    Villiage of Urk'cape

    I've been trying to use those microfigs for something too. I originally just had them jousting on pigs, but then that entire idea fell apart. I'm glad to see somebody is able to utilize the microfigs extremely well. :) I love the shudders in window arch piece as doors, way more creative then I would ever be. :) Great job and I hope you'll continue making great MOCs.
  2. I'm afraid I am not an inter-dimensional being that preys upon young children, "The Penguin" :)

  3. is preparing for a voyage to Skyloft!

  4. You aren't by any chance, Mr. Bob Gray?!

  5. That ctulhuloid is quite the looker.

    Historical stimulus package

    Just something that popped into my head; An detailed index of all of the LEGO factions to the present day? There's a short index over at Classic-Castle that pretty much covered most in a not so detailed manner. However, the index here could include all of the factions, all of the minifiguresm and what sets came with them. Does that sound like a good idea to anybody else besides me? this is one of my "early morning" ideas.

    A Guide to building a Medieval Village

    Can't wait. While I've got the rest of the main staples for villages down (I think. ) I could never get landscaping the way I'd like to. I'll be sure to check back on this thread for your views on such a difficult (at least for me) part of the MOC.

    MOC: Medieval Lighthouse

    That shield is absolutely beautiful. Not to mention everything else is fantastic as well. Keep up the great work.
  9. I agree. A medieval Middle Eastern theme would be a nice change. Gives the Crusaders an official enemy. But I too see the difficulties in that. While historical, it seems like a very difficult theme to properly show without controversy.

    The Lego Black Falcon Sets 1984-1992

    All of these articles are excellent! And I too was surprised that you got two posts out in just a few days, but it was well worth the read. Keep up the excellent work.

    Your first minifigure?

    Those two were my first minifigures. Your opening post saves me the time of finding them, thanks.
  12. Well, standard infantry wore what they could afford. Whether they were extremely poor and had just the clothes on their back, or they were a somewhat rich farmer who could afford a hauberk, they wore what they had. Surcoats were mostly used by knights (who are far richer and noble than mere peasants) but if a peasant had the money, who was stopping him? :) I feel it's fitting to mention that my army and Castle world is based off of what a 12th century world would look like. Meaning that the only helmets I use are the Nasal Helm, the Kettle helm, an (if I had any) the bullet helm. Granted the Great Helm was created around the end of the 12th century, my Castle world is during the early-to-mid 12th century. And for the torso with "only the surcoat" if you look under the newer versions (Kingdoms, but I believe the Crownie's surcoat had this too) you can see that they indeed are wearing chainmail underneath it. :)

    How many factions in your kingdom?

    Currently, only 2 main factions, but that is subject to change. The knights of Oland (Dragon Kingdom) and the knights of Gents (Lion Kingdom). However, I do have 2 or 3 Crownies lying about, they could become their own faction if I ever get more of them. And of course when new factions are released, those will be pulled into the world alongside the current ones. :)

    Return of the Black Falcons

    I really like that "archer" design. Very well done. Fits in perfectly with the current Kingdoms line. :)

    Luth Keep

    Yes, there are more photos on the Brickshelf. At the time though, it was kind of hard for me to take good photos, I had to deal with the rest of my worktable at the same time making sure this wasn't going to fall off. Thank you for the comment. :)
