POTC Scene!
In his latest MOC, Eurobricks member "LL" has created an iconic scene from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Packed full of interesting parts usage, excellent building techniques, and a forced perspective, this MOC captures the scene perfectly!

Not so rickety fort.
Courtesy of the_real_punch, here is very nice upgrade to the classic pirate set 6267 Lagoon Lock-Up. As well as finishing and strengthening the fort with more modern build techniques, the addition of a snot base gives a clean look to the build. There are just enough details in the surroundings to tie the whole scene together and not complicate it.

Make sure to get my good side, lads!
Jalkow has created this scurvy-looking scoundrel for a contest at Forbiddencove, but was kind enough to share it with us nonetheless! The red crowbars make for a very shaggy beard and the minifig torsos create a nice raised-eyebrow effect. Looks like he's already planning his next looting!

Spruce Up Your Room
Simply detailed. Adding these furniture items to an Officer's cabin is a great final touch to a ship or even as part of a vignette or comic scene. It's great how WesVDell has created some iconic furniture and kept it in a nice minifig scale without looking bulky or out of place.

Ahoy there!
Erik Carlson constructed a custom made LEGO Pirate costume. The craftsmanship is wonderful even if it isn't made out LEGO bricks.

Ye be warned, Pirates!
Sir Nadroj built this great scene from the first Pirates of the Caribbean film during his time working with the LEGO group. The rock work, water, and minifigures make me wish this was a real set.

The Spyglass
Matthew Hurt constructed a small inn based off the one in Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. The details include great woodwork, a clever "spyglass" sign, and the classic ship wheel piece that looks great almost anywhere.
