TheBrickAvenger Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Hi everyone I present you my last creation, the lighthouse of Whitecap Bay and its mermaids, I was inspired by this picture "Aye, Whitecap Bay! Every worthless seaman fears the name, and rightly so, though few know why or dare to ask." "Be the stories true?" "Say what robs you of your staunch heart Gibbs, or forever leave it to the whiter fields of fancy." "...Mermaids, captain?" - Hector Barbossa and Joshamee Gibbs The Mermaids Of Whitecap Bay (Pirates Of The Caribbean : On Stranger Tides) by TheBrickAvenger, sur Flickr Don't hesitate to glance at pictures for more details! Deeplinks : 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 13 - 14 - 15 - 16 Brickshelf Gallery It is undoubtedly the biggest MOC I have ever realized, the lighthouse is more than 35 cms (14 inches). I hope it will please you ! Quote
Ltfalcon Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Wow, This is very cool! Sand beach, tower, everything looks spot on. The textures are great as well, looks like a screen shot form a movie or game. Great work Quote
Captain Dee Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Beautifully done and excellent presentation to match. The lighthouse looks great in those colors and the smoothness of the wooden parts is nice. My favorite part of the main photo is the sand - it looks incredibly real from this angle. Those layered plates work well for all parts of the base. The other details, both on land and in the water, are nice as well. This is a superb version of the scene and if it was an official set I'd buy it! Excellent work. Quote
Balthazar Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Well done! Amazing landscape, tower and minifigures. Quote
dr_spock Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Don't hesitate to glance at pictures for more details! Great build. The lighthouse is well done. The water and mermaids details seem to be blown out on my screen. Quote
Staslegomaster Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 It surely pleased me, it's a super lighthouse. So keep on creating. Try to upload it in LEGO Ideas - lots of fans will support it, I for one, to have it in my LEGO collection. Let me know your nick there if you follow my advice. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Excellent - this clearly beats the official version! Quote
mrcp6d Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Phenomenal MOC! I really like the reversal of the typical "light bley with dark accents" to the opposite in the lighthouse tower. Quote
Plaid Beard Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 I am a pretty huge fan of this MOC. The detail you put into the sand astounds me. Very well done! Quote
James Wellington Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Wow. I absolutely love the detail of the tower. Also, the beach was done very, very well. Great, great work! Quote
Mr. Townsend Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 An outstanding and cleanly build MoC as always TBA! The lighthouse is very well textured to give it a weathered look and I love the minifig hands as broken rails in the railing. I do think however, that blue water may have complimented the build better as the trans clear is lost in the white. Build on! Quote
mojaramask Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Wow, this is very nice! Especially love Jack running down the steps, that made me chuckle Quote
Legocity2713 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Awesome and instantly recognizable. Detailed, well textured, great water technique, and an interesting tower build. Keep up the good work my friend. Edited June 11, 2015 by Legocity2713 Quote
eldiano Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 This is so excellent and amazing, the only minor detail you forgot was gunner on the boat, but it's ok he won't fit lol Quote
Steph 104th Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Beautiful creation, that tower is stunning Quote
CptMugwash Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 A well deserved front page creation, I keep forgetting to check in the pirates forums for great mocs like this, a great reminder for me to always pop my head in for inspiration, I like how you've broken up the tower wall with cheeses and jumpers. Well done! Quote
Gary The Procrastinator Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Fantastic build, and I like how Jack's arms are positioned, reminds me of how he runs in the movies. That lighthouse is top-notch...just a little bit better than the LEGO kit Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Outstanding job! Keep up the great work! Quote
Staslegomaster Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 I like your tower very much -I have already wrote about it. You uploaded it using Brickshelf account. I've got 16 posts and an account but I can't log in. Do you know why? I can't find any answer, sorry. Please use your experience to help a newcomer Quote
Lasivian Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Very nice! I am curious how you handled the underside, could I get some pictures of the bottom? (Not as "pretty" but sexy to us builders!" Thanks! Quote
