Fort Brimstone: An Imperial Soldier Base

[Hinckley]

Thanks. The drum a drumsticks are fabuland peices. I think they came with one of the monkeys, though I'm not sure which set they came with.

Yes! It's Hinckley's time to shine! Finally I get to put my Fabuland expert skills to use:

You were right in both counts. Apparently only monkeys play drums. Pigs play the tuba and Rabbits play accordions in case you were wondering.

Like I've said before Sir Nadroj, you are a very talented builder. I like this a lot, especially your attention to realistic details. I love the exposed brick and the spanish tile roof! *y* *y* Excellent job, thank you for sharing with us.

This is an excelent moc. One of the best land based pirate/imperial mocs if not the best. The brick wall and tile roof are the highlights. The rock arch is a relatively simple but great addition. *y*

My only negative critique would be to replace the cannons with official lego cannons if you had a choice. That being said, I didn't really notice until closer examination.

Watch out! There is a starfish on the wall. It's gonna get you. X-D

[SirNadroj]

Thanks! Now that I look at the pics, Hinckley, the drums probably came with the first small set, considering I don't have any pigs. :-D And the reason I made my own cannons is because it was cheaper that real cannons, but I usually make my own cannons anyway. :)

Very good job the partially exposed bricks lego style (except with added sophistication) is a great concept. I also like the POC rock formation.

God Bless,

Nathan

Thanks Nathan!

Hey, look what's on the headlines of Classic-pirates ;-)

[SirNadroj]

Oh boy, thanks! You made my day! :-D :)

Yes, this MOC is very worthy of the frontpage of Classic-Pirates.com!

Not sure I like that picture though.

I know what you mean, it is a bit fuzzy. I already made it a bit brighter when I resized it.

Maybe Sir Nadroj can try to take a sharper picture of the entire MOC and we can replace this one?

I didn't have any good canvas's to take the pictures on at the time of the MOC's completion. Good thing I took tons of pictures. I think they are all here if you want to change it: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=236621

EDIT: I'll see what I can do! Give me maybe 10 minutes, I'll take a good one!

Thanks! I'll update the picture on the frontpage as soon as you give me the sign in this thread.

The problem with the current picture is with the focus. It is on the wall and not on the MOC.

Taking a picture from a bigger distance might solve this "focus issue".

Here you go. I think the second one is best.

As you can see, I've added the flags from the 'Krusty Krab' to give a nautical feel.

If I had too choose, I'd pick the first one. Because it's taken from below, they MOC is even looks bigger and more immpressive.

These sharp pictures really do this masterpiece justice!

I've updated the picture on Classic-pirates.

As Mr. Tiber, I think the second one looks most impressive.

A mighty beautiful MOC you've created Sir Nadroj !!

This MOC is really awesome... but it's nothing compared to Chuck Norris...

Oh yes, I mistyped. I was talking about the first one.

Sir Nadroj, I suggest you add these new pics to your first post and replace the fuzzy one.

Done. :)

[ZeekyBoogeyDoog]

I love those flags! *wub* Very nice touch.

Awesome signatures by the way ;-)

[SirNadroj]

Thank you Zeeky, and yes, Chuck Norris is awesome. :-D

[Wout]

Very nice tower. good find

Oh, but this isn't a find Wout.

Sir Nadroj made this with his own hands AND it is headlined on Classic-pirates ;-)

With his own hands??? How can we know Chuck Norris didn't help??

He probably was busy setting ants on fire with his magnifying glass at night.

Mr. Tiber's right, as awesome as he is, Chuck Norris hasn't helped. :-D
