I find every now and then white bricks in the Lego Stores :)

Yeah I fear so :p I am always in trouble when I have to build sth grey as my collection is mostly white and tan :(

Nice first ship :D For future ships: I would say make the transition between upperdeck and the rest of the ship smoother (only exception are cogs )

To add my two cents (together with MKjoshA, we already have 4 cent!!!! yeeeeeey!!!), I like it that the moment you post more than 2 things a month, you need approvals of other factions :)

Amazing MOC!!! Although the face do scares me a bit...

Amen :D I couldn't follow the stream of MOC's that were made and I just lacked the place and time to build back then, so I lost track of GoH since then...

Thanks! Thanks :D As said in the first post, I can't really use my thumb atm... I saw the gaps when I was uploading the pictures. Maybe I'll take new pictures soon without the gaps :) I am looking forward to it! Thank you Garmadon :)

I got a sweet idea for natives :D

May I use a ship build in the past and make a complete new MOC around it? (so the ship is just an extra)? And will I be able then to licence the ship?

Thanks! You're welcome :D Oh, first exploring the world before we start with childs :D Me not hahaha :p Although I do have an idea for a wedding setting Thanks Kai! Thanks Well, I asked permission to the King (Kabel) first. But for the others who want to marry in the future, I am sure he has many more daughters and sons

This made me really laugh!! Nice job!!!

I like your version of this historic set! Only remark is that the battlements should be one brick higher in order to be more realistic :)

Yeeey, more dinners and food!! :D Excellent job on making such a vibrant atmosphere!

Funny story and excellent photographing!!! I love the ship. The rigging looks good (I have to start rigging my ship this evening, lord help me pls...) :D

I like the build (so congratz to your wife! :D ) It is very peacefull :D

Great MoC together with a great story!! (or vice versa :p ) I love how you incorporated the linnen on the bed :)

I know blacksmith is in the artisan description, but it is very hard to build a weaponfactory on 16x16 studs...

Can I licence this as factory?

Absoluytely amazing!! the hut is really topnotch!

Great build and as others have mentioned, a very clever and funny idea!!

Very nice introduction!!! :D Another sweet cobblestoned MOC!

First of all sorry for the picture quality, it is kinda dark outside... Also sorry for the small cracks in the build, I hurt my thumb yesterday, so I can't use both hands to brick :( Anyhow, on Nelissa, there lays a small settlement called Elysabethtown. As this is the hamlet where MAESTRO starts their oversea activities, MAESTRO opened a Swordsmith here. (please note that Elysabeth is not granted officially yet, but after reading the rules once again, it should not be a problem to start a hamlet on Nelissa). The flags of MAESTRO and Eslandola waving proudly in the wind. The groundfloor is the swordsmith. On the upperfloor, a soldier lives in a small cosy room. The soldier really enjoys his station. Thanks to the little roof, he has no sunburns and every now and then he can take a nap or a bite in one of Filipe de la Manzana's delicious apples as nothing really interesting happens in peacefull Elysabethtown right now... Well, I hope it fits for the EGS as free licenced small build. I wonder if it is categorized as factory or as artisans workshop? It is really difficult to build a factory on a 16x16 base... C&C welcome :)
