Welcome Darthperson8 !! Do you have some pictures of your MOC from the Harry Potter building contest?

Holy cow! This is just fan-megablocking-tastic!!! This is most certainly worth the front page of Classic Pirates. But maybe it is better to wait until the new contest has been headlined. Too much great pirate news... what a luxury. Great find Cap'n !! EDIT: The creator is a member on CC, but he hasn't posted there since 2003. I'll leave him a PM anyway.

Always good to see someone coming out of the Dark Ages. Welcome here Bryan!

Welcome here Escape The Fate! Hope you find a lot of news and have fun.

Thanks for making this review. I enjoy watching your progress pictures.

I like the shape and look of this Jury fighter. Awesome how you made the front of the ship. And I love interiors. The details you added (table, bed) give it the finishing touch. I agree with the idea of SW4J for a retractable landing gear. Blue is an unusual color for a ship like this but it seems to work here.

Wow, this is a great firetruck! And it has real water... did you invent that system yourself or was something like that already done in a Lego set? I'm not a city expert, that's why I ask. Anyway great work and good pictures. And I love the action picture. Maybe next time you can ask someone to do the water pumping while you take the pics :-D

Good idea... keep the competition guessing ;-)

I discovered the comic before I saw this post because I was browsing that silly site of yours :-P It has a nice story and is very amusing (like all your comics!). How come you get this set so early?

Welcome here Toa Korkoa!! Have fun...

Neil Young - Harvest Moon. Great song to wake up with...

I'm just interested to see what kind of discussions they are having on that board. These guys are also doing ship-building like we do, they just use other materials. But I didn't have enough time yet to explorer their board and honor them with my participation :-D

Nice theory, but I just didn't hit the "n" hard enough on my keyboard ;-) Wow, that's quite a lot. They are all at maximum or are you using a dimmer to reduce the back light?

Welcome dragonator! I hope you have a good time here.

Hey, I'm also building my own house, but I'm not selling any Lego to finance it. Why is this set still MISB? You have several and kept one in the box?

Hick, can you tell me how strong (in Watts) those 3 white lights are? The Key Light, Fill Light, and Back Light. I'm planning to make something like you did in our basement because I'm always struggling with the light while photographing Lego. And I'm planning to make some reviews...

I would have guessed it had 3 midsections... That's good because I only have 2 midsections myself :-) In Amsterdam? 8-|

Let me start by saying that I like this ship a lot. It's awesome. It is one of the best ships of this size that I've seen. The details are amazing. Especially the stern looks great! I have plans to make a ship on these hulls pieces myself and I will need to borrow some of your ideas. Does this one have 3 mid-sections? Now that's said, there are 3 things I would change... 1. I would replace those grey things (are they called crow nests?) in the mast by black ones. 2. Make the small red line yellow. 3. Changes those things in the front (what are they called?) into yellow. Now there are a bit too much different colors IMO. Here is a rough preview with some of these changes:

Happy birthday Ruben !!

Lovely review Hinckley *wub* It looks a bit like a family reunion :-D Now I want 100 of those dwarf helmets with the wings (the best part of this set).

That would bring our number of missing sails down by 50%. We're all counting on you Mr. Tiber ;-)

Hehe... you did win the Dead Men Tell No Tales contest some time ago. And you've made some awesome piratical MOCs. You've earned it!

I'm a member of that site... but I still have to make my first post. My account was only a few days ago activated by their admin.

We are almost there... Only 6 to go and this index is complete. Does anyone have one of these missing ones who also owns a scanner? These are the sails that are still missing: Captain Kragg's Pirate Boat (7072): Rock Island Refuge (6273): Imperial Flagship (6271): Captain Redbeard's Pirate Ship (7075): Skull's Eye Schooner (6268- 6286):

Welcome Buckshot!
