Tomsche Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It`s finished. The first of many projects to hopefully come in the next years, namely to build full display bases for the official Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit sets. Combining the three official sets LEGO released into a single base (Attack on Lake-Town, Lake-Town Chase and the Lake-Town Guard), this make it a just that more nicer way to put them in the cabinets for display. I`m not sure wether to call this a MOC, a MOD or whatelse, so I`m settling on a Display for it`s name hehe. The sets are as said the official ones, on a brick build base and the scenery build seperate, hence the not to sure what to ofcially call it. Hope you like it! Quote
Balbo Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Wow, that's really a great Lake Town display I love the way you integrated the official sets in your diorama. The water with the ice looks very nice, too. Great job! Quote
Tomsche Posted January 16, 2015 Author Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks I`m planning to do it (over the years) for all of the official sets, looks waaaaaay better in the cabinets then just the loose sets side by side and all mixed and matched :-) Quote
Preuss Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Wow, I love how you did the water with floating ice/snow. The land/grass also looks very good, but the water is fantastic! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 The sets are well known, but the integrating factor is the water (as the others have rightfully mentioned before). Water (including ice) is great and creates a very good diorama. Quote
owlbearsforall Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 As others have noted, the water base is great! I love the use of different height bricks around the edge to make it look like you're actually cutting through the lake. Really well done (and now it makes me want to start making displays for my LotR sets...)! Quote
Mazin Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Looks great! I really like the fact that You didn't forget about ice and rocks BTW... am i the only one who thinks that those two sets combined look even better as a single set? I mean, for me personaly, releasing these two together in a bigger box would be far better. Quote
kabel Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 That's a very nice layout you got there. I had a hard time taking those sets apart myself, but hey, I needed the bricks ... Anyway, your pics a bit fuzzy, maybe you should use a tripod to take pics. Quote
Tomsche Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 BTW... am i the only one who thinks that those two sets combined look even better as a single set? While putting the sets of a certain `location` next to each other to plan future builds, I found out many actually look better together then alone, even Barrel Escape and Goblin Town have their appeal if I can get the bases right (that is, from wild image in the brain to not so great building skills transference) Quote
ArchitectureFan Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I like it! I am trying something similar myself. Quote
