soccerkid6 Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 This is the second module for the collab that John and I are building. You can see the first, here. The hay cart has steerable front wheels, and the shelter’s gate can open and close. There are many small farms outside Nordheim’s walls, and cattle paddocks with lean-to shelters are a common sight. There are more pictures on brickbuilt. Thanks for looking, all your feedback is appreciated Quote
TitusV Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Other great build, this collab promisis to become one of the best! Looking forward to more Edit: I checked out the images on brickbuilt, that cradle is awesome! Edited June 29, 2016 by TitusV Quote
Mpyromaxos Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Another beautiful creation with great snowjob! Quote
Isundir Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 The cart, the snow, the tree, the road, the barn, man everything is great Quote

John came up with that hay feeder design, and I thought it was pretty sweet Another beautiful creation with great snowjob! Thanks Mpryo! The cart, the snow, the tree, the road, the barn, man everything is great Thank you Quote
BrickCurve Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Looks great! Having the trans in the stone path really helps bring the model to life, adding another layer of realism to the build. Also, really nice mini figure posing, adding the boys playing in the snow was a masterstroke. Edited June 29, 2016 by BrickCurve Quote
Blufiji Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Great job, the stone road pattern is nice, and the snow drifts are great as usual! Quote
LittleJohn Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Fabulous work here as usual, Isaac! The tree is excellent, and the snow looks really nice Great touch with the kids throwing snowballs too Quote
dzidek1983 Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 I love it.. it's just so clean, the white snow builds are excellent if you manage to make a good photo and this one is great... Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 1, 2016 Author Posted July 1, 2016 Lovely feeder there SK... nice Thanks Gunman Lovely snowbanks! Thank you Looks great! Having the trans in the stone path really helps bring the model to life, adding another layer of realism to the build. Also, really nice mini figure posing, adding the boys playing in the snow was a masterstroke. Thanks BC, I wanted a few more figures in the scene and figured every snowy layout needs at least one snowball fight Great job, the stone road pattern is nice, and the snow drifts are great as usual! Thanks blufiji! Fabulous work here as usual, Isaac! The tree is excellent, and the snow looks really nice Great touch with the kids throwing snowballs too Thank you, LittleJohn I love it.. it's just so clean, the white snow builds are excellent if you manage to make a good photo and this one is great... Thanks! Dark backgrounds make photographing snowy builds much easier. Quote
TitusV Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 What is the background actually? Black paper? A dark sheet? I'm really bad at this kind of things Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 2, 2016 Author Posted July 2, 2016 What is the background actually? Black paper? A dark sheet? I'm really bad at this kind of things It's dark blue fabric, somewhat similar to a sheet. I use a piece of ply wood for the backdrop to drape the fabric over. Quote
Gabe Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Great build Soccerkid, nice use of the ladder pieces for fencing while still maintaining a realistic look overall. That's a wonderful byre design too! My fav part would have to be that small splash of lavender in the corner next to the snowdrift. Really adds a touch of subtlety to counterbalance the highly contrasting tones elsewhere in the model.

LordDan Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Great build SK! Nice work on the paddock, especially that little feeding trough. Quote

The lavender leaves were a present from John some time ago, and I use them most in snowscapes Great build SK! Nice work on the paddock, especially that little feeding trough. Thanks LordDan, all credit for the trough design goes to John Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Oh, I almost missed this one (but I think I saw it on flickr). Looks great - wonderful wintery atmosphere! Quote
halixon Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 You always capture the Mitgardian feel perfectly in all of your builds SK! This fact is no lesser shown here! Quote
ixypixy Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Amazing work I really like the icy cobblestone path and the design of the cow shelter. It has a fun vibe to it with the children playing snowballs, which is very cool. Quote
