[Collaborative MOC] Wacky pirates

[sweetsha]

Hi everyone,

Let me introduce you a collaborative creation built with two friends Kloou and N3rik68 for Fanabriques 2016 (event that took place few weeks ago in France)

The display is mainly composed of a big island surrounded by smaller ones and by two big boats and some small surprises

Let's see together all sides of this display :

Well, not easy to do justice to this creation with these pics due to its size, so here are some details (warning captain, a storm of pics is approaching )

One of my favorite detail, a reference to the final challenge of Koh-Lanta (french version of Survivor)

And the traditional sacrifice to the mighty volcano :

That was a real pleasure to work with these two lads, and the display was really appreciated by the audience. There were also two little games : finding 9 specific minifigs, and 9 shark-guys all hidden in the display - and the kids enjoyed a lot this kind of game ^^

The whole thing was build in a way we could easily move it from our homes to the event, some it is composed by small modules of baseplates. To sum up, it took us only 5 minutes to assemble (or disassemble) the island (but maybe half an hour to pick up all the small trans-blue rounds that were used for the water )

For instance here is a pic of some WIP of my part of the display to see how the island is made :

Well, we hope you'll enjoy it as it is never easy to present pics that can do justice to a big creation

Note - you can find even more pics in the following Flickr albums : here, here or here.

Bonus pics :

The two finding games

And our small box of trans-blue round plates

Marvellous - very enjoyable - this is one of the best pirate dioramas I have ever seen.

I had a lot of fun in discovering all the funny details

Wow! What a build all the silly little details, scenes within scenes - thats just my department. You did a fantastic job putting this together. Just hilarious and so whimsical

[BrickCurve]

[Blufiji]

I really like this. I especially like how you guys brought a sense of fun into every part of the scene. I think that's very much in the spirit of Lego. Thank you for posting this!

Thanks for the frontpage and for your comments, we're glad you like it

This blew my mind. Amazing and hilarious! The fort is incredibly well designed, but my favorites are the little islands with people on them.

lovely work, friend, great mocs :)

Wow! How could i seriously miss that when it was first posted! This is excellent not only because of the sheer work hours it needed but also due to its great dense of humour and kid (and not-so-kid) activities/easter eggs (a huge fan btw). I especially liked the alladin hunt for the magic lamp and the decapitating cannonball! Also the fort design and coloring is great!

[Brick Corner]

This looks spectacular! I wish to be there and at least take a shot near!

Your MOC is simply great!!! It is certainly the best pirate diorama I have ever seen!!! The detail of your building that I like most is the fort (wonderful explosion!), but also the little cameos you built on the smaller islands are very nice... and everything is completed by two or three kilos of crystal clear Caribbean sea! Congratulations!!!
