[MOC] Smoldering Bay Fishing

[MontyMatte]

Ahoy and greetings.

Smoldering Bay Fishing invites you to enjoy the best fish in the seven seas.

The special feature: Caught by an old pirate (possibly even a captain), the fish is steamed over the crater of a small volcanic island. Be quick, because the dealer has also heard about the delicacies.

This time a set with a pirate theme - another favorite of mine. In addition to a lively design, I also wanted to submit a slightly smaller project to the Bricklink Designer Program (Series 5).

So we end up with less than 900 parts, which is quite satisfactory for the size of the result. Nevertheless, I couldn't completely do without details ;)

If you like this project, I'd be happy to receive a short comment - of course also criticism, or a simple ahoy.

Bon Voyage,

Yours, Tobi aka MontyMatte

A fine creation, well-fitted for our frontpage. Congratulations! 

But, as Scooter would ask: How much is the fish?

Brilliant work, @Captain Braunsfeld!  And bonus points for incorporating a pop culture reference into your post.

So what are the chances of this submission reaching the Crowd Funding phase?

The idea of using volcano steam to cook fish is fantastic... it made me hungry... and I'm not joking!

Great build. Fun way to cook your fish. I do like the cook filleting the fish on the counter.

Thank you very much, Captain

If HP stops by, he'll get it for free :)

Probably not that good.

Great job, awesome composition, creative lore, everything about this is great. Also I have a question - that telescope lens, is it just a 1x1 clear stud?

Unique design and idea: good work! I like the brown katanas for the ladder, are they a real element? However, whilst I appreciate the original palm tree design, I think it looks a little bare, and I don't understand the dark tan at the top.
