickLink? I find dark brown and brown very rare for most of the less popular parts.
