The ultimate shrine from a devoted fan
As part of the Tournament of Retribution II Skalldyr has created this shrine to honour his beloved side in the war, the Redcoats. This MOC has been inspired by ‘Joe Rosenthal’s: Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima’, a similarly styled MOC.

Can the President escape before it's too late?
The war of 1812, the Americans had attacked the Canadians capital and they were out for revenge. Led by British forces, the Canadian forces attacked Washington DC with little American resistance. Chocked full of action and battle, this is one of the most lively ‘Bayonets at Dawn’ entries we have seen.

V3 of the Grandeur is a complete rebuild!
The first time Captain Zuloo first showed us his MOC the ‘Grandeur’, a majestic 28-gun frigate, was early last year. From then it has progressed greatly and has gone through many revisions and total restructures. Now nearly all that is left to complete are the masts and the remaining small details that can ‘make or break’ a MOC. I for one will be following this beautiful ship closely now it’s in the final stages of its build. In the latest update Zuloo has really shown us through his progression how much time and effort it takes to pull off one of these great MOC ships.

The first contest, a skeet tournament
Pirate captains often suffer from ‘Post- war Syndrome’, a long hatred for their enemies. After regular visits to the crazy house the waring captains are given a regime where they are set against each other in a number of contests. Only time will tell to see if these contests really work out, or if they’ll just increase the tension.

The crimson red rooftops of Puerto de la Cruz are a welcome sight for any Imperial Soldiers. Decked out with a look out tower and armored fortress this port is a fair force to be reckoned with.
The armored fortress declares the port a fair force to be reckoned with
Daniel G’s large MOC ‘Puerto de la Cruz’ is truly fantastic. The gleaming white buildings are compromised with dashes of yellow and red. Many fine details have been added such as bridges, Pirates and many more.

L’Archiveur a mighty ‘Man o’ War’. Once when navigating down the treacherous Eldorado River she was attacked and taken over by the French, could it pirates? Sporting a full 40 guns spread across the ships 3 decks. Ingmar’s attention to deatil has excelled for him on this ship. It features a consistent recognisable colour scheme to enjoy as well as plenty of rigging that swamp the masts and sails for realistic effect. At it’s bow a majestic figure head spouts from a trail of golden guilding at her stern a ornately decorated aft section can be found.
40 canons of crushing
No matter how awesome this ship maybe the inspiration came from somewhere. In this instance it was out very own Classic-Pirates.com. Member Captain Green Hair also know as CGH recently created a wonderful tutorial showcasing the process of building a master class ship. It was a derivation of this tutorial that inspired Ingmar to create this marvellous vessel.
