TalonCard Posted February 14, 2022 Posted February 14, 2022 Haven't you ever wondered why no one's made a biography video about Captain Redbeard and his history in the world of LEGO Pirates? No, just me? Well, I made one anyway. Hope you'll check it out here. Quote

Marooned Marin Posted February 14, 2022 Posted February 14, 2022 I'm not a long time member of this forum and in this short amount of time I have seen some extraordinary MOCs and ideas, but this, this is by far the best thing so far that caught my eye. Fantastic work! Quote

That's the very talented chap Davisonspeaking from Fiverr doing a dramatic reading of the text from the Ships and the Sea program in the intro. The rest is me doing my best, lol. 11 hours ago, Marooned Marin said: I'm not a long time member of this forum and in this short amount of time I have seen some extraordinary MOCs and ideas, but this, this is by far the best thing so far that caught my eye.

You're a genius how you've managed to weave all the various official media and pirate releases into a single, cohesive continuity. Even 4+ Pirates - IMPRESSIVE! Quote
PxChris Posted February 15, 2022 Posted February 15, 2022 This truly is a fantastic thing @TalonCard! How you've managed to weave a semi-coherent story out of all of the incoherent data is a thing of art. As I commented elsewhere, it was both fun and informative! I certainly learned a few new things. And discovered a few other sources I need to seek out (for example the 4 Juniors mini-comics, I didn't even know those existed). I'm going to have to re-watch it a few times to catch the other things I surely missed on the first round. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the following episodes. Quote
TalonCard Posted February 15, 2022 Author Posted February 15, 2022 Thank you! I almost forgot, I was going to post the mini comic scans after the episode went up. (I was pleasantly surprised to find I already owned both of them; I thought I just had Kragg's!) Captain Redbeard Captain Kragg Bricklink calls them comics, which is a bit of a stretch since it's just two panoramic scenes per booklet. But I do love all the background action and the character designs. The 4+ stuff grows on me the more I look at it. Quote

I was looking at the images Bricklink had for them and did notice that it looked like they were just scenes, but I agree, they are a lot of fun! Quote
Cincinnati Posted March 2, 2022 Posted March 2, 2022 Great idea and work!!! I really appreciated how you used so many sources about the world of lego pirates. This shows that you have been a huge fan of the pirate theme for a long time Quote
Marooned Marin Posted April 20, 2022 Posted April 20, 2022 @TalonCard Your awesome piece of work is almost (mentioned) inside the latest post on Classic-Pirates.com Quote

TalonCard Posted December 5, 2022 Author Posted December 5, 2022 Episode III is now live! Redbeard begins his return to notoriety in the Tropical Sea. We've finally reached the time period with the most full-length stories, and thanks to the fantastic Golden Medallion restoration and the legendary audio drama translations here on the forum, there was a lot of great material to work with.

PxChris Posted December 6, 2022 Posted December 6, 2022 I had a chance to watch the video yesterday after work @TalonCard and it was most excellent, as to be expected! You're right that there is a lot of data to use for this period. I absolutely need to watch it again and soak in some of the cool info a bit better. 10 hours ago, Mister Phes said: Out of curiosity... how many episodes are you intending to make? I believe in the videos he says that it'll be an eight part series. Quote
TalonCard Posted December 6, 2022 Author Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) Thank you so much for watching! I've been enjoying your Instagram stuff as well, BTW. Eight parts is correct. I arrived at that decision by using the incredibly scientific process of realizing that would make each episode "pieces of eight". Edited December 6, 2022 by TalonCard Quote
