[ESL] Challenge IV - CAT A - We are sending the WHAT?

[Captain Braunsfeld]

At the pier of Pontelli:

Bernhard Bunsen has been charged to share the information about the Eslandolean treasure fleet with Major Woward Holowitz...

Bunsen: "Hey, Major Holowitz, I've got something important to tell you!"

Major Woward Holowitz: "WHAT? SPEAK UP SON, I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"

Bunsen: "Curses. All this freight is blocking my way.."

(louder) "We are sending the treasure fleet."

Major Woward Holowitz:"WE ARE SENDING THE WHAT?"

Bunsen: "WE ARE SENDING THE TREASURE FLEET FROM NELISA TO TERRELI!"

Major Woward Holowitz: "WE ARE SENDING THE TREASURE FLEET FROM NELISA TO TERRELI?"

Bunsen: "YES!"

Bunsen: "BUT THAT IS A SECRET!"

Major Woward Holowitz: "UNDERSTOOD! SO KEEP QUIET ABOUT IT, SON!"

C&C Welcome.

Hilarious!

I love the little houses on the pier, excellent work

[blackdeathgr]

Hahahahahaha! Great idea!!!

[Garmadon]

Hilarious once again, Captain B, and why is it that when I saw the major's beard, the first thing I thought was that he was probably a pirate in disguise? The dock is nicely cobbled, and the crowd of figs and freight are great as well! Good job with the houses too, though I think there may be a color or two too many there - but my favorite part is certainly that lovely little rowboat with the monkey in it! ...and Major Woward Holowitz's name!

[Capt Wolf]

LOL! Well done! I'm working on an entry with a similar concept, but I suspect you've already outdone me. Your humor continues to carry BoBS through the summer!

As for the build itself, I love it! Great waterside scene. I like the colors and interesting details on the buildings, the stone retaining wall and chains, and the minifig posing. Excellent all around!

[deraven]

That's great! The buildings and general scale of everything with the pier build is fantastic- a ton of interest, depth, and character in a pretty small space. Well done!

[Bregir]

No wonder you Eslandians are having trouble with enemy spies - you aren't exactly making it hard for others to pick up some intel!

I like the somewhat naive style of buildings with all its colours and details, and the stacked freight is a nice touch! The quays are nice too. Well done!

I think that false-beard stuff is now exhausted. Feel free to ignore the houses, they are just background.

Hilarious!

Thank you!

I am very happy about the way the water worked out. I've actually tried this on another MOC (that is still to be posted) and I found this aesthetically pleasing.

I've been working on a larger harbour for years - and now I think I have to scrap it and start it all over again.

Thank you, unknown fellow eurobricker.

That makes me think I should have hid some spy in a barrel in the background with just the head peeping out. Ok, next time

[Captain Green Hair]

And all your citizens look soooo happy!

[Ayrlego]

Hilarious build Captain B! and somehow quite believable! I especially like the facial expressions - great entry!

[dr_spock]

LOL. Funny build and story. Everybody is smiling like they won the lottery or something.

[TitusV]

Really nice build, love all the different houses!

[Captain Braunsfeld]

Nice little build, a lot of detail packed in on such a small Base.

The problem is, not all of them are loyal Eslandolean citizens ...

Thanks

Yes, they are fine (but focus is on the scene with those shouting people).

[Elostirion]

Very clever idea and execution.

But man, I love that pier of Pontelli! Those facades are absolutely gorgeous. The style really matches perfectly with what we have seen so far on Nellisa: Colourful caribbean houses, yet still it manages to diverge from Nova Terreli and develop a very own appearance. Fantastic, I can't praise that enough!

[Tezclatipoca]

Great entry !

I like the houses aspect ! Especially the yellow one.

And hilarious story ! The people in the pier seem to enjoy the fun of the situation too... :D

[Kolonialbeamter]

This is a typical Captain Braunsfeld - comic-like colorful design, hilarious characters (besides that shady dude sitting on the very left), ridiculously funny story... monkey! Love all about it

Please never change that

Nothing more to say

[Captain Becker]

Great comic and one again: Hilarious story telling! Keep the humor up! Also, I really like the dock youve made here, and especially that brown tricorne whit white paint. It fits so well and is so usable!

Fair wind and Calm seas!

Yours truly:

Captain Charles J. Becker

[SilentWolf]

Great entry with lots of humor. I shall have a reference to your builds when I complete my entry. The buildings make a great water front. I am always fond of Lego animals so I appreciate the CMF dog and the monkey is a classic. Is the brown tricorn custom don't to have the white trim?

Thanks to the efforts of my wife, some brown tricorns now have a white trim
