T-86(swebrickLUG) Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Built for MELO round 2, a 16*16 vignette. The prompt was to represent a given one of the free peoples of Middle Earth. I got Hobbits, and chose to depict Merry having Pippin and Sam over for a minor elevenses-meal. It is suppose to take place after the scourging of the shire and Frodo’s departure to Valinor. Merry has just sooted his face when adding wood to the fire while Pippin is getting ready to dig in on the food. Sam is taking a step back from the two more energetic hobbits. Quote
MAB Posted July 11 Posted July 11 I like that Merry has some souvenirs from his time with Eowyn. Nice details. Quote

GeoBrick Posted July 12 Posted July 12 I'm unfamiliar with the backseat element of the chair. Which one is that? Quote

Seagull King of Vaughan Posted July 14 Posted July 14 Builds set after the Scouring of the Shire seem to be pretty rare, it’s nice to see one. I particularly love the wheel-window. I’ve always found Hobbit architecture somewhat difficult to replicate with bricks, but this nails it. Quote

The wheel-window with link chain 3711 is a sweet combo. Its used by several builders doing hobbitholes. Take care! Quote
Grover Posted July 18 Posted July 18 This thing has some serious detail! The inverted 1x1 plates is a great idea, and works well with the fireplace bar. I wasn't familiar with that chair piece, but it appears that is new. I'm not 100% sure it looks comfortable, but it does look like a well detailed chair! The pen upside down as a wax melted candle, the firewood stacked next to the hearth, the SNOT built rug on the floor, the chain and wheel window and various foodstuffs... I am always impressed how much detail can be packed into a small area. This reminds me of @soccerkid6's interior builds. The photography is excellent as well! Great job! Quote

Thanks @GroverI take it as a huge compliment if it in any way remotely reminds you of an Isaac-build! Quote
