You should definitely keep the retro Lego aesthetic. It works so well with the pirates theme! A white fortress and then a small town and harbour would look great together with this.
@@SaulGoodman313 With the moc already, I really want to see waves around the pirate ship and the dolphins. No way the water would be that calm. If he used a similar building technique as his Lego city diving people I think it would look really good.
As a fellow pirate ship enthusiast, here's a tip: the flags should be waving towards the front of the ship if it is sailing. The wind would be blowing in the direction the ship is moving, so the flags would be blown the other direction. VERY good looking rigging; it really brings the whole build together!
The two flag on the top of the pirateship should be turn 180 degree because the wind comes from behind otherwise the ship can't move. Everything else is perfect!!
Is that true though? A ship can sail in winds coming at it from the front. Maybe they would need to be reconfigured? EDIT - you said flag but I read sail!
@@NittanyNation22 Since large sail ships use wind to propel them forward, the flags are also affected by the same wind, pointing them forward. It is much easier for the wind to move the flags forward, than to push an entire ship (using the sails), so the flags will almost always point forward. If the ship used a motor or something, then the flag would most likely point backwards (as the ship is being pushed "into" the wind, not "with" the wind). As sailboat modeling is a classic hobby, this has become common knowledge among the hobbyists. edit: If the ship was sailing towards the wind, the sails would be down. Otherwise the wind would start carrying the ship backwards.
Love that you bring back another classic theme! For the palm trees: maybe you can use those ugly bottom pieces by levelling it with one layer and cover it up by a top layer?
The net building technique is absurd! I love it! And that pirate ship is awesome. All the little ropes add a lot of life and realism. Congrats on the exhibition!
Absolutely fantastic! I love it! One thing I wish you would try in this and your city is making your water more dimensional. It's always so flat, which makes the water feel pretty lifeless and still. I wish there were more rolling waves and contours to it.
A pirate island is such a cool idea. The pirate ship is one of the best Lego ships I’ve ever seen. Idk what else is planned if the Pirate Bay will be quadrupled, but a small navy sloop shadowing the pirates or a grounded shipwreck would be cool additions
Seeing the moc and then the background is amazing. I was so confused for a second thinking it was a wall painting before I realized those mountains were real 11:27
the pirate cutlass pieces always make me nostalgic. when i was a kid i got a big bin of random legos from my uncle and it had a ton of cutlasses and monkeys in it and i remember doing a ton of fun stories with my pirate monkeys 😄
You won't believe how many times I smiled during the video... The building techniques, the theming of the island, the ship, the gondola, the mountains,.... I'm so happy for you! This all look amazing, and I hope to continue seeing where all of this takes you. Great job!
@@EugeneMorgan-nj4qyI'm not exactly sure but regular PVA glue should work just fine. Its water soluble so if you ever needed to get it off you could just let the glue peices soak in a bucket of water for a bit and the glue would soften up enough to remove
I would replace a few of the water tiles around the dolphins with white tiles to give the idea that they’re jumping out of the water and it doesn’t look so flat there.
There's nothing more appropriate for a snowy ski setting than a tropical island. Well done. Pirates is a MOC theme I would love to explore more, as it fits alongside my favourite theme, mediaeval, very effectively.
If you glue anything, you should use hot glue whenever possible. It'll add enough stability and 'sticking power' for most usecases while having a low enough melting point that you could use a hair dryer on the lowest setting to pull it up without any pieces around it getting damaged and without any residue being left.
Small suggestions; you could secure the palm trees in a 2x2 plate with a hole in the middle and a technic pin. The treasure being dug up might be more recognisable and be a cool detail if you could make the hole deeper so the whole chest could be there, slightly open, showing some gold or other.
I love the net building technique. I thought for a second you were going to make a giant hill out of them because it creates such a smooth gradient. Maybe one day!😂
Congratulations! I’m glad you got picked to show off your MOC! Your building style is incredible and extremely detailed! Looking forward to seeing more city updates in the future too!
