Defending the Fort at Isla D’Or

I recently finished re-reading Treasure Island for the first time in more than twenty years, and went looking for some Pirate LEGO to blog. Rod Gillies (2 Much Caffeine) was happy to oblige, with his many entries for the Jolly Roger Contest over at Forbidden Cove.

I particularly like the light blue water accenting the shore and boat in this little diorama:
