Posted March 19, 20168 yr Freebuild #3 March 2016 A Whale of a Tale Our pirate rats needed some whale oil lube but the whale would have none of that. The one that got away made for a tall tale at the tavern in Bastion.

March 19, 20168 yr I've been waiting for someone to make a good whaling MOC, and you've done a nice job. Both the tale and the tail are nicely done and make for an enjoyable scene. I would suggest adding a rope of some kind to the end of the spear, otherwise they'll have an awfully hard time catching the whale. OL approves .
March 19, 20168 yr Excellent! We were just discussing that we needed a whaling MOC, and voila, you've done it! Good whale tail (and tale). I'll echo the comment that the only thing missing is a rope attached to the spear, but that does not detract from this beautiful build. Eslandola approves!
March 19, 20168 yr So the hunt was not worthwhale?... I must admire the rats bravery, hunting whales in a rowboat Eslandola Edited March 19, 20168 yr by Sir Stig
March 19, 20168 yr Author Thank you everyone. I've been waiting for someone to make a good whaling MOC, and you've done a nice job. Both the tale and the tail are nicely done and make for an enjoyable scene. I would suggest adding a rope of some kind to the end of the spear, otherwise they'll have an awfully hard time catching the whale. Avast! Ye discovered the secret how the whale got away.
March 20, 20168 yr Very nice! That whale-tail looks great! (not something I ever thought I'd say on a Lego forum... or indeed any forum ) Great job! +1 from Corrington Edited March 20, 20168 yr by Ayrlego
March 21, 20168 yr Excellent depiction of the whale tail, and good job with the rest of the scene too. Those whalers are either really brave or completely mad to be so close in such a small boat - one good whack by that tail and they're all goin' down. But I suppose the threat of death was half of the thrill of whaling. Approved from Corrington.
March 22, 20168 yr Whaletail... this is NSFW! Good job, depiction looks convincing, it seems the whale won't be harmed too badly, and I'm always a fan of 1x1 round plates for water. Take this from Oleon!
March 22, 20168 yr Corrington approves Nice tail, although I'm glad he got away, ending up as pirate lube sounds like a horrible ending for such a magnificent creature! Edited March 22, 20168 yr by BrickOn
March 22, 20168 yr I love that someone finally did this build. Nice brick built whale. +1 approval from Corrington
March 22, 20168 yr Well, that was fast! Glad someone took up my suggestion so fast, and even more so that you did it so excellently! The diving whale looks nice - and the only thing I am missing is the long coil of rope. I am hoping to see this aspect of BoBS expanded more over time +1 approval from Corrington!
March 22, 20168 yr Great MOC ! Eslandola approves ! Brave Sea Rats not plundering is always a good thing... :)
