You are so consistently good. This one is my favorite of yours. All around excellent.

I was thinking about your excellent creation and I was wondering is this supposed to be a European Port or a Carribbean Port? Here is where I am going... My wife and I (congrats next month) were in St Thomas about a year ago. The buildings there were old and very different than those in Europe, I was actually a little surprised. In Europe it is the tudor buildings like you have so aptly made, brick on bottom and two color on top, etc (MMV style). They would have higher pitched roofs and were "darker" colored probably stain from long life, whatever. In St Thomas and other Carribbena place I have seen from pictures they have very colorful walls, there is ocassionally a brick building but they were mostly plastered over and painted bright. A lot had flat or low pitched roofs that typically ran the length of the building in spanish tile or somolar materials. Near the waterfront were all touristy stores now that had been warehouses back in the past. Here are some links i found of some of the structures. http://kimbriggs.com/photos/us-virgin-isla...alie-06-002.jpg http://www.coolest-travel-pictures.com/wp-...main-street.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/comm...t_Christian.JPG http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v462/STT.../Picture101.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/comm..._Riise_Mall.JPG If it is a Carribean Port have you or would you consider a village more like those in the carribean?

I like your half window on the side of the back of your ship. How did you accomplish that, i would like to use it.

This is awesome, so much time and it is still a remake of your old set up too. Man, the hours in this. It has been a hour just catching up to this thread. It is huge and incredible but here is my questions- Where is the dock going to be placed, all your pics of it are in some other place? What is the hole between the Fort and Cathedral? Is their water/boat access in that hole or is it underground/catacombs stuff? Will there be any pictures of the dock, seawall, houses/small buildings near the Fort and Cathedral like a dress rehearsal of sorts? I have seen lots of components but not much all together, I would like to see that. This is so amazing, the size of the Fort and Cathedral are awe inspiring. PS Did you get married, you stopped foreshadowing the Maiden next to you a few months ago?

Your use of Dooku torso is a great choice, and the whole thing looks terrific.

I love the upside down brown tile roof it looks really good. The windows on the green building are nice, as are the dark green legs you used for detail. Those elves of yours will have fun taking all those 1x1s off after you are done with this one.

I say 1930s but on a Parrallel Earth. Some technology is better some is worse, you know like the show Fringe.

The assassin is a great combo of parts. He looks real good(or bad). Cool stuff.

This is in my top 3 things I have ever seen with LEGO. You took one of the biggest and best LEGO models and made it incredibly better. Your interior is so amazingly cool. I too would love to see many more pictures. It looks like you have many hallways and rooms and I bet even a refresher in their. You need to call NASA and let them know how your sub-light engines "work" you could a make a fortune Kidding aside this is really cool.

i have Crownies, Black Falcons, Lion Knights all autonomous and sometimes allies and sometimes enemies. Trolls/orcs and undead always antagonistic to the humans. Dwarves are off doing there own thing underground.

This is terrific. Very nice and useful additions. I might try something like this myself. It is a great mix to two great sets.

Are they going to Oregon or Akator? Kidding, but you have a great covered wagon. Nicely done, and great use of the (cows) oxen.

It is a greta looking building but I do not know if LEGO would do a blind man. Your's does look excellent though. He is the only thing that would make me doubt it as a set. Very cool though.

The aliens all look real good. Love the bent Battle Droid arm!

Nice, the cape and skirt are terrific. I think you mean Sorceress, unless she is the source of something. Very cool work.

Wow, not bad, no Jasmine? Those look like you put a lot into them. You are a great and diverse customizer.

This is really good. A base of operations they sorely needed. You should have some business suit guy be their boss who tells them to do stuff they hate and then they always do it there own way and do it better. Anyway, I hope the Evil hencement never find it.

the black thing is a tree.

tons of details, nicely packed.

the rest of the folder tomorrow http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=418160

The Burrows look terrific. I love it, nicely done.

The whole MOC is incredible, but i really really love the Jukebox and Fooseball table and the extra shots of them impress me even more. Super cool.

100th post. It was actually very simple. Take the old male hair piece, roll up some putty like a snake and wrap it around the sides to make the curels(my brain will not spell it right now). Add some more in the back, someone mentioned braided, so pony tail or braids. Let it dry and paint it. I could have sanded mine a little more but the pictures end up so much larger than the real thing the scratches are hard to see on actual piece. Vualla.

You captured her very well. Maybe The Agents bad guy hair could have also worked but this looks terrific.

Yeah the cloth roof was a little iffy, nice mod.
