DK_Titan Posted July 11, 2022 Posted July 11, 2022 The interesting geometrical shapes of Broadway Tower in Worcestershire, UK inspired us to this MOC, which consists of approximately 35.000 elements. Made together with Ulf Andersen The layout is inhabited by minifigures and creatures from the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings universes. The MOC is illuminated by 52 LEDs from Light My Bricks.

Yes - 35K pieces sounds insane, but when you build with a lot of very small elements the counter goes up very fast. Eg. behind each gold ingot (on the towers) are used 4 1x1 round plates and one "Erling". There are used 800-1000 hair/wigs for the 4 main trees. They are attached to a minifig head each and a 1x1 flower plate, that are attached to flower stems etc.. And then there are all the little bushes ..... and so on.

Feuer Zug Posted July 11, 2022 Posted July 11, 2022 What a tower! All the work to make the rounded shape would drive me nuts. The colors work well and give it a poisonous, evil vibe. Quote
MAB Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 Cylindrical towers always look great in LEGO. You can really see the inspiration from Broadway Tower. Quote
Henning M. Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 Well done guys. Looking forward to see it. Quote

MontyMatte Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 Amazing! I can't watch the video often enough. I need to process how you built some elements first. Great work. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Wow, this is amazing ...the light effect is impressive and totally cool! Quote
royalstick Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Because, Many Lime&Black color bricks were used, this master piece remind me of LEGO ELVES series' Ragana's and Noctura's buildings. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Fantastic job with those round towers! Quote
Mr Maniac Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 I'll say! I recently tried my hand at a (ruined) round tower for an MOC, and the closest I could get was with some hinge bricks to add stability to the whole thing. It's not bad, but this result is far smoother. Well done! Quote

Kai NRG Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 The tower is epic, the lights are very cool, and I love those dragons... but all those light green hairs on the trees? Genius. Quote
