Tordenskjold

sorry but i havent any more pictures of that building. apart from what is on my brickshelf . it is going to be a lokal inn for the pirates. i went home yesterday and took some pictures then. but not of the inn alone im afraid. its 120km one way for me to get home so its some distance. but ill maybe go home tomorrow again. forgot something at home. ill try to take more pictures then. Thanks mr Phes. its good to hear

Thanks. i knew that. but thanks anyway. im new to this forum and still trying to getthings right :-$

Hi everyone. first. the Reef is more of a working title of the whole MOC. havent found a proper name for it yet. sorry if that confused anyone. have placed more to the island now. can see it Here and other pictures too from the moc. have a sort of plan for it now. want to build some more small islands like the smaller oned on this picture and alast, make a reef surround it with only narrow openings that ships can sail in to the lagoon by. and in one end of the lagoon this Moc is placed.. just have to get what extra LEGO i need first. is it the black fortress you mean? the one with soldiers? I didnt load up a new picture Phes. only a smaller version of the same picture.

Great movie. and the music too :) what kind of camera can be used for this? a normal Digital cam or do we have to use special cameras?

The Reef in extence. and i have no plans of detroying it. or i could if i see a better way to buildt the moc. Im sorry but i have very few pictures of the island. and im away at work now. wont be at home for about three weeks. at my pc i have only one more picture of the island. I've made a model of what i was thinkingof whit the small huts buildt from whatever found on the beach. i think it will look good with these kind of buildings sortet out on different small islands surrounding the large one. The red 2x2 would be a bonfire and the white thing a palmtree, The hut made in a rough way. not all bricks are perfect size or shape, to resemble that they use what they find. The Viking series look ok to me. but it look more like the Hollywood style Viking than the viking i've been tought of. The Norsemen was fiersome warriors and exellent sailors, and the got the viking axe with, thats good. but all the monsters.. Fenrisulven(Fenriswolf ) didnt live in the Viking world kalled Midgard. it lived in

The Pirate island is as Captain Ironhook said, a sort of extended forbidden island. I had to use some parts from the forbidden island set in another set and found that i could use some extra baseplates and parts to create a sort of hideout for my pirates. the palmtree is a seapalm :-D , actually its just been placed so i could see what more i could do with trees there. The island, wich i called The Reef is tha main hideout for Pirates in this part of the Caribean part of the world. but i have plans to buildt it out with several small houses/huts placed on baseplates as those on the picture. to the end it would be like a area with a lot of small islands with narrow straits between them. bigger ships than rowboats cant sail in between them, so it is a good area to hide from Royal Navy. my problem is that everything i try to include in the Reef moc look to weird to me.i dont get the buildings i want, something wrong with the shape of it. If anyone have a idea of how i can build small huts for my pirates im grateful if you cn share that idea with me. As i see it,the pirates cant go to a lokal shop and buy things so their huts and houses are buildt of whatever they find on the beches and of old shipwrecks and so on. Tordenskjold was one of our biggest sea heroes. and of course it sound viking like . I am a Viking. living in northern part of Norway :biggrin: Bj
