Paul cantu Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Vig. 55d Governor Raul Pablo has recently enacted a new law which prohibits all alcohol in his port. A long time business owner Mr. Ricket had recently been losing money in the funeral home business because less people were getting killed in drunken brawls. He in turn decided to modify his funeral home/casket warehouse into the towns only bar. The exterior of the Funeral Home/Warehouse. I didn't have much of an option for the roof. If you havy any suggestions of other buildings or anything else that should be included in the port please tell me. Quote
Lego12 Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I really like this MOC. It has a lot of details and I love that secret door! Very good idea and concept! Quote
Darth Yoda Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Ohh, I like that pool table and the roof! Although I think it needs some lady servers... Quote
Brickvergnugen Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Anything with a monkey at the bar get my approval. Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I like it very much, nice decorations on the walls and a pooling (!) table!! The tavern has a cozy and warm feeling, enough rum in stock behind the bar and a piano for the music. This tavern has what a real tavern also has. The only issue is like what you've mentioned too, the roof. Perhaps you could place some tiles on the roof to make it more realistic. Keep up the good work! Quote
BlueBard Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Even if the exterior bulding looks a bit too "viking" for me, it's a nice MOC, with a lot of incredible detailed scenes in the interior! Quote
brickzone Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I like it. Nice busy lively feel inside the tavern, great minifigs, and wonderful furnishings! The baseplates as roof is a reasonable option I think. If you had more logs, obviously they could be mounted sideways and hinged in much the same manner. Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 A good roof technique is buying lots of these in brown or another colour which you like. Connect them all to a 'plate' and place it on the walls like Exotrator did here. Hope that helps. Of course you can tile the plates you use now. Quote
Dr. Steve Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Wow! Great MOC, I really like the piano and pool table Quote
Al7 Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Nice MOC i like the way you putted the shark it is a great idea and the secret door Quote
Ratshot Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 This is one nice MOC.I really like the part with the two fellows playing cards and one pulls out a gun. Improvements,perhaps a few female servers,maybe a a bouncer or two. Anyway this looks nice.Well done Quote
Guss Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 really nice tavern! I Love that pool table, and I think your roof is quite nice, for it size you need a lot of part to make a good roof, and you did well with these plates! nice usage of it^^ Quote
Captain Zuloo Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Captain Zorro, I think this looks to be a MOC worthy of the Classic-Pirates.com frontpage! What be your thoughts? Watch the frontpage in the next few days, Mister Paul Cantu. Quote
Zorro Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 That's a really nice secret bar you've made, and I like how you used Hagrid's torso for the bar owner! Vice Admiral Zorro, I think this looks to be a MOC worthy of the Classic-Pirates.com frontpage! What be your thoughts? Watch the frontpage in the next few days, Mister Paul Cantu. Absolutely, pls do so! Quote
Capt. Kirk Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Lot of action,... but where are the girls... Quote
captian flint lock Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Lot of action,... but where are the girls... i agree were are the wenches and the like apart from the lack of females i think that this is a very good moc, and all the details are good such as the pool table( you gotta love pool!!!) the card game going on flint lock Quote
isaacbrockthebuilder Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 It's a nice little pub. Why is everyone using the dwarf beard for there pirates Quote
Paul cantu Posted January 25, 2009 Author Posted January 25, 2009 It's a nice little pub. Why is everyone using the dwarf beard for there pirates Because it's a cool and useful piece for pirates. I do think it looks a little strange on the back and sides of minifigures without dwarf helmets. Quote
Admiral Bejaune Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I like the action and busy feel of this moc, you have captured the tavern scene very well. But I was wondering if the piano style instrument was in fact a piano or organ... The answer to that question would give me a good reference of what time period this moc is set in. Quote
hollisbrick Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Great Moc, Lots of detail Reminds of the good ol' I spy Quote

To answer your question this moc obviously isn't historically accurate considering they are playing pool but it is a piano. So what time period would this be in? Quote
Legoking Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Great MOC Paul. My favorite part is the pool table. But I also like the little secret room you have. Quote
Admiral Bejaune Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Thanks. To answer your question this moc obviously isn't historically accurate considering they are playing pool but it is a piano. So what time period would this be in? Well different variations of pool have been around since the 15th century so that one can slide, but the piano that we know of today came around in the mid to late 1800's, but there have been different variations of the piano leading up to the modern piano. Read up on both of them. Wikipedia.com is the best place IMO. Quote

I like to add some humor and cleverness into my mocs by incorperating modern things just a bit more old fashioned. Quote
