Duke Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 This is really excellent, I don't know how you can have the vision and the patience to create something this huge and detailed! Quote
NewRight Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 That turned out excellent shape and design. I can't wait to see the finished product. Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 Thanks for the kind words guys! Maybe one day we will be able to display our mini-fig scale vessals toghether in a special lego sailing event? Me, mr. Errorist and perhaps even mr. Tiber are planning to display at Legoworld Zwolle 2009. You are welcome to join us in the revolution, the return of pirates, the overtaking of LW! PS: if you have MSN, my adress is in my profile Quote
El Bucanero Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 It's really shaping up to be a true masterpiece Cap'n! That hull is absolutely stunning! The tiles give it a very smooth look. Those interior bits are also magnificent!! I can't wait till you start with the top of the ship! Excellent...! Quote
Chenben Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 (edited) It's amazing ! I like particulary the pieces of furniture on the last pictures, they're really great Edited July 22, 2008 by Chenben Quote
Errorist Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Nice job on the bow Captain Seems like you won't be needing 10+ versions to make it work The furniture is looking really nice as well. Impressive stuff. Keep it up Quote
Capn Frank Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Great work Captain Greenie I love the furniture. If you'd like some more funiture ideas, check out mijasper's or marakoeschtra's BS folders. In case you didn't know. Quote

Jep, they are indeed a great source of inspiriation, and i forgot to mention them, thanks for reminding me (us) Quote
Siegfried Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 You are a very talented one! Thanks for the update. Thanks again for all the nice words guys, but constructive criticism is also very welcome Er.... you should make a space ship? Quote
Joey Lock Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Im looking foward to this! I recently accquired for my Birthday a Pirateology book: Its about a Captain who has captured a Pirate Captain Carlton and in exchange the Pirate agreed to tell him about a Pirates Life. I also got a Model ship which is supposed to be Captain Carltons "Swiftbuck" its a Ducth Merchant ship, the model was sent to the Governer to see when the ship comes into port. Brilliant book, I want to build a VOC ship to! phreds Halloween Ship was a massive inspiration. Quote
Capn Frank Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Er.... you should make a space ship? This is the wrong forum to be talking about space ships. phreds Halloween Ship was a massive inspiration. I inspired someone!? Quote
simonwillems Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 After a three weeks vacation one needs some time to try to keep up with things, I missed the update of this beautiful ship. This is really going into the right direction, I could not really visualise in my head the way you wanted to make the hull upside down with plates and tiles, but now that I see it I love it! I expect the need of many, many Bricklink orders.... I'll be following this project. By the way: congratulations with moderator-hood mr. Green Hair! You seemed to have careened your way through the ranks rapidly. Quote
Zorro Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Another one with the salary of a secretary-of-state (US edition)... Man Id wish I could build one like them but I dont know how to start, and although I have dozens of guns and soldiers, I barely have any bricks besides the one of my sets. It is looking really cool though, and since I am belgian, I will support for you ! The Prins Willem and the HMS Victory...We are sure being treated well these times. Quote
Guss Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 oh my god! amazing, you're sure you'll have enough bricks to build it ? ^^ Quote
Claus von Nassau Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Dutch Pride on!!! great ship, what els can ity be of dutch making cant wait to see it finishd claus van nassau klaas van nederland Quote
Captain Zuloo Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Wow. This and Teddy's Victory I will be watching very closely. I would give some constructive critisism, but the onl thing I can say, is don't use faded white bricks. Quote
Wout Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 I didnt notice this before. Very nice Captain Greenhair! I go to legoworld, so I also will look for this. Quote

Do you just use a cloth to wipe them with? Quote
Zorro Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Really? Do you just use a cloth to wipe them with? How does one clean his SAILS?? Can I just put them in my washing machine? At what temparature? (im not kidding, I just dont know and I wanna know because some of my sails are just dirty!) Quote

(im not kidding, I just dont know and I wanna know because some of my sails are just dirty!) I believe there is a tutorial for this somewhere. Not on EB or C-P, but I think a web search might be useful. Quote
