September 12, 20231 yr The scale of these builds never fails to impress. I honestly never thought about using larger Duplo-sized bricks as supports, although given the size, it absolutely makes sense. Nicely done!

Yes, on purpose :) I think it needs a window below the flag though. Will have to add it! On 9/12/2023 at 5:07 PM, Mr Maniac said: The scale of these builds never fails to impress.

September 15, 20231 yr Author Some more progress on the shoreline. One week to go to finish up lots of remaining things
September 15, 20231 yr Most impressive Hope the bluecoats can keep up with this I don't know if this has been asked before, but do you guys plan to display ships in the collab layout as well?

Yes another builder is making a much smaller bluecoat fort There will be a smattering of ships in the harbor - maybe 4 or 5. I'm going to include one of my own so that I can have a ship in the water if I display it alone

September 16, 20231 yr That door technique is downright amazing, I need to get my hands on some masonry bricks in reddish brown.
September 17, 20231 yr Author Tested lights and motor The front water baseplates Started adding minifigs
September 26, 20231 yr Author Still a WIP, but showed a version of my section this past weekend at a show. A few pics:
October 5, 20231 yr The whole build is so impressive but my favorite scene is the pirate on that small peninsula, chased by redcoats. Hope his fellow pirate will arrive in time to save him!
