  1. I know. It's always difficult to bring your product to the customer. The need is not to high at the moment... Thats a pity. I think the problem in your case is, that there are too less guys, who rebrick these old ships. The one will buy a set. The other will put the idea out of mind of paying 200+ for a ship out of parts. I'm quite interested how LEGO is doing their double sided prints on cloth. Maybe i'll find something in the far wides of the net. I considered to paint cloth with colour by hands. But I think it will not look as good and straight (lines) as printed. And its really hard to find cloth coulour which is painting very thin. Edit: After a quick research. It does not make sence to do flags by yourself because there is already a complete arsenal of printed flags in the modelmaking area. There are many professional vendors who offer printed flags in different sizes and types from many countries. And it is much more affordable than to do it yourself.
  2. Nice built matey. Loved it form first day. Never saw a timber scaffolding inside a house.
  3. Who did also expect a dinosaur when he clicked on the topic? Thanks for the free pdf instruction supplement. A rebrickable entry would be nice though Now realised it is a one year old topic.
  4. I saw your flickr ranghaal. Your are a very talented guy. I will use some ideas from you for the future :P Did you build the tower on the famous "The Wood Tryptichon" Picture?

    I think Ideas is for now only accepting entries with a maximum piece count of 2000. Wow Sebeus. This is truly amazin work. Im am also building on my 13k-piece-ship. But to buy the parts is so time and money consuming. Have to lay aside money and pull in one's belt before I can go in. This will cost me at least 1500€. Thank you! with this part your are using in your ship you gave me THE Idea to make the masts of my ship looking thicker and beeing more stable.
  6. Here some Ideas for Drums: 1.) 2.) http://forums.saber-scorpion.com/index.php?showtopic=3715 3.)
  7. Yeah they did! And I think they mixed the look of their minifig army on purpose. TLG is not a big fan of political and historical attribution.
  8. Yes. BTW I have an unofficial LEGO Cataogue at home of all Sets from the Beginning in 1949 until 2011 (was printed in 2011). When I first saw all Sets in this "glory years" from 1985-1998 I was really surprised to be honest that there were so much small Sets. They only had a few sets above 500 pcs. It was really surprising because up to this point I said. "Stop this glut of small useless sets." But I had to be disabused and I recognised that I came to a decision too fast. I thought only big sets are good sets because you have something in your hands. But to look from now into the past (I would of course buy the taller sets) but also the small ones do appeal to me more and more. And they are a great opportunity to just get minifigs and to make a little child happy. And I think this is more important because most of the time the kids are not able to receive a taller lego set as a gift.

    Wow. All this mason bricks. Nice build! I like this big barrels. Do the tiles hold on a track going around the barrel?
  10. Yes. I wish lego would bring more of such small 10-20€ sets which are useful.
  11. It's a very nice build. I really like Green Lantern and Harley Quinn.
  12. Robin_IV replied to Pioupiou's post in a topic in Pirate MOCs
    Hey! Beatiful. Keep up that good work I love the view from above with the different colours under the water tiles.
  13. Hey. Really nice work. Is it also possible to print both sides? I have a need of large Flags something like this US Flag on the stern in case of size. But the historical versions of the royal navy and pirate flags of course :D Would definitely be a better seller than sales because they can be used for more things like forts, isles and different mocs. also maybe it is easier for you to just print the cloth with e.g. more flags side by side and the customer cuts out what he needs. Would be easier and cheaper. The biggest problem for me is to get good printed cloth. The cutting is easier. (Of course not of rounded stuff but flags are square)
  14. I had no chance to get one of the very old sets and the 2009-2015 wave was perfectly placed in my dark age. -.- I really hope to get hands on new pirate sets if they are coming. maybe one day they will become a legend too :P
  15. Hey. Welcome to Eurobricks! This is a really nice video. Honestly didn't expect that. I am looking forward for new Episodes. I like this pleasant quiet style of video without all this fuzz and annoying music. I also really hope TLG will release this Summer 2019 Pirates sets which they tried to do their best and not only copies of 2015. Then I would buy all sets of one theme ever for first time. They have to celebrate this Anniversary. So let's hope.
  16. I'm a huge fan of the Roman Empire and I never saw something like this. You have my recognition. Well done!
  17. Wow. Wanna have this minifigs *-* Great castle. Nice touch for the water. It is implied but not too overdone. You seem to be good in building castle things.
  18. Robin_IV replied to pantelis's post in a topic in LEGO Historic Themes
    Nice build. Better than the Lego version imao. I think the curved slope leading to the gate could be more implied. But this is nitpicking. Ignore it. :)
  19. Robin_IV replied to Bob De Quatre's post in a topic in Pirate MOCs
    Great fort. I like the colour scheme overall. I especially love the roof and the ride. Where was this display presented?
  20. Wow. This is beautiful work. Nice roofs and walls. The houses look very good!
  21. Nice. wanna see that moc. What is this for a torso/leg print of the man?
  22. My wishlist: Mos Eisley Cantina (Now with a halfround bar instead of a quarter circle!)
  23. Yes. Lego must bring back the classic themes. Pirates have to come next year due to the anniversary (they just have to) and Knights should also get an update also not only on new sets but on new ideas and designs in set design and not always the same over and over again. I don't understand why they refuse to honor something which made them so popular two decades ago. Ninjago is -speaking at itself- a popular and high quality theme which hit the mark. This creativity which were put and still is put in these sets should be transfered to other themes except for what the individual likes of the Ninjago theme. And well know that lego is able to produce something HQ. Coming back to topic: This creativity I wish to see in a new LOTR Theme. I understand that there has to be set pricepoints and that there can't be all sets for over 100$. But come on. Nobody can tell me that to release 12 sets in total for such a huge story like Lord of the Rings (with 3 Movies) is enough. Look at StarWars. And these were 6 movies (with now the new ones). LOTR deserves imo much more than a 13, 13, 20, 30, 30, 40, 60, 60, 80, 100, 130, 200 dollar theme. There is some room for improvement. I know I maybe want to much but I just wish it. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/13/arts/television/lord-of-the-rings-series-amazon.html https://www.thesouthafrican.com/lord-of-the-rings-tv-series-release-date-budget/
  24. Wow. Beautiful scene. I really like your ship. Always be attracted from ships. Also nice desicion to only make a gatehouse which is nice and very detailed. a castle in this size is quite brick-consuming. But could have get maybe a bit of wall extension left and right imao :D
  25. Ok. Thanks. Maybe I will find this scenes on YT Yes. Exactly. I also heard this from other people who did text reviews that they were confused about the decision over this set. I think its not bad at all. We have too less ships in TLW but for LOTR there could be done so much more. Maybe TLG was annoyed with licensing or something like this. If they would make an update on this theme they have definitely much material to choose from...
