Disco86 Posted December 19, 2014 This is my 5th entry to the Colossal Castle Contest - Category: Castle Siege This is a scene from the Lord of the Rings. The armies of Mordor are attacking the city of Minas Tirith. They are using the battering ram named Grond to break through the main gate. It is shaped like a wolf's head and enchanted with black magic. I hope you enjoy, thanks for C&C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Greeble Posted December 19, 2014 Is that your sig fig in the wall? This is really great, middle-earth mocs are always welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Regenerate builder Posted December 19, 2014 Nice job Disco86! This is a very cool scene and good little representation from lotr. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slegengr Posted December 19, 2014 Great build, Disco! The wall and Grond do not seem to be quite large enough for minifigure scale, but both are excellently done! I particularly like the way you did the gate and the incorporation of the sand green pieces representative of what seems in the film to be a copper overlay on the door. The battle is perfectly chaotic, with everyone in action and disrepair on the wall from the battle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickTamland Posted December 19, 2014 Nice work, Grond is great, I especially love the attention to detail on the top of the wall, and the doors are just brilliant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted December 19, 2014 This is great. Grond has come to life in our world of bricks. Just to praise one more element: Excellent work on the doors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Balbo Posted December 20, 2014 Amazing work, Disco . I really love all your Middle Earth creations! Your Siege of Minas Tirith Moc looks fantastic! The techniques for Grond are very nice and it looks very accurate. Furthermore I also like the front gate with the lime green, green and the statues. The white walls with the dark bluish gray elements look stunning, too . Good luck for the contest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Disco86 Posted January 4, 2015 Great thanks to all of you for commenting some nice words. Looking forward to this years LotR builds Is that your sig fig in the wall? Yes he is, forgot to place him in even more MOCs this year... but the middle earth scene made his appearance inevitable The wall and Grond do not seem to be quite large enough for minifigure scale, You are right, both have to be larger. But the size limit in the contest was 48x48, even the shrinked versions are too big for the plate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
