Mister Phes

And it looks like that mini-figure is writhing in agony! X-D

Yes it was. And I think the angle used makes it look very two-dimensional.

What's wrong with it?

I haven't checked which instructions are available on LEGO.com but from my understanding publishing the instructions of recently released sets online is a violation of copyright for which action can be taken against. So, in order to avoid that violation the set has to reach a certain age. That's just what I've been told - I think it was Bloody Jay who originally told me.

Modified in what way? With the stud removed? The stud is the biggest problem I have with the flag on this particular ship.

Now all we need is for some Moderator to put them in the first post. *y* UPDATE Oh, its already happened while I was writing this post. The Moderators here are that good! *y* *y*

Which leads me to my next question: Is Mr Bonaparte going to build an interior for this Governors House or will it just be an exterior like the Creator sets?

It would be good to know how the Coimbra Event went. So Mr Jmacias if you're around could you spill the beans?

That would be great! We need a new Pictorial Review for the month of April or May but since I don't have a build Black Seas Barracuda that counts me out. I think I may do a small set for April and we can save a bigger one for when we get our Newsletter up and running.

I'm wondering Baron Sat, is this the only place you've advertised these instructions? Perhaps you could try eBay with a starting bid of 0.99 cents and see how high the final bid is.

That actually isn't a bad idea. I think the smaller Pirate flag would actually work better for the aft flag than what's there now. Although it may be a little big.

Mr Cole did write: So I naturally assumed all those nations were going to be making use of it simultaneously.

If you can get over the fact the sails are manufactured by Megabloks you probably could get them buy them second hand. I haven't tried searching over eBay but that would be my first port of call. But just think, you'd be taking Megabloks elements and improving on them since they are the actual bricks X-D

Put me down for a Lagoon Lockup! So many fond memories...

What a busy little bed that's going to be! X-D

Would you ever consider using the sails from a Black Pearl Megabloks set?

This isn't very helpful because using the Google search engine should be common knowledge. You should really provide a direct link to the webpage you wish to share as it seems unnecessary you make them use Google to find a website. Its an extra step that people shouldn't have to follow. This is what you should be posting: The Brickfactory LEGO instructions No Google required.

Now that might be an even better idea. I'll look into that for future "run by's" On a more serious note: As far as MOCs go the majority seem to be set modifications, but this stands out as a truly original creation

One fundamentally important thing I forgot to ask, do these Creator houses have interiors? Or is the design limited to the exterior hence why there are no mini-figures included?

I've seen instructions for 6260 Shipwreck Island sell for over US$10 just recently. In another thread I posted a link to the auction, I could dig that up if you're interested.

I was dead serious actually. X-D So tell us Mr Cole, who is this cabin for? A naval leader from one of the great nations or a no good scallywag of a pirate? Whom inhabits this cabin may influence what makes it.

Do you have pictures or can you create pictures of these details Sir Nadroj? It would be interesting to see what you're up to. I've never used LEGO Digital Designer so I'm not sure how people usually share pictures of what they build.

Actually, my question was originally directed towards Mr Tiber but anyone can answer it - just so long as Mr Tiber does!

I could give you suggestions - but it depends how much you want this MOC to stay looking like the Black Seas Barracuda as to the kind of suggestions I provide.
