Wouldnt it be easier to use the ready hullpieces instead of trying to make one out from bricks? Otherly than that i dont have anything else to say, i wait for more updates and gonna say then what i think. Captain Becker

It seems to be very white ship. I like it a lot so far, i hope that you could upload some LDD screenshotss for the Flick also. And if possible LXF-file would be nice as i tend to take a close look of it by myself and just have fun whit it. I wish you the best of luck whit this ship. Captain Becker

Bluecoats? Are you sure you dont mean Redcoats? (Flag for example) Anyway, fantastic job whit thiis ship, i love the plain and simple cabin. I only think that the gundeck should be open. (If you know what i mean) Captain Becker

Im in awe captain, those are incredile! Especially love the to sloops, they happen to be my favorite ship type. Aye, thatll be Superbe. Perfectionist's 80 gun Ship-of-the-line in minifig scale (1:52) Currently the project is frozen, or atleast so i have understood. Captain Becker

Heres some helpfull tutorials to help you and get you going. Captain Becker EDIT: Tiny error on typing.

Relax, was just joking, but i dont understand why such a little thing really cares, when the overall look is just amazing. And atleast i tryed. Captain Becker

Does that really even care? It looks awesome eitherway. But if you dont want it, you can send it to me! Im more than happy to take it. Captain Becker ESIT: Tiny typing error.

Speechless. ´Just absolutly no words to describe this beaty of art. Captain Becker

The title says it all! Ice hockey training in Finland. Captain Becker

Just saw the movie, cant stop crying, and listening the end music at the moment. Captain Becker

Just saw Galdiator movie, so sad ending that i cant hlp myself and cant sop crying..... Captain Becker

Ok, i dont like that you added more colours on it. Now it looks much like disaster. The orginal set was great looking IMO. If we dont count that ugly figurhead. So i like yours much better. But really, dont add anymore colours than the orginal set had. Captain Becker

I wish that we could get some printings from new POTC Sets. For example: London escape, the hat and the torso printing from King Georges Officer. My link And Captain Barbossa's hat and torso printing from Fountain of Yoth set: My link Thats all for now. Captain Becker

Incredible is all i can say at the moment. Captain Becker

The best swivel gun esing so far! And the most realistic if i may say so. What piece did you use at the barrels end? Captain Becker

They dont exist in LDD, you have to make them by yourself. Captain Becker

Captain Becker

What about the torsos from the new upcoming Set from Lord of the Rings then? Would that be a good for Islanders? Clickity click! Captain Becker

I think that he thinks that if he yells at us, he gets his theme.... I agree whit Hive, even that the idea is good, its never gonna happen. Captain Becker

I managed to fit the cannon on the boat, so heres my V2. Gallant and brave an a little crazy Captain of the boat/Ship. (Need to be crazy to set sail one of these in a battle) Click Overall sight. Click Inside of the boat/Ship. Click And i fillep up my old version, if you want to see, click the link below. Click So there you are. Captain Becker

The most realistic Pirate Town what ive seen so far! I dont even have word to describe this MOC. But theres slight thig wich stads out a it: The fort dosent quite look like it would fit the rest of the MOC. But that my though. Overall: Im stunned, most excellent work there mate!

This is such a massive project that i may not be a great help, but ill try to do my best here. QUESTIONS: - How deep should I make the water? The "deeper" it is so to speak, the more flexibility I have with objects such as sharks and the ship "emerging" from the water. But it adds a significant cost considering there are over 18,000 studs on the base level. My current plan was to only have nothing under the water but the base plate to save cost, but thinking I should had one level of plates. A:Since the MOC is such big, id recommen you to make the water max 2 plates thick. Or just stay on one layer. - Will this scenario be too crowded? Hard to tell before I scan them, but from my drafts, it looks like it will be a tad crowded with the 3 ships and the mid water shipwreck. The beach in the upper corner won't take up more then 1.5x of the 32x32 base plate. The rocky shore on the opposite edge takes up 6x 32x32 base plates, 7x with the shipwreck. The other shipwreck is one 32x32. 9.5 of the 32x32 still leaves 8.5 32x32 for the water and the ships, which seems like it is cutting it close. I could move the shipwreck to share a base plate with the Northeast island. A: Again a hard choise, you told that there would be three ships on the water, i think you could reduce the number to two or just make one big ship, and a longoat for landing. Actual minifigs are also how you want to do. - With the above in mind, would it be weird to do a cross section of a ship at the edge of the water? Like have only half a ship present in the "scene"? Or maybe on the edge, cut cross wise? My work has a machine shop so I can cut the hulls in half if need be. Worried that will spoil the overall feel or kill that entire angle of view, and one edge will already be cut off from view. However, it would give a detailed view inside the ship and might be cool (I've seen some done this way and I'm mixed). A: Dont cut the actuall Lego pieces! Is say take a look at this thread and try to use this technique, wich i find great for shipwercks. Click here! - Am I going over the top with the trans blue pieces of the ocean, rather then doing SNOT with solid colors? I really like the realism of the trans blue and when done right, it seems cool, but...I'm open to advice. A: Well, if you dont have any problems whit money, id say stay whit the orginal plan here. SNOT is also a good choise, but as you sayed, if you want to go realistic, it dosent look right. - Anything else? A: I dont say no more efore i see the actual work in progress, as its for me easier to give advices when i see the actual thing coming together. Hope i had even some help. Captain Becker

Im not a shipmaster or anything ut i say what i think of Her. First off, i think the oler version looks better, and i know many of you may disagree whit me, but i think the gunports are a bit too close to the water line at the moment. Ill wait for further updates. Captain Becker
