Thanks for all your positive replies guys *sweet* Glad you liked it.. Dan

Alright I will give them a try and let you know. Thanks again for sharing... Thanks, that was helpful... I will try some new techniques next time... Rag-tag bunch I guess.. :-/

Thank you guys for all your comments! Much appreciated. Thanks for the warm welcome into your pirate forums, and for all the compliments! I hope that would be a good thing? I will break it... I don't have many pieces, so I have to re use my lego bricks for new moc's. Thank you! *sweet* Yea, your absolutely right about my story, the actual gray stone tower was built centuries before this. It was a nice place to keep treasures hidden, and featured only one secret cave entrance into the keep. Unfortunately it was abandoned... Centuries later the Spanish came, looking for treasures and trading with these lands, they colonized the outpost with white/yellow more modern bricks... The question is: Will these men be able to defend themselves from tensions with the French armada, and Pirate attacks? Thanks for sharing these flags, they look great! What waves? I didn't mean to actually make any ocean waves, i just put blue plates just to hold the baseplates together. Selling Pirate sets on bricklink if anyone is interested PM me. Yea I can try that... But it was meant to be more of a rocky island layout, compared to a jungle layout. Can you show me some examples of staircases? I had no idea how to start on these to be honest; I struggled some. Part of the problem was building the rock first...then trying to build a tower on top... It's less than ten men... not really considered an army. Thank you very much. You are absolutely right! I built the rock before anything... Then added the tower into it. Thanks for your compliments, glad you like it, and say it's realistic looking. Thanks again everyone!

Hi everyone, I am new here... I just wanted to post on a MOC I have worked on for a bit, and finally took pics, I know some aren't that good. I also feel, I didn't take enough interior shots... Well anyway here its. :-$ It's suppose to be a Spanish colonization of a Medieval Keep, or fortress. I used a 6276 for most of the Spanish buildings, and some took directly from the set and placed it on to the layout. It took a while to actually get enough armada minifigs, I had initially meant this MOC to feature the bluecoat minifigs, but changed my mind later, as I think these look cooler >:-) . Please excuse the background mess. Here is a link to the brickshelf folder: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=290042 Let me know if you guys have any questions, or what you think.
