Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn

Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl is AWESOME. Pirates 2: Dead Mans Chest is somewhat less... Its like they were trying too hard to make it like the first, and completely overshot. Needless to say, the coolest thing about it IMHO is the way the Flying Dutchman and her crew LOOKS.

Clay iz vor de veak - Buy Greenstuff from Games Workshop ;) Its a modeling putty usually used to remodel stuff on miniatures, but you can sculpt your own miniatures entirely from scratch with it. Its really great - view it here.

If someone made minifigures of Davy Jones and his crew, following the same torso/head priniple as the Chewbacca minifig, would you buy them?

A step in the right direction because, well, its a CASTLE. Not like the big 100 buck calstes we've have the past few years that are just HORRIBLE - Undefendable walls, no back, etc. But its not as good as classic because it lacks the BULK it should have. The walls are simple in construction, and thats all there is. No barracks yard inside or anything - Just walls and towers. So aye.

Yup, just as I thought. Replace that idiotic squid launcher with another tentacle, give him some claws in place of those swords, and you've got yourself a half-descent Rahi.

Awesome! Well, despite Bionicle 2007 sucking, the System and Technic sets are looking up! It almost looks like those old 1995 Technicers! No more duplo peices - w00t!

I am Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn, with my name recently changed from Lord Admiral Helden Ravensburg. I did this to make it a lil more unique. Because thats how I roll.

Little adaption and it'd make a half-descent Rahi. It honestly looks like how the Barraki should have looked to be even remotely good sets.

Egad! Could it be Bonesii under another name...?!

"So good a plot device, he used it twice" *sigh* Greg and his magical plot-device Zamors... Wonder if we get magical squiddlies this year, too...?

Yarr, a little converting and it might make a good Pirate hideout.

Indeed! :P Well, seeing as its built out of just KK parts... GOOD JORB! With just such limited bricks you've done a brilliant job of making a medival steam locomotive that presumably doesnt run on rails :) Me likey!

HAH! NINJA EDITION! RIGHT ON! Wait... No! Im a Pirate! Not a Ninja! Its a... um... ITS A MR PHES EDITION!

An overall shot of the ship so far. My collection currently lacks any white or blue flaps for the gunports, so those will have to stay open until I can bricklink some. Same goes for those hideous green railings - They need to be red. A detail shot of the double doors leading into the faux cabin and the rather ornate ships wheel A look at the quarterdeck without the mast. Note the ladders and steps leading up to the quarterdeck. A side shot of her stern, quarterdeck, and wheel. The somewhat-ornate stern. Note the volvo in the background painted up like a swedish flag ;) Snootch, one of my outdoor cats, appears displeased at... the cinder block..?! Comments? Critque? Suggestions? X-D

That looks like something I built with my friends Carribean Clipper when I was like... 6 I think...

Ah, but would his ghost come back to represent him in court? :P

Wait, what?

Aye, I'm with Mr. Tiber on that :) Very nice, though! I once tried building a two-decker and failed miserably, so I know how complex the construction is. Very well done, all around!

*Resists... shooting.... the lawyer....*

Niiice! Stylin shirt! I approve :)

Well, I origionally settled on "12"... it was a good number for the size of the ship, and 12 is my favorite number... But then I found my French Infantryman and wanted to use him too... but I think I may end up cutting him back out again, just to keep the number even.

Ah, yes, easy to understand. "See this guy? He's bad guy. See this guy? He's good guy. They fight fight fight. and then they... uh... they fight. Some more." :-|

Err... 13. Thats her current complement. Speaking of which, I just finished the quarterdeck... ill take pictures and post 'em tommorow!
