Captain Braunsfeld Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Another attraction was built in Pontelli: A renaissance-style bath (sponsored by Colonel Brickinson). From Saturday to Wednesday this was a great place for everyone to go and have a bath... ... like this young musketeer who is about to jump into the pool. For some strange reason Brickinson had insisted on those reliefs that showed a crowned monkey head. Nobody knew why. (Except for the followers of Brickinson's adventures) On Thursdays, Brickinson was practising his swimming skills. On Friday evenings, Brickinson had reserved the bath for his wife and himself. On Friday mornings, Alberto and George da Pontelli carried out complex naval experiments in the bath. For some reasons, no Pontelli citizen entered the bath on a Friday the 13th... C&C Welcome Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Nice build Capt Braunsfeld, I really like the use of those grooved bricks for pillars in the back there! The day-to-day program is pretty funny too. Particularly the complex naval experiments. Quote
Garmadon Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Love those naval experiments, Captain B, and the whole bath looks quite elegant as well, with the white and gold (and the monkey heads! ) I really like the clock over the door and the stands above too! Excellent addition to Pontelli! Quote
SilentWolf Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Nice usage of the lifesaver rings! I would had never thought of using them in that way. The bath looks great with the white and gold coloring and accents. I lIke the monkey faces and picked up on them immediately. The story is great also. Naval battles are fun but I'm going to say it might take the octopus a long time to wash all those legs. Quote
Capt Wolf Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Great build! The grill bricks work great in the columns on the wall. I'm intrigued by all the items on the high shelf. And I swear the eyes in the monkey relief keep following me as I move... Quote
Sir Stig Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Lovely build. Funny scenes adds life to the build. The monkey conspiracy are starting to unsettle me, but in a good way. The style strikes me as a place of worship in the Oleon tradition. The shelf/upper floor adds a lot to the build. Quote
Phadeout Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Going for a Capt B style: Nice build. Funny. Quote
Ayrlego Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Very nice - definitely a rich and extravagant feel about this that displays Brickinson's new found wealth! I especially like the use of the grooved bricks as columns. Great job! Quote
Elostirion Posted October 22, 2016 Posted October 22, 2016 Lovely MOC, looking fantastic. Once again. Another great addition to the lovely town of Pontelli! Quote

Excellent addition to Pontelli! I was not 100% sure about the clock. When did they start to put clocks everywhere?

Imagine what he could steal from an unprotected harbour or small ship.... 20 hours ago, Capt Wolf said: Great build! The grill bricks work great in the columns on the wall.

More an expression of gratitude from Brickinson's side. 15 hours ago, Phadeout said: Going for a Capt B style: Nice build. Funny. Got it. Thanks.

The only downside is that I do not have too many of them... 4 hours ago, Elostirion said: Lovely MOC, looking fantastic. Once again. Another great addition to the lovely town of Pontelli!

ArchitectureFan Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Great bath - this comes with style. And I like the variations of the water! Quote
Franco Clarke Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 A nice build, and of a topic we don't see all that much of! I like all the different users of the baths. Quote

I like all the different users of the baths. I guess not so many of the characters we see are actually bathing ... And it seems that the pirate emoticons are not working ... Or maybe they are ...
