Vdog Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 Ahoy, Me Hearties! Allow me to introduce Pirate Island Hideaway, the perfect tropical island for a pirate on the run to store their ill gotten treasure. The island is a small rocky outcrop in the shape of a skull, there is a very large palm tree in the middle of the island, and the remains of a shipwreck on the beach. Atop the island is a hut, that conceals the canon used to protect the treasure. Inside the rocky outcrop is a cave, that is hidden behind a false rock wall. The cave is large enough to hide the pirates rowboat and treasure chest. This island is covered in plants, and is also home to nesting birds, and surrounded by sea life. Whether you are young or old, the Pirate Island Hideaway is a fun small set, that combines play elements, and a reminiscent design that will look great on display on your shelf or desk.The island measures 56 studs wide, 24 studs deep. I designed this set and the instructions , digitally using Bricklink's studio 2.0 program. While most of the Pirate sets on Lego Ideas are large and beautiful, they are often massive sets that if ever produced would be cost prohibitive. I wanted to build something modern that payed homage to the great small pirate sets of my childhood, but was still affordable so future generations could enjoy playing pirates with Lego. http://bit.ly/3XXfoy7 https://ideas.lego.com/projects/c88778e4-c440-496a-a011-449fe76fd0c9 SUPPORT NOW! https://ideas.lego.com/projects/c88778e4-c440-496a-a011-449fe76fd0c9 Thank ye for checking out this creation!

Yperio_Bricks Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 Nice little playset! I like the skull and cannon emplacement. But my favorite part is the other side of the island with the buried ship frames! The palm tree trunk looks a bit too thick imo. Quote

The trunk is thick as I wanted the palm to look old and hold lots of leaves without topping over. A round brick that is in between a 1x1 and this 2x2 would be ideal. Quote