A pirate bay area!!! Holy moly this makes me so happy!! 🤩 I do think the ship could use a different color than yellow, it's a bit too strong. But otherwise it just looks amazing!!
Finding innovative new ways to torture yourself with massive 1x1 builds as always! If you don't like the look of the palm bases you can "bury" them in the sand by a plate and then use angled plates to mostly cover them. Or I think a peg or Technic pin or something would fit in the center, which you could then attach more securely?
Awesome new project! Quick question, would you consider a LEGO Icons Castle System-style table/project next? (Think: Lion Knight’s Castle and Medieval Town Square style MOCs?) P.S. Castle fans upvote plz
OMG! You are sooo talented, have an extremely vivid imagination and a good voice, it is all just wonderful to watch. I actually consider this now my happy show.....Just like a child, happy, happy, happy!!! Keep the wonderful building adventures and stories going. I will be a subscriber for life, LOL!! Love the net webbing technique.... very shifty of you.
Amazing bloody video, this is just ethereal and incredible. Your skiing is really professional and how you brought your moc up on a ski lift to a convention was nuts.
When you first started with the nets, I wasn't sure what you were going for, but the end result looked great. We sometimes underestimate how just slight angles make things look way more interesting.
Ahoy-yee-mateys! Love the pirate theme. That ship and island are awesome. But wouldn't expect anything less from you as all your builds are fantastic. Thanks for the mini trip up the mountain too!
oh I *adore* this, I really want lego to bring back their pirates theme and that ship is gorgeous. I really hope to see more lego sailing ships to populate the bay! I also really like how the ship you have now looks very early age of sail, very 1600s-y with that big quarterdeck and the forecastle, along with that spritsail.
you should put some white or see through one by ones around the base of the boats to creat a wave effect, the water looks very flat. The island and ship are amazing, the depth effect is very clever but could be emphasised with some white wave effects.
That island looked really good! You did an excellent job! I do think the net building technique did not add much in this case, but maybe if I saw it in person, I'd feel differently. It's hard to fully appreciate all the detail in a video like this.
Love the island build, your techniques always blow me away! And If at all possible, I'd love to see either a minifigure or other reference to Edward Kenway from Assassin's Creed 4!
So cool, and good job! I bet you're on cloud 9... or at least on the top of a mountain... right about now. Such a cool honor and privilege and you absolutely crushed it!
I love the size of this build, the huge ship perfectly contrasting the small island. I also love the brick sails, they look so much better than the fabric ones. Do you have maybe some storry about the pirates? How did they get to the island, when, for how long have they been there, what are they doing there, etc.?
Just a suggestion, if you do have to glue anything, glue it using a low-temp "foam safe" hot glue gun like the one from Woodland Scenics. Hot glue is super easy to undo afterwards and the lower temps won't damage the bricks.
Due to determination of our kids, We have extended our Sudtyrol vacation and went to Iscgl to see your lego creation. It was more than worthed! Hopefully next time we can visit you in Insbruck.
Can someone explain the point of the net? Why did he put that net structure on the island? It seems as though it got buried under other pieces. What was the purpose?
There's got to be a way to use the base of the palm trees but cover it. I had a couple pirate sets with those things, I didn't realize they were discontinued! So pricy! It looks like you had about as cool a day as anyone could up on the mountain. Congrats on being featured, you deserve it!
About the palm trees: Lego Technic has plates with holes between the studs, right where the tree segment attaches, and the segments have holes capable of holding a Technic axle at their bottom (or at least some do; I'm not sure which type of tree segment you have). That's your root right there, but you'd of course need to cover the rest of the holes with vegetation.
I believe the bottom of the palm tree pieces can be attached to a technic axle. You could potentially use modified plates that can hold a vertical axle, and attach the trees to them. Please, anything but glue!
Lego and a 330, only getting better my man :-), keep having fun. I absolutely love how you get to do the things you re passionate about here close to home in europe.
When I was eight, I was desperate for the Lego Pirate ship, but it was a lot of money, we couldn't afford it. The one they have now is rubbish by comparison. This is magnificent ❤❤❤❤

