I'm sure you'll do a great job ;-) ! Once again, good luck! Mr Tiber

That's loveley... The sails turn out great, and the cabin is really much and much better than the previous version. The lenght is fine to me, I think it looks good the way it is, no need for tumblehome! How much guns can it have? Mr Tiber

Well, they guy on the tower has red eppaulettes, and the guy on top of the jail also has them... Mr Tiber

Very happy birthday to you!

That would be a shame, but you decide! Would that Black Pearl be equal in size to the Dame Du loup. And what I wonder is, why would you destroy a white ship if you want to build a Black ship? Mr Tiber

I'd love to hear the results of those experiments! Please tell me. Is there anyone here who tried modifying his muskets ot pistols?? I'm quite a purist so I probably wouldn't dare to. Mr Tiber

They probably don't teach you Dutch, do they? :-( The drunk cake was insulted by your proposition, can't food cats(specie in this case)(that sentence is no proper Dutch and it can't be translated to proper English) The cake wishes to be destroyed on top of your fine linen pillow in ten secons. Then you for the shopping en please return fast... Where do you get those crazy ideas! :-P Mr Tiber

What the hell?!? The cake went drunk, and would love to sleep on the fine linen pillow where it can drool, eat your cats....Why would a drunken cake eat cats....

I see... Alchoholic pastry?? X-D Although I don't see why you would say that...

Err, okay: With everyone eight (!?), The ambassador is on lunch break and will do another deed for you.. (I asume!) I shall also translate this: By the cake this awe-inspiring... !?!??! And what did you try to say then? :-D

Wow, that doesn't make any sense at all... Can you please say that in proper English?? :-D

Oh, those translation systems make me laugh out loud!!! :-D :-D :-D LOL!!! Mr Tiber Ik lach me dood!

Waarom per se stomme dingen zeggen?? X-D or, why should we say stupid things?? lol... (that's also a Dutch word! it means fun...) You should add this to the first post: Jullie hebben me gehoord mensen, praat in een vreemde taal! (Dutch)

You must have been blessed... By God himself! God Bless! :-D Mr Tiber

Our member Bonaparte proved his love and dedication towards the Pirate forums and therefore he recently became a Pirate Moderator!! Wish him luck! *y* Good luck! Mr Tiber

16 pounds for that mint set and a board game?! You lucky dog!! Mr Tiber

Thanks for the advice! I shall do that! LOL. No mate, I live on a ship! Mr Tiber

,

Indeed I do! I decided to use the Flying Dutchman plan because it look a bit more organized... Here it is: Click to view the pic. Yes I know that, but you might noticed, after the first subject(I wrote:"to start with") there's "The stern" And when I second there's: invert sloping. And after third, I wanted to say something, but: (I don't know how to say that in English) Capiche? It was about the sides of a ship being rounded... Mr Tiber

This is strange.... If he is trying to attract buyers by saying his son died, he is SICK! If it is true, well, I wouldn't sell his LEGO because I'd keep them some kind of memory.. I don't know alot about exo force, so may I ask, Is this really rare??

I'll be there! ;-) Pity about the administrator... Mr Tiber

It certainly would! Picture added! ;-) What a nice little MOC this is!

It's a miracle!!! :-P :-D Well, those parents certainly aren't Afols... But I hope the fact these got awards doesn't stop LEGO from eventually make a new and better pirate line... Mr Tiber

I wouldn't say they are <insert that tiresome argument>. But I do like to say something about how useful they are. You see, the hull pieces lego gives us, are perfectly fine to build smaller ships, like my ship, the Red Peril. But it get's thougher and thougher if you make bigger ships. I'm already having problems with my ship the Acheron. The mid pieces aren't such a big problem, since you can make them wider with invert slopes. You can't do that with bow and stern sections. Those are the problem if you ask me. Another problem is the historic accuracy. To start with: The stern, you can "widen" it with plates, in order to get more windows on it. But it's damn diffucult to get more than 4 windows on it without making it look extremely wide. The problem with historic accuracy is, most frigates (like they are build on 5-6 mid sections in LEGO) usually had more windows than 4 (mostly 6). Second: Invert sloping. first, look at this pic: Click here to view the picture!( I know It's big but I think that might be necessary) At the right, you can see when the waterline starts. that's before it starts sloping down. You always have the sloping on LEGO Prefab hulls. On the other hand, The LEGO ships that go straight down without sloping look a bit blocky to me. Third: (don't know how to say that in English) In the same pic as above, you can also see the ship from the top. There you can see it's not completly straight. LEGO Prefab hulls force you to make the ship completly straight.(Note: The Flying Dutchman is probably a fluyt. Those tend to get very thin at the stern) Fourth: Broadness. That has been mentioned before in this thread... Mr Tiber
