Posted August 11, 20177 yr This model was inspired by a LUG challenge focused around the Pirates theme. While I usually only make a few Pirates builds each year, it has always been one of my favorite genres. The one limit for the challenge was that your entry had to be no bigger than the largest official Pirates set. I have always been more attracted to the islands, forts, and land settings than ships themselves, so I settled on building a small fort on an island. A single 32×32 baseplate served as the foundation for the model. For once a peaceful day with no pirates, or enemy ships in sight of the small Imperial outpost. Which makes it a fitting time to restock with some fresh supplies. More pictures are available on brickbuilt. Thanks for looking
August 11, 20177 yr This is quite nice! I like the technique you used for the tower's window, it looks great! Did the restriction mean piece count or base/height size?
August 11, 20177 yr I really like this! a lot! it reminds me of a Playmobil set, rebuilt in LEGO! In any case, something must be said about the amount of detail you put into this as well!
August 14, 20177 yr This is really nice! I like the doors and the water. I'll have to try those on my next MOC!

No part count limit, just had to fit within the footprint of official sets On 8/11/2017 at 5:46 PM, Jevil said: I really like this! a lot! it reminds me of a Playmobil set, rebuilt in LEGO!
