knight_40k Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone, it is long overdue but I finally got around to constructing the Bluecoat ship we never got in the 2015 Pirates wave. I have been working on this on and off since The Brick Bounty was released but time/money restraints were holding me back for a while. This ship was created using a hybrid design of both The Brick Bounty and Brickbeards Bounty as I wanted it to look like an official Lego set. After many Bricks & Pieces orders and a few Bricklink orders, I present to you my Bluecoats new home. Edited February 24, 2017 by knight_40k Quote
blackdeathgr Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Nice one! I was wondering how such a ship (bluecoat) would look like. Quote
Littleworlds Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 This reminds me so much on the first wave (no pun intended!) of pirates back in 89/90. So good to see this! It is such a beautiful ship. The colour combination works very well on it. Quote
j30spiff Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Really nice job on this ship. I would like to see it side by side some of the official LEGO pirate ships. Quote
kurigan Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Nice build, but i gotta move it over to the MOC forum. Quote
NewTown Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Very nice ship! It would be great if there was an official set like this. Having just got back into Lego a year and a half ago I missed all the old ships. I would love to have one with a full hull like this. Quote
GeoBrick Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 It strikes me as an Imperial Flagship/Brick Bounty hybrid. Nevertheless, beautifully done! Quote

I wasn't sure how it would turn out when I first started but it far exceeded my expectations.

The colour combination works very well on it. Thank you. I got a lot of ideas for it from this forum. The only ship I have from the early days is my childhood 6271 Imperial Flagship.

Thanks, I would like to be able to show a 3-way comparison between this, Brickbeards Bounty and The Brick Bounty, however I have modded all my ships so unfortunately nothing is in its original state.

Thanks, I also missed out on a lot of the older ships and wanted the Bluecoats to get sort of ship from the 2015 wave but TLG failed to deliver, so I was forced to make my own.
