  1. ok, i misunderstood, so all credits to patrice on fb xD i would say, to be honest, as Barney Stinson in how i met your mother used to say "new is always better" so, besides the points i mentioned, i also came across 3 more points: 4) the canon wheels are not available in reddish brown as in the instruction given 5) the black arch piece 1x6 in the bow is nowadays only in raised version, except u have a set frpm 2009 or 2010 like 6253... 6) you could maybe also use the space under the cabin to put a working rudder as in 6286 or a hidden treasure space as in 70413 + u could switch light bl. grey deck plated into dark tan as in modern lego pirate ships just minor things, but it stacks...u have to decide...original and old, or newer, more modern and all for most more fitting to your probably other pirate ships like bsb 2.0, potc ships, 70413, the upcoming creator pirate ship and so on....i built 6285 with modern parts, except hull, masts, rigging, steering wheel, anchor winch and canon wheels and sails. so i kept all the classic old brown pieces. i have to say it looks great, but you can feel it doesnt really fit to the other modern ships...i think switching the old brown to modern reddish brown pieces is cheaper and much more easy to get in good or perfect condition and fits better to all the rest modern pirate sets...
  2. what a pity u had no replies here so far. i had actually the same idea some years ago. i used the dark brown hull pieces instead and for the stern i also used a hull piece, so back and front have the same shape as in 4195, 10210 or 6243. i didnt like it too much xD now funny thing is, that this year, just 2 weeks before the reveal of the bsb 2.0 21322, i expected to get a pirate bay only, so i bought original sails and hull and masts of 6285, my all time favourite pirate ship, to have a ship next to the bay, too. ( facepalm ) then built the rest with new parts. i ended up with the same work arounds for the yellow arch bricks and yellow decoration bricks like you, also the same workaround for the storage hatches and cabin roof. long story short, i have three points to your version: 1) the brickbuilt stern is a problem, doesnt seem to fit very well to the overall style or shape of the ship 2) what kind of sails did u plan to use? old bsb, new bsb, customs? 3) the black modified bricks facet 3x3 in the bow have not been used for ages in that color so i wouldnt consider them as "new parts"... i am sorry if i sound to criticful, i like ur work very much and i appreciate ur efforts with the instructions!

    Hey, thanks for your posts. I know the picture quality is very bad. I am only lacking in know-how and equipment for professional photography. I try to find someone who takes care of a great photo-look for my next creations.

    Hi all, I made this piece about one year ago. I didnt show yet, i think, It is not ready, since i somehow lost my interest in finishing it - so i just post whats there. I give credits to kevblee's work, since i used his basis structure.

    lol, a little off-topic, but i really have to say it: @Sebeus - how often i now have already read of yours smth like this "nice ship, i just funished smth similar to yours" xD well, i really dont mean it in a bad way, it is just funny. to the moc - i would suggest at first another color sheme, it is very personal up to everybodys taste, but i especially like the color shemes that the pirates II series had and pirates of the carrebean sets and the ships 6274, 6285, 6271. i think u now have too many colors, especially in the cabin. also the masts should be a little higher.
  9. hey, ur complaint is reasonable - missing parts, broken parts, megablocks parts substitudes - no way! but: if its only those things mentioned and the rest is excellent as described u can be very lucky, because those things can be changed fast and easily, most important on those sets are parts and its condition that can be found in no other set or are very rare all in all. in the case of 6286 i think of the following: bow and stern parts, sails!, that one pirate with white torso, the green hatches, the white modified brick on top of the stern and maybe the white wdge plates + masts, all the rest parts can be substituted easily. so, complain about what was not correct but also feel lucky about the rest if really excellent
  10. i like the light and the new windows =) the rest could use some more modding work
  11. why dont u guys just buy on bricklink part by part in new/very good quality your beloved wanted ships? u will pay more than 100 or 150 dollars/euro. but in advantage u dont have to pay the full amount at once and u can be sure of the good quality of the bricks, buying on ebay in general i would not recommend.
  12. yes, and also, buy only used parts/sets if u can get some very close up pictures of the object - u never know what children did with the parts, used not only means they are old and might have brightened colors, it can have great colors, but the can have many scratches and so, physical damages, even new parts out of the box have but in used they may have even more. so try to ask for very close up pictures of the ship u want to buy
  13. i bought this model twice when it came out for 72 euros, there was a nice discount at toys r us and also sold one of the davy jones minifigs for 20 euros at bricklink xD. i bought it to make one bigger BP - to have a good basic start. i really like the black hulls - useful not only for black pirate ships, but also for frigates, most people moc them in colorshemes like the IF, which looks really nice but not really "real". i think most of the frigates looked like the hms surprise which has alot of black and yellow...to come back to topic - for a hundred bucks i would rather buy a qar- only if u really want to have a black pirate ship/frigate u should buy a black pearl model. the qar comes with more hull parts, canons, more (seldom) parts all in all...u can make any sip of it, sebeus for instance made an own nice qar or his spanish sloop of war which also seems to lack in canons filled in the ports (if ever possible? :P) but looks really really good =)
  14. @cervantes: i have to correct you. about the missing cannons, it is even worse. there are only 4 canon ports on the black pearl model, 2 on each side. u see 3 port on each side, but the 2 ones under the stairs connot be filled with canons because of lacking space, they are only dummy ports. also on the qar - u see 6 ports each side, only 4 each side can be filled with canons, 2 each side, the first and last are dummies... =) the missing canons are not the main problem - u can buy from bricklink or use from other sets u already own but even dummy ports - i hate it^^
  15. yeah, bricklink, SES set 6286, new, never opened - 850,00euros ,not even dollars =) em, u can get 8 QAR's for this amount of money...this is not sparta, this is madness...
