A nice building with a good amount of detail.

Finally, after 4 months of waiting, Eurobricks member ZCerberus surprises us again with 2 excellent buildings for his mammoth project called Fort Brighton East. The lattice work and the windows are nice and remember that the author has a couple ideas for a couple of -even more- extravagant models.

Pirates of the Caribbean Window Display

Horry has discovered an amazing window display built by flickr user Legoagogo.  The details of this build are a bit of a mystery, all we know is it was built as an advertisement for the LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean video game that came out earlier this year.  It’s a site to be seen!

The Hippo

Our News Scout Horry has been busy finding LEGO Pirate creations for us to share with you. Today he brings us “The Hippo”. Little is known about this ship, but I can see where it gets its name. The rigging is  nicely done on this ship as is the custom sail.

Strong and fast!

When he saw he didn’t need the top part of the new LEGO hulls, Eurobricks member Sebeus Iniwum started on what was to become this excellent creation. It’s a strong ship, with a nice colourscheme, a clever new technique on the stem and lots of fine details.

Beautiful, and slightly bigger than the Imperial Flagship

A well-armed vessel with a nice colourscheme and some beautiful decorations. That’s The Golden Stallion in short. Eurobricks member Dreamweb took the challenge of building a ship on the notorious 4+ hull, and made an excellent creation out of it. It may not be very realistic, but it’s full of nice details in both interior and exterior.

It's not a bad life for the Red Coats - an island-based LEGO MOC by - Spark -

A Red Coat's life for me!

Classic-Pirates.com user – Spark – is trying to prove to all of us why it’s a good idea to become a Red Coat soldier – and he does it with his new MOC. Relaxing on the beach, drinking rum, swimming in the sea – what else could you possibly want? Just remember – your actual experience may differ!
