Captain Braunsfeld

With three masts and the length extension I must admit this looks better than my old MOD:

And I thought the ship was not long enough.... How much wider would you build it? 2 studs? 4 studs?

Thanks, fellow captain!

I like this a lot. The colours, the build, the details. Congratulations!

"There once was a ship that put to sea...", oh, sorry, this MOC is not about ships - it's an island! And the island is apparently inhabited by an Admiral. @Medel has created this fine piece of rock and you can see more pictures of this creation in the LEGO Pirates Forum!

That picture is really well-designed!

The crocodile is very convincing! The eyes!!!

Nice work with the tricorne!

I did not even know that this set existed (maybe because it did not include a monkey). Nice update!

Very playable = excellent

I agree You are reading too many adventure stories!

Fantastic, although I think the idea for the ship is from SleeplessNight - am I right? Excellent work with the beach and the water. Just perfect!

You are teaching us a lesson in how to design buildings. Amazing!

A charming build!

Sholmes, Dr. Sonwat and Hallcroft Py are inside the building in Merryweather Road where the ‘Fellowship of the Greybeards’ used to meet. They are facing a door leading further into the building. Hallcroft Py: “The door is locked.” Sholmes: “Right. I have expected this.” Hallcroft Py: “And what is behind that locked door?” Sholmes: “I will find out.” Sholmes (to Sonwat): “After we got trapped during our last adventure, I decided to bring my ‘special key’ with me.” Sholmes quickly unlocks the door and they move on. Sholmes (surprised): “Hello. Who are you?” (no answer) Sholmes: “Oh, I see. This is just another torso-statue with a mask.” Hallcroft Py: “A mask?” Sholmes: “Yes. This is what I feared. Mr Py – the painting of yours was done to create a mask of your face afterwards. Then Mr. Elventree probably impersonated you to get access to the office building of EE&S.” Mr. Py: “I do not quite understand.” Sholmes: “You think that you have ghosted your job at EE&S. I think you did not.” Mr. Py: “But I never went there. As I was told by Mr. Elventree.” Sholmes: “Yes. You did not start with EE&S. Mr. Elventree masked himself as Hallcroft Py and took on the job.” Mr. Py: “But why?” Sholmes: “It must have something to do with the Bank of Pontelli, I guess.” Dr. Sonwat: “Look what I have found here!” (he holds a white bag). “This looks like what Lord Rushinthought had described – the bag with his horse race money.” Sholmes: “And – is there money inside the bag?” Dr. Sonwat (after checking): “Quite so.” Mr. Py: “What will you do now? And where is Miss Sevenfish?” Sholmes: “I do not know, unfortunately. We will leave everything here untouched. I do not want to inform the villains that we are up their trail.” Mr. Py: “But you need to do something.” Sholmes: “We will inform the officials of Pontelli at once. I know their Colonel Brickinson.” (They leave, leaving no trace of their presence.) (to be continued) The story so far: Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 (you are here) Chapter 6 There is a lot of music in this chapter. So you know how I feel while I am writing this stuff

I want to have ALL of your digital buildings in real bricks. Can you please do that and send them over?

Thanks. I am happy that you like it. (And I still ask myself whether it would look better if the stern had blue as a main colour instead of the yellow)

Congratulations

A giant skull on an island? Must be a pirate hideaway. Check out @zinnn's fine piratish creation in the LEGO Pirates Forum.

You always have to be careful. Carry an umbrella!

Ok, I thought of them as sacks filled with sand, not coconuts. But ok Yes, Pontelli's scientists are great! (and we did all of that years ago )

The Bank is a modification of the old Gringott's Bank. And I am working to recreate the lagoon lock-up for myself. It really looks great. Hallcroft Py is an accountant. So he would look like someone working in a bank. But he could have been working for Esterhazy Easterbunny & Santa! Cliff-hangers - the very nature of these stories You cannot guess everything that will be happening (and has already been photographed)

Our intrepid air travelers have landed safely in Pontelli and are now heading for the centre of the city Dr. Sonwat: “So where can we find that mysterious “Fellowship of the Greybeards”?” Sholmes: “Wait. Actually, I would like to see the office building of Easterhazy, Easterbunny & Santa first.” Mr. Py: “Let me show you. Here we are.” Sholmes: “So this is the company where you initially applied and would have started on your new job two weeks ago?” Mr. Py: “Yes, that is correct, Mr. Sholmes.” Sholmes: “That is quite interesting.” Dr. Sonwat: “What, the yellowish colour scheme of the building?” Sholmes: “No. Its neighbourhood. You look, my dear Sonwat, but you do not observe. Behold!” Hallcroft Py: “The guards? We've done nothing wrong!” Sholmes: “No, the EE&S office building is just next to the Bank of Pontelli. Doesn’t that make for an interesting neighbourhood? Ok, let us move on to the building where the FotG used to meet.” Hallcroft Py (confused): “The FotG?” Dr. Sonwat: “The Fellowship of the Greybeards!” Hallcroft Py: “Right, of course, how stupid of me. This whole adventure is getting me confused. I am just an accountant after all - and I am worried about Miss Sevenfish." Sholmes: "I am sure we will find her. And you are doing great so far as adventure-accountant. Now, where do we have to go?" Hallcroft Py: “That building is located in Merryweather Road, not too far from here. Follow me, please.” (They arrive, quietly open the unlocked door and enter. ) (The first room is the one where Hallcroft Py had been working together with Patricia Sevenfish. Now, there is no one to be seen). Sholmes: “That is a fine painting of yours, Mr. Py.” Dr. Sonwat: “The painter, Mr. Elventree, has shown a very good understanding of the human face.” Sholmes: “Mr. Py, you have indeed been painted well. But not because of the reasons Mr. Elventree told you, I am afraid.” Hallcroft Py: “Oh. But then why?” Sholmes: “We will soon find out.” Sholmes: “In fact, the answer to your question might be just behind this next door.” (to be continued) The story so far: Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 (you are here) Chapter 5

Excellent gate! I still haven't worked out how you did that front decoration. Keep going!
