About this creation
2012 MocAthalon Group Link
Team: The Globetrotters
Category 15. Castaway
Grab your bricks and build a place that you would love to be shipwrecked on!
I believe that this is my largest build to date, this build measures 48x64. If I had to be castaway anywhere, it would definitely be on an island chock full of loot!
It is built upon two 32x32 baseplates and 2 16x32 baseplates. After that I built up the rock work and built a base to sit another 16x32 baseplate inside. The whole island ground is very firm and there is no chance of it collapsing if you press too firmly.
Here is a side view of the creation.
When you're stranded upon Treasure Island, you don't have to cheap out on your distress signs!
The castaway...
TREASURE! Buahahah! :D
It appears that perhaps there was once a civilization here? Hopefully cannibals. Cannibals are more fun. Skull inspired by Sodagoat.
Mr. Bones relaxing. I think the real estate value just plunged...
Banana tree. Similar but different from the banana tree found in a recent Horrible Horace MOC, it was already completely taken apart so I put it back together, although slightly differently... if you want to waste time to figure out how it is different, then be my guest.
The wreck of the shipwreck (yeah, its not even enough to call it a full-blooded shipwreck...)
Yeah...
Did you notice that I took lots of pictures and didn't just let one speak for itself?
The whole cave. Inspired by a cave built by Magma.
Horrible Horace!?!?!
Crab
...
...
Aerial view. I think that if anyone was flying over he would stop for the gold, not for the castaway. :P
Mr. Bones again...
Just to prove that I'm not any less patriotic than Deus, here is my newly designed Israeli flag! :)
Dead Canadian. Don't ask.
Purdy view
Banana tree... again.
SOS!
Thanks for visting Castaway Island! Come back soon...
And thanks for viewing! Please leave your opinions and feedback, I really appreciate it.
Good luck to everyone in the MocAthalon!

AAAAAH how could you have predicted my death in Caleb's town mafia?! Anyway cool MOC the cave is awesome. If I was stranded on a desert island I would want it to be some abandoned automated self sustaining island resort. |

Amazing work Flare, the level of detail, humour and creativity is brilliant. You truly are a genius (At building :P). I really need to shove a dead Canadian in one of my new builds. And things to improve.... hmmmmm hmmmmm...
None at all! |

Really nicely composed scene, well deserving of a high score. I really like the way you've picked out the waves breaking on the coast line. I hope some of that treasure is edible or our castaway won't live long enough to spend it... at least there's a couple of bananas to keep him going! |

But if were a castaway, I'd rather be trapped on an island filled with food, not loot.
Still pretty good, and nice flag! |

Although you did copy many things in this MOC from other builders, you ahve improved many. I thought the flag was a decal, until I tripple-checked it. |
