| I love cross polinating from theme to theme, and since the paradisa theme has some great "female" (quite sterotypical) features, I always go there when I'm looking for detail ideals. I also use several belville and scala implements, I hope that Lego (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jun-01, to lugnet.pirates)

I was looking for a way to make some "respectable" ladies for the town (lego seems to think one wench, who I happen to adore in all of her disrepute, is enough woman (...)

| Hi Jon!! Your city is awesome, it's packed with details. I love all the little things, the market especially. Very nice. And I second the call for an overhead shot! -Shiri (23 years ago, 1-Jun-01, to lugnet.pirates)

| This is really great Jon. The whole town is full of character. The only other thing I would like to see is an overhead shot, to get an idea of the layout. Also maybe a little more detail of the individual buildings. Well anyhow, it looks great, (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Where's Zorro? :-) Bruce Oh, I believe brick fortresses stood up better to cannon balls. Gave (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.pirates)

| Hey Jon, Very Nice! I like the looks of it! You captured a nice Spanish feel to it. It's a good inspiration for the pirate island I'm working on. Keep up the nice work! Also, some more pics would be nice! Especially of the state house and the fort. (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.pirates)
