I love this! The shipwreck is awesome... you really made it look 1/2 ship and 1/2 decay... not necessarily an easy task with bricks. I seriously love (and saved to my computer) the huge water/wind funnel... would love to see more pics about how you made that and what it looks like.

Very well done!

love it. Looks like something you'd see in the bottom of a fish tank. Hey, you know what would be cool? You should make a fish tank out of lego, complete with rock works, colored pabbels, fish, etc. all made out of lego!

Thank you, not really any pictures of how (though it's somewhat simple) but there are more shots on flickr if you haven't checked ;) .

I really like the colors in this. Awesome job. It feels like a Little Mermaid fig should be peeking out from inside it. :)

I recognise all the LEGO pieces in that scene, but the colour usage is so vivid and realistic--and so far from the colour-schemes of most MOCs that it almost doesn't look LEGO. I love the bold use of regular, old-fashioned green! Besides the colour, the best element here is the shape of the vessel, which does look like it's rotting and slowly collapsing as it does.
