  1. You've made a masterpiece this time Cap'n. I *wub* this fortress. Great colors, details, overall looks. This picture would look good on the headlines of www.classic-pirates.com. Don't ya think Mr. Phes?
  2. *wub* *wub* *wub* Great scene, I just love this ! I've been at Hougoumont several times when we have our annual trip to the Waterloo battlefield. It is still in great shape like many buildings that played a part in the battle of Waterloo (La Haye Sainte, La Belle Alliance). This thread contains several pictures of Hougoumont which I took this summer during my visit.
  3. :-D Why not, whatever gets the job done. And I just love dangerous experiments! *skull*
  4. I like it. It's mysterious indeed. And I like the way the sword is coming out of the picture. That's a cool effect. There is only one thing I find strange. The sun is behind the minifig, but still the sword gives a shade on the head...
  5. Your room has an incredible view! I just love to see pictures of hobby rooms from our members. Seems like Sinner wants to be a reporter himself, he just keeps interviewing IS :-D Btw, why don't you have an avatar anymore IS?
  6. Moved to community because the "Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds" forum is for Lego.
  7. I should have studied chemistry :-D Do you think this will make the Lego white?
  8. Simply Red - For your babies
  9. Now the link works, but I only see part of your face 8-|
  10. A lot of birthdays to celebrate today! Happy Birthday !!!
  11. Since I'm sorting all my bricks, I discovered a lot of my original white bricks are yellowed. There's a thread discussing de-yellowing using bleach and one using Hydrogen Peroxide. However, for my experiment I'm using chloor (NatriumHypochloriet) with is a strong anti-oxidant. And since yellowing of Lego is caused by oxidization (photodegradation) of the plastic, this seems like a useful experiment to do. --> Try this at your own risk! NatriumHypochloriet is a dangerous product !!! This experiment started today (18/11 - 4pm): Two very yellowed wings from my old airplane will be used One goes into the chloor, the other stays out and will be use to compare afterwards. I'll post updates with the result. Day 2 (after 24 hours): I switched to another fluid after 4 hours because I was uncertain what effect the NatriumHypochloriet would have on the Lego. I'll try again later with NatriumHypochloriet on a less important part than my airplane wings. Now I'm using this: :-D And here is a first result after 24 hours of de-yellowing: This is going in the right direction! Day 19: This is certainly taking a long time. Here's an update after 19 days.
  12. That link isn't working for me...
  13. I've moved this one from Community to the Pirate forum. Also added some picture in the first post because eBay actions don't stay online forever. I'll probably merge this one in the future with this thread: Fake Lego pirates:general discussion. This ship certainly looks good. But since it isn't from Lego I won't buy something like this.
  14. Welcome at Eurobricks Alexander.
  15. Here a direct link to the splash page of that Bricklink shop.
  16. Each Bricklink shop has a "Splash Page". Here you normally find all this practical info. If the info is not there, you can always sent an email to the owner of the shop. I often do that for shipping prices when I buy a big/heavy box.
  17. You look a bit like John Lennon....
  18. This is the place for requesting a decal. Anyone who wants can respond to a request and take the challenge of creating the decal. However, there is no guarantee that your decal will be created once you made a request in this thread. Some rules: - Only make decal requests in this thead! - This thread is only for requests and replies when you agree to create a decal. - Several people can respond to the same request. - Only the creator has the right to sell his decal (on eBay, Bricklink, ...). - Decals must be credited to it's creator when posted in pictures. - Posting some pictures of the applied decal will be appreciated by the creator. Please don't waste anyones time, ONLY request a decal if you plan to print and apply it to a minifig !!!
  19. Sorry, I don't think of guys in that way... But I'll ask my girlfriend if she thinks you are cute and let you know *sweet*
  20. I have all the ships from the pirate theme except one (the armada flagship). That ship is on top of my to-buy list. But I don't have a picture and some ships are not constructed at this moment. You have a dirty mind :-D
  21. Great, when can you come? :-P I first need to get all my bricks sorted, but also here you are welcome to help. We can have a Lego sorting competition :-D Aha, the tunnel... I've been there a few times. You still don't look hairy in this picture X-D
  22. Das Pop - You
  23. Happy Birthday!!! I hope you get this beauty
