Dan the Brickman

This contest was pretty fun. There were sooo many random entries. I hope we do something like this again!

The details! The details! Some of my favorite of the little details: the handle thingy on the barrel behind the counter. The bar stools, how you attached them to the floor. And the little balcony on the side of the building. very nice!

The drummer and governor's daughter are my favorite.

Um, Both? ... I build castles next to the sea, and have a small royal navy usually. I tend to mix these two together.

This is one I wished I had seen sooner. I dont think I can add much at this point to the comments. Overall, very nice. I really like how you had your sig-fig give us the tour, and the cool cannon shot picture.

My sigfig, with 4 books.... which represent me buried in homework.

EDIT: oooopsss.... posted in wrong forum in a hurry.... ------ Mutie, after copying the link, then click the picture icon, and paste it in the pop-up box. (and hit Ok/enter)

The roof. It so... GREEEEEEEEN. .... I actually said that to myself as soon as I saw this.

I wish I had seen this sooner. It is now one of my favorite castles.

wooo! Mayhaps I can win one of these! Series 3 and 4 are my favorites so far. I really want the mad scientist.

"My very hot MOC" Wheres the mermaids or girl pirates? Hehe, just kidding. Overall, pretty neat, (it looks fun to play with). I would like to see more angles though. You pretty much only gave us the front and right side angles in your photos. It would be nice to see some shots from the left side, and, you leave me curious if the back is "open" with any interior details perhaps? Very good though.

I really like the sails on that ship, and, the London escape set looks fun. Hurry up May so I can get rum bottles!!!

Its hard to add anything really, as everyone else has already said, it is awesome.

I just saw the post on facebook and had to come over and say this looks spectacular.

woot! some medieval civilians finally! This next year is going to hurt my lego budget! too many cool sets!

I wonder if they will have hidden chests, instead of canisters to find?

These are pretty neat. Kinda reminds me of that other old pirate comic they made. Thanks for the scans! Off topic: Im SURE you didn't mean that literally. (Actually I'd really say you are pretty awesome!)

Although I am a newer member, and didnt know him so well personally, It is very sad to loose someone who has been behind much of the fun here on classic-pirates. I hope his family is alright, and Ill pray for them.

What if you move the wall, so its diagonal across the base? Then the lamps would fit inside, and we could still enjoy the awesome design. Great entries so far. I hope I can think of something as neat.

If your intent with this contest was to increase our pirate related knowledge and activities, you sir, have succeeded.

I am slightly confused, it shows the date of the post to be on the 22nd of april, 2007. but, there was the post about it on face-book from last Monday... may seem odd, but this IS a current contest? ...and its some weird glitch on the forums? (this post was made on the 12th of January)

Welcome legaser! I think the closest store is in Portland Oregon. If you dont mind the drive... Its 8 hours from where I live...
