Commodore Hornbricker has just released pictures of his fantastic new Pirates MOC, The Capstan Inn! With a grand feeling of the tudor period, but full of Pirates and scallywags, this model even features an amusing new brand of grog: Hogwarts Express.

“What do you like best: vessels and vehicles or bases and buildings?”
Over the past few days, I’ve been in Pirate-mode really enjoying the new 2009 Pirate theme. I have not yet found the new Soldier Fort or the large Pirate Ship, but I’m really looking forward to the fort. I love island and fort sets. As I’ve been looking at all the new pirate sets, it got me asking myself, “What do I enjoy more, Ships or Structures”?

After months of effort, Guss finally produces an amazing Pirate ship. Based on that of the One Piece manga strip, this model is a perfect reflection of the real thing. Guss did a brilliant job capturing details such as the figurehead and the custom sails. This ship sure is a beauty!
