Look down, look down, don't look 'em in the eye!
Eurobricks member Matthias130182 shows us how the Redcoats treat their prisoners in this scene showcasing a forced labour camp under Redcoat rule. Pirates and Bluecoats alike work together under heavy guard, and the pile of bodies in the corner hints at what happens if they don't!

Simply Elegant
Though simply named "An Imperial Ship", one can see that this is not a simple ship at all. His first LEGO Pirate ship MOC, Forbidden Cove user Purple Wolf creates this sleek and defined Redcoat vessel. Using full custom rigging, a creative rolled-up sail technique, and overall nice part usage, he brings one more ship to the Imperial Fleet.

Rebirth of a Legend
Load those docks, soldiers! Made for the 2013 MOCathlon contest, Eurobricks user Legonardo redesigns the beloved LEGO Pirate set 6277 Imperial Trading Post. Keeping the classic feel, but making use of new techniques, he creates a new image of the set for fans everywhere.

The dog won't help you.
TheBrickAvenger has taken it upon himself to recreate some Playmobile sets in LEGO form. This is his second set and it came out looking at least ten times better than the source material. I especially like the look of the prison walls where he has mixed plates and tiles to give it a real stone feel, as well as the mixing in of a few darker pieces to break up the solid color a bit. Check out the rest of the pictures on the forum, and you'll see the prison has a moving door and the great details on the dock too.

Look out Bluecoats!
What's better than one average sized Redcoat? Well a Bluecoat might say a dead one is better, but one might also say that a big Redcoat is better. Kerntechniker has sculpted this towering colossus of a Redcoat. The height, shaping, and details on this statue are great.

Imperial Trading Post Redux... Redux...
This is not just another ForbiddenCove.com Jolly Roger Contest entry, this is a beautiful re-imagining of a classic pirate set. Peter deYeule's version of the classic set really does feel like a place where merchants bring their wares. The highlights of Peter's version include a light house on the tiled docks, two well built cranes and a great, updated trading ship.

Look at those great minifigs!
Eurobricks member TheBrickAvenger may forever change our opinion on "fleshies". Using minifigure parts from LEGO® Prince of Persia™ and LEGO® Pirates of the Caribbean™ lines makes the detailed characters in this action sequence superb. The minifigures, interesting angles of the base and building backdrop as well as TheBrickAvenger's excellent photography skills make this a scene worth checking out.

Flex tube arms, a SNOT wall, an interesting bird and more!
This MOC may seem quite small and easy to you. But think again, because Eurobricks member Brickdoctor accompanies his photographs with a rather long and interesting story about the used techniques. This creation can be very inspirational to people with a small number of LEGOs and great ideas.

A well-defended fortress.
A new and impressive fortress has been made by Eurobricks member Bjornu. It sure pays honour to the Dutch admiral Michiel de Ruyter, with a harbour, cannons and strong walls. And it's filled with soldiers!

Pretty impressive, isn't it?
As you may remember from our previous blog entries (here, here and here), Classic-Pirates.com and Eurobricks user ZCerberus has been working (for over a year now!) on an enormous MOC ship called the Phantom MkII.
Recently he's posted some more updates, including pictures of the bow. This ship is going to be a masterpiece when it's finished!
