First of all,

I want to say Hi to this great EB-community! While this is my first post and also my first posted Moc i'm happy to get part of this...

So here is my biggest creation in my short moccing history, hope you like it even if it's quite a bit of reading/watching :grin: :

Title: ''Somewhere in the Shire''

Size: 96x64 Studs

Pieces: about 20.000+ i guess

Time: four weeks intense building

Idea: I wanted to build something big. During watching tons of flickr-pics i created the idea of Bag-end, but in fact i wanted to do something new. So i created the idea of an village with small Derfel/Cesbrick houses for hobbit's. So i can get an good ''village'' effect with less pieces -> little houses for little men. Once i had that in mind, i started planing and browsing BL. Finally i achieved this:

All Hobbit's are kitbashed, mostly PotC,HP and official Hobbit Torso's...

Behind the village there are some nice little places, time to fall in love... :wub:

He's not amused, working while his brother having fun in the fields... :angry:

I hope you like my Moc, even if it's not totally Tolkien-proofed...right now I'm back out of my Dark Ages for half an year and totally addicted to castle/LotR. Prepare for more, i have to choose an Guild :laugh:

Regards from Germany,

This is lovely :wub: I like the concept of the little houses, and they turned out extremely well :thumbup: Excellent landscape to tie everything together too.

Glad to hear you plan on joining a guild :classic:

Nice to meet you on eurobricks, too :classic:

Your latest MOCs is really amazing :wub: . I love all the different colours and techniques. Especially the roofs look great. Furthermore I like all the kitbash minifigures in your creation :thumbup:

Excellent build Marcu, great job with all the little details! :sweet: Great idea with the smaller houses as well, I'm looking forward to seeing you in the Guilds! :wink:

Great work. :thumbup:

Possibly the best place to call this would be Little Delving?

Add a few traditional Hobbit holes and the Lockholes and it could be Michel Delving, on the White Downs, in the West Farthing.

Here's a side of the Shire we don't see often. Tolkien stated that, in the time of Lord of the Rings, only the richest and the poorest hobbits still lived in holes. So most hobbits live in houses (like the one Frodo briefly stays in before departing on his quest), which we don't see much in the movies.
