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.

Raise the anchor and set sail! We’re going back to the first year of LEGO Pirates: 1989! We now have a number of scans of Bricks ‘N Pieces, the official magazine of the UK LEGO Club. It contains a small LEGO model of HMS Victory, a comic, a LEGO eye-patch and much more. After all these years, it’s still fun to take a look!

Galleon: Annaconna by qwarek7

The Annaconna.

It doesn’t have an interior or kitchen yet, but outside of that the Annaconna is already a very seaworthy vessel. This beautiful LDD-model was made by Eurobricks member qwarek7. This ship has a nice stern and a very subtle but realistic colourscheme. An excellent example of a LEGO galleon.

Where the Imperial Flagship makes birth

With more blue base plates than you can shake a fist at, the Port for the Imperial Flagship is a LEGO masterpiece. Built around the Imperial Flagship, this MOC has so many details and some very clever building techniques.  I always say the devil is in the details, and there are lots of little devils running around this MOC.

The first Spaniards in America.

Eurobricks member Alibabo has made a very decent MOC of one of the most famous events in world history: the discovery of America by Columbus in 1492. With a great ship, some tropical plants and of course a number of conquistadores this creation seems pretty complete.

Retreat from Russia by TheBrickAvenger

Friday, August 19th, 2011

Fall back, fall back!!!

It’s cold and we are out numbered, what do we do? RETREAT! That was the feeling in 1812 when Napoleons Army was forced to retreat due to incredibly cold temperatures in Russia. There is a sense of feeling in this MOC as the remaining soldiers are desperately trying to make it to safety, not all of them are going to make it.

Full Barrel Tavern by evildead

That's where all the Rum has gone!

evildead has created the thing all Pirates want most, a Tavern. This will be especially helpful for those so drunk they don’t know what they are looking for, since this one looks like a Rum Barrel. The technique is clever and done very well, it’s worth a look.

The Princess Ceinwyn by Derfel Cardarn

The Princess Ceinwyn is here, bring on the Pearl

If you read our blog, you know who Derfel Cardarn is, a master of MOC building, although usually he creates stunning land based creations. There is a first time for everything and Derfel hit this out of the park. From the rigging, to the platform to the details that you must see, this is one beautiful ship.
