Isn't she a beauty?
This vessel built by Sebeus I is referred to as "The Beauty", and it certainly lives up to its name. This Polacca features some great details that are always present in Sebeus' builds including a great color scheme, custom sails, and an awesome crew.

Islanders doing their Islander thing.
Our very own Sebeus I recently built some lovely little Islander creations. These were originally intended to make up a bigger diorama, but the project was never finished. The rocks that Sebeus I constructed are very impressive and offer a very interesting level of detail and shape. How did he do it you ask?

Don't look back!
Evildead depicts a giant squid chasing after a light snack. The poor pirate seems to be in quite a panic. The details on the squid are great, and the water technique is unique and different from what is usually seen when depicting water in Lego form.

Now with RC cannons!
Morthen's Golden Whale shows off a brilliant gold and red color scheme. However this vessel isn't just nice to look at, but it also features working remote controlled cannons! Perfect for taking on Pirates who are up for a watery battle. Be sure to check out the video in the forum of the cannons in action.

A Map Vendor and his cart
Flickr user KadasBence recently built this splendid little cart for a map vendor. This scurvy salesman goes about selling maps to fellow pirates who are in need of instructions to a specific location, whether it leads them to some buried treasure or the nearest drinking tavern. The lovely little details make this cart and minifigure superb, and the whole style feels reminiscent of LEGO's Classic Pirates theme.

DarkTemplar's take on the Flying Dutchman
The Flying Dutchman has been built by a handful of builders before, with each version showcasing unique features and details. DarkTemplar continues the tradition with his version of Davy Jones' famous ship. The color scheme of grey, black, and dark green works surprisingly well for this vessel, and the white leaf pieces used as sails are particularly creative. The ship is also built in the scale of a set, so that it wouldn't dwarf official LEGO pirate ships like The Black Pearl or the Queen Anne's Revenge.

A pirate resting on an arch.
The LEGO Pirates theme sometimes lends itself to vignettes better than others, and this is a great example of such a scene. Fellow user Haplo tells that he came across an image of a pirate resting on an arch online when he was searching for some inspiration and ideas. The image is in fact a small scene taken from the famous Disneyland attraction known as Pirates of The Caribbean. The pirate resting on the arch, the parrot, and the other various details around the scene make this vignette a small treasure.

Napoleon's troops crossing the Alps.
Small pirate vignettes are always effective ways of telling a short story or tale through LEGO bricks, and michaelozzie manages to effectively tell one through his amazing scene of Napoleon's troops crossing through the Alps. The lighting and composition used in this shot is stunning and is intended to be reminiscent of Keith Rocco's famous paintings of Napoleon's campaign.
