  1. Yikes! If you can churn a class 5+ ship that nice in in 19 hours, there is not much hope for the rest of us. :) Something I can't make out. Did you use two/three rows of jumper plates to built out the hull width by 1/2 lugs increments, or is it full lug increments?
  2. That's a nice little base of operations who have built. I especially like the colouring of the 2nd storey residence; I'm going to use your inverted flower detail idea in the future.
  3. I got a bored at the office yesterday and decided to do a quick and dirty update to Ska's map to tide me over until he finds free time to do it himself. Hurray for MS Paint! Enjoy!
  4. We prefer to be called "the ethically challenged". Though if the MCRA predatory form target categories could be cleaned up a bit in this regard (i.e. 'Pirates' become 'Sea Rats', and 'Other" changed to include NPC pirates), it would help with this ever ongoing debate as to Sea Rats being 'evil pirates' or 'free traders'. And then Meloche will come along and muck it up again of course by trying to do something dastardly... and failing at it again as per usual.
  5. I have bid.
  6. Era II Dramatis Personae (Kwatchi & Gulagurag): Era II Storyline:
  7. Tell me about it. Seems I went after a fellow Sea Rat this cruise (and failed mind you) since I clicked "pirates" as one of my targets. My first thought is that I chased my own tail or something... BTW, by my attacking a sea Rat does that now make me an Eslandolan?
  8. Seems Charlatan Bay didn't get entered as a settlement.
  9. Looks like a nice little build to do over an evening. Simple and effective.
  10. Another great vignette Pombe!
  11. As teasers go, that's a good 'un. Enjoy your weekend and thanks giving me something to look forward to next week!
  12. As anxious as we all are to see what occurred, I hope he takes as much time as he needs. After over a decade of volunteer work, I learned that the quickest way to burning out is when outside pressure makes things cease to be fun. Ska, work at whatever pace you want. I doubt there is any player in BoBS who doesn't appreciate what you are doing (I'll assume on behalf of all here), and whatever time you can put in to this world you created is fine by us.
  13. This joint effort story line has proven real interesting. I'm enjoying it immensely. Great vignette Kai. I loved the bookshelf and the press. Only comment I'll make is that I thought the apprentice in the first frame (Sebastian Navarrez?) was naked at first glance on my phone. That all-beige view from the rear could have used some colour variation or maybe I higher chair back to break it up.
  14. I agree. His change from white to brown beard last "episode" did leave him looking kinda... odd. Hence he gets a shave this month. I debated switching to just a mustache, but he looked even weirder. I suppose there is an art to being a good barber/hair stylist.
  15. The Barber-Surgeon of Saville | Kwatchi | Sea Rats 'Big Tobacco's Schraebitz Plantation | Kwatchi | Sea Rats
  16. A native of the southern nation of Salleek, Alsin Jarpur was a free spirit who made his living as a barber in his home country, like his father before him. Succumbing to wanderlust, he travelled up along the Merlonic Sea coast until a fateful day in Oleon when he was press ganged on to the royal frigate Saville. That began a decade of servitude in the cramped, miserable confines of the Oleon ship where he became as a surgeon’s mate thanks to his skill with a sharp razor blade. At some point in his impressed servitude, he learned of the Old Faith of the Patheon of Three from some of his fellow sailors, and though not devout, took to it as his own in order to fit in with his mess mates. During a cruise to the Sea of Thieves, the Saville made port at Astrapi to refit after having lost a number of spars during a storm. Ever longing for freedom, Alsin took the opportunity to jump ship and hid in the wilderness until the frigate had sailed. Then after finding little compassion for a foreigner amongst the populace of Isle de Zeus, he heard a rumour of a nearby colony where the Old Faith was practiced once again. Stealing a fishing smack, he made his way to Charlatan Bay where he was received with open arms. He was given a place in the nascent colony and established himself a barber shop on the main floor of a house built by a family who had succumbed to malaria weeks prior. Fate had taken a hand perhaps. Alsin Jarpur has quickly become a fixture in the free port. While not a fervent believer, he makes his devotions to Hades and Poseidon each morning and his living mostly by way of barbering for the town folk and passing seaman; though he will occasionally be called into action as a surgeon when a raider ship makes port after having badly lost a fight. The Dark Bishop himself can frequently found in the barber shop after his recent rejuvenation (see previous) and seems on rather cordial terms with Jarpur. Some note however that Meloche’s visits for a haircut and shave tend to coincide with when Alsin is required to conduct an amputation, and some secretly whisper that the Captain feeds on the pain and suffering of those poor souls under the knife. ==== This will be licensed as a small artisan. And I promise, no more indoor vignettes for a while. :)
  17. Posting the following, as my brother seems to have forgotten to: The Other Tale of the Sacking of Bardo | Gulagurag | Sea Rats Charlatan bay Tailor Shop | Gulagurag | Sea Rats
  18. Wow! While I don't think I would have chosen so many grimacing faces for what I assume are a lot of dual print heads (I am guessing on this point tbh), I'm envious of the build itself. Every part is well envisioned and translated to brick. Great job
  19. I enjoyed reading the story. Nice job.
  20. I like the design. It captures the Asian touch you are going for.
