Space Pirates

Here is Captain Strongarm, one of the most feared space pirates in the galaxy. He lost an arm and a leg in battle, and decided to replace them with improved robotic versions. His robotic arm is stronger and has blade, mini-cannon, double-barrel shotgun and compass attachments. He also wields a RT nova claymore.
Image
Here are some of his crewmen. From left to right they his skipper, Voodoo Jim, who has magic powers and wields the ghost dagger, which can cut through almost anything; Deadeye Tom, a sniper with a cybernetic eye; Gentleman Jack, a former Britannian rocketeer who is now Captain Strongarm's first mate; Gurta Grindsaw, a space ork who enjoys blasting her enemies full of holes almost as much as carving them up with her autosaws; and Francisco Roboto, Strongarm's robotic navigator and translator.
Image
Here are the expendable crewmen, with the marginally less expendable crewmen wearing power armor.
Image
Image
Strongarm's frigate, the Event Horizon, which gets its name because when it arrives, there is no escape.
Image
The Event Horizon has a battery of 3 laser cannons per side. It's also got two rocket launchers in the front, as well as a rotating 6" railgun turret.
Image
The back of the ship. You can see the engines and the captain's quarters.
Image
The ship also has three large engines for vertical propulsion.
Image
The masts lift off for access to the lower deck.
Image
Image
Here you see crewmen manning the ship's cannons. The chests hold their weapons.
Image
Image
Image
The bridge lifts off for access to the captain's quarters.
Image
The captain's quarters also lift off for access to the engine room.
Image
The Event Horizon also has a small skiff for boarding and landing.
Image
To the inhabitants of the galaxy: consider yourselves warned!

I voted for Gurta Grindsaw: having an orc, and more than that a female orc as one of your top lieutenants is seriously badass. I also like the double buzz saws as backup weapons.
Brik World: see what it is like in The Third World. Brik Wars get's taken to strange new places, where there is more to war than just the fighting. Ask me about it some time...

Holy shit. I once made a weird steam punky ship out of my friend's lego and ultimately had to disassemble it to make the proper sets, but I took pics, and it was before I played Brikwars, I just had an idea... but it wasn't half as good as yours. I love this, the characters and that ship are amazing.

Just needs dusting. Does compressed air help with dusty Lego models? :omnom:

It spent several years collecting dust as a regular pirate ship. I just looked at it recently and decided to do something else with it.

I have to admit the space pirate look is the best and I am also striving to do so with my cyberskullz.
