blackdeathgr Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 The shipwrecked twins (from 70409 x2) decided it was about time to stop being targets for the imperials' amusement and their cannons. So they broke free from the island, by scraping a small boat off some shipwreck pieces (and some foraging inside some small shoe boxes). Which version do you like (bow-wise)??

BrickOn Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I am going to go with number two... Nice and neat boat, I like it :-) Quote
blackdeathgr Posted September 9, 2015 Author Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys, i will do some minor rigging and add a sail later just to see how it looks like. I like to work on a low count of bricks (forced too though). It enhances creativity for me :P This design, more simplified, is a possible candidate for life boats on bigger ships too i think.

Kolonialbeamter Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Neat! It's bow number one for me. Quote
Captain Dee Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 That's a very nice little boat, and I prefer the first version of the bow. Perhaps the twins are smuggling rum in the barrel... Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Really nice little ship. I prefer the first version of the bow too. Quote
Staslegomaster Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 It seems your purpose was to make the boat as small as possible, so you even "put" veeeery little water under it. Economy? Quote

I prefer to think they have some herring in there. Eat then drink rule applies here as well :P It seems your purpose was to make the boat as small as possible, so you even "put" veeeery little water under it. Economy? Sadly it is called lack of bricks :P But this MOC is destined for study and training so no more water was needed Quote
Staslegomaster Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 The boat is really nice. As for the "lack of bricks" it's not a big problem if there is no "lack of money" to visit the neares LEGO shop. Good luck. Quote
bananaworld Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Excellent economy of bricks. Nice. The shape puts me in mide of those ancient Egyptian (I think) boats made from bundles of reeds lashed together. Defo a getaway boat from a desert island! Quote
blackdeathgr Posted October 1, 2015 Author Posted October 1, 2015 Hehe, thanks guys. Those curved bricks always get my imagination going, although they are not easily used. Think circular! Quote
