Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted July 11, 2010 Eurobricks Emperor Posted July 11, 2010 Thanks for posting Captain K! This is an amazing ship and must have take quite some time to construct.

Andre1983nl Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 How heavy is this model? I prefer just a little bit smaller Quote

Here some information of the builder of the ship. He has asked me to write this. Just out of curiosty, how come he hasn't shared this himself? He's most welcome here of course. Quote
Ratshot Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) Just out of curiosty, how come he hasn't shared this himself? He's most welcome here of course. We should send these famous builders invitations to join our site and ask them to show some of there masterpieces. Could be good for publicity. Edited July 21, 2010 by Ratshot Quote
Legorski Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Whenever I see an amazing ship, I think what will someone do next to top the previous, what will give me that extra amazement. I can't begin to believe what can top this, if it can ever be topped! I'm in absolute shock. Lovin' every Brick of it! Legorski, Quote
