Superb Steamship by BrickShelf user grubaluk

Hello CC!

I was just browsing Brickshelf and noticed this.
I was interested in the wake built into the ship,
but was very pleasantly surprised when I finally saw the big pics!

Take a look for yourself.


Most notable are the superb SNOT deck and roofs,
however the whole thing is very easy on the eyes too!

edit: He mostly dabbles with LCAD it seems, but take a look at the rest of his stuff too! Some nice stuff in this gallery.
in His grip, Chris

Actually, he builds everything first and then CADs it. His stuff is awesome.

Wow! This ship is extremely cool. I especially like the wooden planking effect (although, as mentioned in the captions, it's not particularly realistic). For some reason when I saw this my mind immediately went to the ship that Indiana Jones traveled aboard in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I also love the Bus:

My first thought was "Where is Jack Black and when do they get to Kong's Island?" :D

While this MOC is really quite brilliant, the thing that really catches my eye is the water at the base - that's a great idea

It is amazing what you will find by just browsing Brickshelf.

This steamship has so much detail and playability that I absolutely love it I think that steamship has been created extremely well with Lego. It reminds a lot of the ship belonging to Captain Haddock from the Tintin comic books. – My imaginative mind is running overtime with the possible story-lines and situations I can put this steamship into.

Very, very nice indeed.

Reminds me a bit of Titanic...

Very good, but that bus is perfect! Look at the detail :shock:

Both the ship and the bus are very well comstructed, and are visually pleasing. They are great creations.
