Pirate Town: Work in Progress

Inspired by the Blood and Plunder Kickstarter, I'm creating at least two period towns, one Spanish and the second for the Brethren  of the Coast. The latter will be highlighted soon as the Club is journeying up to Estes Park for the weekend of 11/16. Here is the preview:
The harbor is located to the right, while I'll be adding shallow water/marsh on the left. Models are 4Ground mostly with some from Sarrissa. The Battle Mat is the Cigar Box Caribbean Waters.
You may notice the growing fleet of ships in the background which will also be highlighted shortly.
The islands and most of the docks etc, are scratch-built, while some are purchased from Ainsty.
All of the models have removable roofs and detailed interiors. The pictured Inn has over 12 rooms and four floors!
Still working on this portion, the white styrofoam will be painted and flocked like the other portions of course.
Close up of previous shot.
View from opposite prospective. from the first photo. The large Tower in upper left is an incredible 4Ground model that is acting as a pirate stronghold and watch tower. 

So I'm planning on posting the finished product when it is assembled in Estes Park. Will also have photos of a major pirate fight as well!
