[COR - FB - SHIP] HMS Melampus at Eldopidy Fortress, Port Woodhouse

[Bricksbypidy]

With the arrival of HMS Melampus in Port Woodhouse, Willem van Baarle's fleet will be expanded with a third vessel. The HMS Melampus is another masterpiece designed by William Parker @boeing_787_8_dreamliner. It is a frigate with 48 guns, 26x 18 lb longguns; 12x 9lb longguns and 8x 12lb carronades. It is the third higher class vessel under the command of Willem van Baarle.

The HMS Melampus docks in the outer harbor of Port Woodhouse, near Eldopidy Fortress. In this fort, equipped with a number of cannons, several marines have a break, who sail the raging oceans hunting for brutal pirates. The necessary supplies are hoisted on board with the cranes to provide the marines with sufficient rum for their sea missions.

Beautiful diorama!  Well built ship and I like the fortress too. The water looks great. I like that there are a lot of minifigures.

Very nice ship. Really a work of art. Have seen already on instagram i believe and went straight to the forum to check it out. Very good.

Although I am not sure the fortress is able to be licensed as it is just two times the new eldorado fortress digitally. Although i see a lot of effort is being put in making the two versions one big fort, and the islandly setting around it makes it really neat. Also the liveliness of the marines and the different soldiers are nice to see.

This is beautiful, you really have brought out the potential of the imperial fort set.  It looks just beautiful with the water!  Magnificent ship too.
