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.

Modular Bastion.
Hold the fort, men! Inspired by the classic 1989 LEGO Pirates set 6276 Eldorado Fortress, Eurobricks Root Admin Bonaparte creates this awesome stronghold. Though still a WIP creation, he already makes use of iconic, design, rockwork, and modularity to show the potential and boldness this MOC will hold.

Boom goes the dynamite!
A little birdy told me the redcoats may soon be seeking some retribution. There is no faster path to revenge than a big old explosion. Horry does an awesome job of capturing a MOC that looks like it is in mid explosion! I am especially fond of the smoke and the way the building is flying apart.

A Rock and a Hard Place
MrBrick&BoB brings us his latest creation, from Germany. The rocky island of New Providence holds this magnificent outpost. It's diffcult to appreciate the real beauty of this build in a small photo like the one here on the blog. The rock work is some of the best I've seen with natural erosion patterns including an archway. The real majesty though is in the texture of the outpost itself. It looks as though it's been beaten by the salty wind and waves, yet stands strong against the storms to protect the soldiers inside. You won't want to miss the detailed close-up photos of the fort and the soldiers arriving by boat across the choppy waters.

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.

A peaceful fortress in the Caribbean
Eurobricks member Darth Yogi surprised the Pirate forum a while ago by posting this fantastic fortress, Le Sans Fin! It features a gold safe under the rocks, and the buildings have an interior, and on top of that it's a decent fort which could withstand a siege at ease.
Time for you to discuss Le Sans Fin by Darth Yogi in the forum!
"It's a mythological creature, I can calls it what I wants!"
How many Krakens can this site possibly post? We will never reach our limit if they look as good as this Kraken made by Eurobricks member Ecclesiastes. Ecclesiastes' Kraken decides it has had enough ship demolition for the day and decides to take the fight to the soldiers' home. The obvious highlight here is the Kraken made mostly out of castle helmets, but don't overlook the cannon made from the helmets either!
Kraken proof your ships, then discuss Kraken Attack by Ecclesiastes in the forum.
The famous battle of Waterloo
TheBrickAvenger has been recreating famous battles of the past for a few weeks now. Today he brings us the battle of Waterloo fought at the farm of La Haye Sainte. The point of view is great and you really need to look into the details.
