As you are no doubt aware I have been building my part of our collaborative pirates-themed Blackskull Archipelago build since January, I should be further along by now but I am starting to finally feel like I am finally getting somewhere with it!Since my last progress post I have been working almost exclusively on caves [...]
So building has been underway on my pirates-themed Blackskull Archipelago build for a few months now, and I really should be further along but to tell you the truth I have not been feeling as motivated to build of late. I am happy to say though that whilst I have been working ever so [...]
I mentioned in my last post that I am currently working on a collaborative pirate-themed build, and it is time for some introductions. First of all let me say that we have decided on a name for the collaborative build and it will be called Blackskull Archipelago. The second thing that I wanted to [...]
I have been waiting for quite a few years to announce this project, and the time is finally right! This year I am going to be working together with a group of very talented builders from my local LUG (Bendigo LEGO User Group) on a pirates-themed group build.

My current build, Ice Station Icarus is nearing completion, so this will be the last update! There is not much left to finish, mainly adding more texture through the addition of hundreds of round and quarter round 1x1 tiles, building a couple more rusted cargo containers and placing and making finishing touches where each [...]