hard agree! that net tech was mental lol
fr that boat was crazy
A fellow man of culture I see; may the superflat continue for the next 10 years
how did you find this channel
He is also a person
I can’t imagine anything more fierce than a germanic Lego competition.
On top of a mountain, no less.

How about a Danish Lego competition!!!...Mike drop!
You should definitely keep the retro Lego aesthetic. It works so well with the pirates theme!
A white fortress and then a small town and harbour would look great together with this.
I would really love to see either a small town/harbour or two ships battling it out nearby.
OMG YES. something inspired by the original eldorado fortress set would be SO FITTING

The flag on the bowsprit aswell
Is that true though? A ship can sail in winds coming at it from the front. Maybe they would need to be reconfigured? EDIT - you said flag but I read sail!
But when the ship is moving the flags would flow behind because of the air the ship is moving through
@@mouseyender Rewatching the video, I now don't think I understand what Tauverde is saying. Is that poster saying the top 2 are backwards?

The different shades of brown under the water really add to the perceived depth!
Awesome building as always!

Definitely add a bow wave to the ship- it looks odd without it
I've been watching every video for almost two years and I haven't got bored once. Your videos are great!

I do not envy how mind numbing some of those building techniques took. The build looks incredible though well worth all those small designs
The only true mind numbing part is installing 10,000 1x1 plates 😂
I was awestruck watching this! The island looks great and the ship was simply magnificent. Loved every minute of it.
Ohhh yesssss finally a new episode !!!
Oh bummer, I was hoping for a medieval layout, but this is the next best option! Can't wait to see how this progresses!
Castle is coming soon too :)
@@Brick_CraftsYEESS
@@Brick_CraftsJaaaaaaaaaaaaa! ich bin so fröhlich, dass ich das gehoren habe!
SPACE?
Wow wow wow wow what an amazing video.....and wow the island is simply stunning I love the water technique and the sand technique wow!!!!
Use a plate with a hole and a bar to hold the palm trees up better.
Yes or just use the original bases as it is part of the aesthetic of Lego.
That is a fantastic looking sand effect for the path!
And the palmtrees are looking crazy good as well
You won't believe how many times I smiled during the video... The building techniques, the theming of the island, the ship, the gondola, the mountains,.... I'm so happy for you! This all look amazing, and I hope to continue seeing where all of this takes you. Great job!
For future use: There is a glue that can be used on Lego that washes off.
What like bro
What glue
@@EugeneMorgan-nj4qyI'm not exactly sure but regular PVA glue should work just fine. Its water soluble so if you ever needed to get it off you could just let the glue peices soak in a bucket of water for a bit and the glue would soften up enough to remove

The island would look cool with a skeleton pirate or make the island up a little up
Now that I know you love skiing, you definitely need to add a ski slope (resort?) to your city build!
Also looking forward to more pirate MOC!
I can't get over how the wood in the hull of the ship looks. It looks very organic and textured. The whole mockup has this quality too. Amazing work!
There's nothing more appropriate for a snowy ski setting than a tropical island. Well done.
Pirates is a MOC theme I would love to explore more, as it fits alongside my favourite theme, mediaeval, very effectively.
I watched the German version of this because it came out earlier and it is just gorgeous. I am glad I can understand what you are saying now though!
The German Videos will always be uploaded earlier then the English ones, since the German Channel is his "main" channel
What a cool place for a Lego exhibition.
Pardon the pun, it probably wasn't intentional, or was it?

A pirate bay area!!! Holy moly this makes me so happy!! 🤩 I do think the ship could use a different color than yellow, it's a bit too strong. But otherwise it just looks amazing!!
I love how your water actually reflects the ship!!!!
I think that it would be a nice idea to use smooth light sand colour tiles for the beach right near the water to make the effect of smooth wet sand

You are far and away the best builder I've seen. Just seriously cool.
Next to the hole the pirates are digging shoud be heaps of sand from the digging ;)
dude i couldn't be more excited that you're doing a pirate island, i'm obsessed with pirates
Wow! I cannot wait to see how this moc expands- I love the retro Lego Pirate and Knights themes. So cool!
Awesome new project! Quick question, would you consider a LEGO Icons Castle System-style table/project next? (Think: Lion Knight’s Castle and Medieval Town Square style MOCs?)
P.S. Castle fans upvote plz
Fantastic! I always learn new techniques with your channel. That’s amazing that you were able to participate in a show on top of a mountain.
i think swapping the yellow for pearl gold would look incredible, i do like the yellow though
Awesome MOC, and it looks like you had a fantastic time! So cool that you got to do that. Cheers from the United States and keep building, friend!
Can't wait to see what this guy does with the Castle theme.
by far one of my favourite themes and it looks great with your building style! super excited to see more of this

That's a great MOC. I especially liked the brilliant building techniques to achieved all those curves on the pirate ship!
Nice to see something different. That ship is outta this world! =3
The path and general topography are so cool looking!! Definitely worth the extra effort. 😁

Gold would look really Nice on the ship
I love that life-sized hiker CMF at the ski resort. I bet it really complemented your and others' builds.
Guess you could say that the path had a 'net' game.😁
You should send this ship design to Lego ideas, make it a real Seth would be good😮

So cool, and good job! I bet you're on cloud 9... or at least on the top of a mountain... right about now. Such a cool honor and privilege and you absolutely crushed it!
the stopped ships usually have the sails collected bc if you have the sails extended or in a position that have wind to them, the ship moves forward
Fantastic video . Step by step, all the details of your impressive Lego project. We love the pirate theme. Congratulations for all your work!!! 👏👏👏
Is this going to be a series if it is it would be really cool
Awesome! Congrats on the tv interview! Look forward to all that is to come in the future!

Never thought I’d enjoy a non-town update video so much. This was great.

Great MOC, by the way. That net technique is insane.
Gorgeous stuff, learned new palm tree top technique, strongly prefer pearl gold for the pirate ship.
For the boat you could add water bricks attached to the bottom adding a wave effects
The layering effect for the water and the beach looks amazing,
Congratulations! This is so cool! You do great work and I'm glad to see you getting some real-world recognition!
the net building technique is so good for terrain - but very expensive...it's great for water effects!
The island alone is so impressive considering how you take bricks and turn them into something so organic!
