Lego pirate fantasy series.
A delighted child climbs up to reach a magical pirate sword he found in a trunk in the attic, after using a Lego brick-built hand truck in the previous photo to move some cardboard boxes into place so he could reach it.
I think young children can relate to his plight as well as his ingenuity (as can I, being under five feet tall). He wears a homemade newspaper pirate hat, more signs of his creativity and imagination.
This series of fantasy pirate themed art will look great in your child's bedroom or playroom, but AFOLS (Adult Fans of Lego) will enjoy it too. The photographs can be hung as a series or as individual art.
The impetus for the story was a pirate challenge in an AFOL photography group, which I joined a little over a year ago. At 30 or 60, or 90, you can still be young at heart.
Having given all my daughter's Legos to my grandson, I have built my collection from scratch, with a couple of Lego sets, some loose bricks and Lego minifigure parts, but no official Lego pirate paraphernalia. So I used a scrap of newspaper to make a pirate hat for this cute little guy, instantly turning him into a pirate!
I luckily found some dollhouse furniture and a Playmobil sword among the old toys in my attic. I was surprised that Lego minifigures were so much smaller than the Playmobil toys! Good thing Lego hands have some flexibility! I think that the oversized sword works well here. The room is a mix of Lego and other toys, with homemade bits such as the newspaper hat, boxes, and a bit cut off a Lego box used as a toy box in the container on the left, a nod to my new hobby.
I hope you enjoy this little story. His hat may be paper, his sword oversized, but he is a true pirate adventurer at heart!
