The Monezterrel shipyards have been busy again - and they still are. To help out our expanding cargo needs, we have decided to order a Barque (and some more ships, but those aren't done just jet). It has the capacity to carry 14 guns and a lot more space for cargo. But let's keep this short for once - you just wanna see what it looks like, don't ya? _______________ Wow, this one took a while. Not because it was difficult, instead because I'm in the middle of exams and have 2 more ships in WIP. Don't ask how I have connected the sails, its magic (they fall off if you breathe). First, before anyone notices: This ship is heavily (!) inspired by the Christine, a Barquentine, by Sebeus I. As I like to try out different techniques for building ships I had to try out his technique too - and why not on a ship of the supposedly perfect length of 4 midsections? Off course I made quite some changes - the stern, which I originally wasn't too excited about, has been done very differently, and the masts, which were just the standard ones, were done completely different. So, let's just see the pictures: So many sails. 21 sails total on this ship, luckily the 10 square sails could be rolled up. A bit more detailed view of this side - as usual on my ships a lot is going on. Btw, as this is a ship inspired by Sebeus the Capstan had to work - what else:D Picture of the side of the bow. As you can see there aren't many places to hide on a ship this size - you have to get creative then. Picture of the stern, with the rowboat hung up. That shark was irritating as it kept rotating the whole time. And a last one, the rowboat is in the water and the shark has rotated a bit further. Imagine a the name Esmeralda on that dark tan tile. This Barque will be licensed as a class 5T; it is commanded by Captain Hector Ordoneź.

What happens when some of the best builders in the world decide to build a fregate together? I asked myself this question 6 months ago as I wanted to do something original for the BELUG (Belgian Lego User Group) Clubday in September. Why not a workshop on "how to make a fregate"? As Belug has some legendary shipbuilders in it rangs (CGH, Sebeus, Bonaparte and maybe one day I may say myself), this should not be that difficult... Well, it is... As I had to order all parts from scratch (requested by Belug), it was a difficult task as every ship is different. It is nearly impossible to say in advance how many bricks you need and what type of bricks you need... Anyway, a succesfull clubday and a few additional meetings later (with the necessary food and beer), she was ready to be showed at Brickmania Antwerp. So here she is, the "Beluga": A class 5HA, sailing under the flag of MAESTRO --- Thanks a lot to everyone involved in this project! C&C welcome!

Already a few months ago (it must have been August of the year), some intersting stories happened in the world of BoBS. Let me show you some: The not-that-mad-at-that-time King of Eslandola grants an apple Monopoly to MAESTRO @kabel - @Maxim I Since the beginning of MAESTRO, its members have focused on apples, apples and much more apples. Those precious green thingies were cultivated near the MAESTRO settlement of Elysabethtown and even the Tenotclaxans were learned the mysterious ways of how an apple orchard works. I am not going to start giving a list of why we earn it, those who doubt about it, feel free to look to most of the MOC's Faladrin, TitusV, Legostone, Captain Green Hair and myself made and you will see that the famous apple make a cameo in a lot of them. Felipe de la Manzana, the Godfather of the famous MAESTRO apples, has even the holy duty to find the famous golden apple. MAESTRO officials have frequently asked Eslandolan leadership for the apple monopoly and the monopoly was pending for a while. Lord Maximilian Damaximus was very surprised that at one moment, his father-in-law (who is also the King of Eslandola), gave Maximilian an apple on one of his visits aboard the "Margot", stating: "you have to picture this moment for your apple monopoly". Some time flied by, before Maximilian realised that the apple monopoly still was pending, so that's why he is now posting the picture in one or other notorious Eslandolan Gossip Paper. After receiving the apple monopoly, Lord Maximilian Damaximus (why didn't I named my sigfig Tom Ato, that's a lot shorter...) was looking to the Eslandolan fleet sailing next to the "Margot". Ships and apples and hopefully soonish an own settlement. Life is good... The mad stuntdouble of the King kicking Corries @Maxim I - @TitusV On an island far far away, called Isla Phillipe, Corrington scientist have stranded for a daring expedition. They wanted to know how life of a pig looks like. Their research trip started very calm, but then suddenly, a fool dressed like the King of Eslandola came out of nowhere and started kicking Corries. To our beloved Corrington friends: we assure you that we had nothing to do with it. If you take a good look, you can definitely see that this version of the King is not the same as the King who is standing on the "Margot". We are very sorry about the events on Isla Phillipe and are sending you a pair of pigs so you can continue your examination. We also promise to track down that foolish stuntdouble as we think he is keeping our real King hostage and he is the villain after the recent Oleon - Eslandola thingy... Oleon scientists developped a new way of boarding a ship @Sebeus I - @WindBlowingThroughTheHall Oleon's most famous warship, "Beatrix", was hunting a pirate ship. Nothing wrong with this, we even applaud for the initiative. After getting next to its prey, the main mast suddenly collapsed. A trillion of Oleon Soldiers (well, at least 6 soldiers), quickly boarded the pirate ship and captured it. A brilliant tactic those Oleonandeozers developped! Famous Oleon Captain celebrates the victory with erm, let's just say he celebrates the victory! @Sebeus I - @Maxim I After capturing the pirate ship, Oleon Captain Sebeus spotted a sloop with two breathtaking girls and full of wine. Well, we did not heard a lot from the captain since that event, but I am sure he will be ready when M needs him for the next mission! He is our hero! His name is James, James Sebeus. Or was it Stephan James? Or Stephan Bond? Or Stephan Sebeus? Or... ?... Anyway, a painter painted the scene in case he needed some leverage one day... Sea Rats Fortress disappears and reappears as Eslandolan Fortress! @Captain Green Hair - @kabel Till the day of today (and even tomorrow), Corrington scientist are getting a headache figuring how one of the most mysterious tricks of the century has been pulled off!! One of the fortresses near Bastion suddenly disappeared and reappeared next to an Eslandolan hamlet! Even the bloody pirates were suddenly Greencoats!!! Strange things happens at BOBS... [other voice: ] You can say that again Mr. Garrison! Who is Mr. Garrison? Anyway: Oleon claims an island @Sebeus I - @Maxim I Well there was some competition, but Oleon was first. Megablocks you Oleon!!! More about this later! Life just go on in Eslandola @kabel - @TitusV - @Captain Green Hair - @Maxim I - @Sebeus I Alright, I have to admit, I think I am out of stories... I don't have a potato for the long post, but I do have some more pictures! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and a few more --------------------------------------------- Well, Brickmania Limburg was a very fun event! Great that Kabel could find the time to be an exposant! I don't remember how many beers we had, but it was a fun weekend :D This table is 4 square meter. In exactly one month, you will see a post in this forum with a Pirate Lay-out 20x this size Hope you enjoyed the stories and pictures!! @Garmadon - @Kai NRG - @SkaForHire - @Phred : I hope that MAESTRO finally has its apple monopoly? The king has approven it :)
