Etzel Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Hi all, my Swedish 18th century Carolean army continues to grow and now it consists of 16 soldiers and 1 officer. I've shown these soldiers before in this topic and in the army index but this MOC is much bigger than the previous ones so I figured it could have an own topic Here it is, my Carolean army marching through the woods (sorry for the bad lightning): I think I soon will begin with a big project, making the Battle of Poltava in LEGO Thanks for looking!

Rick Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Nice display. I like the torso you use for the soldiers. But the Swedish monarch should really make funds available for new shirts since all of them are torn Quote
Sir Wellington Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Fantastic job, and may I say a Poltava would be spectacular. You should see the movie "The Sovereigns Servant" a film about Poltava and the Northern War. Quote

You should see the movie "The Sovereigns Servant" a film about Poltava and the Northern War. I really should! I've wanted to see that film since you gave me the tip about it in my other topic but I haven't found it yet. I've seen some clips on YouTube though, it looks great (even if the Swedish voices are ridiculous ). I will intensify my searching for now on. Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Looks great Etzel! Great improvements! I feel tiling the flag might be better instead of the studded one. A custom one would work well too. Nice job and keep expanding! Quote

It will be hard, I have searched the whole of New York State for the Film with no luck. There is only 3 books in New York on the Great Northern War, one is in my current possesion. :D But you should try building a Russian army and perhaps do a film or Poltava MOC. A Brickfilm on the war has never been done before. Quote

Yeah, the flag would probably look better tiled but I don't have the pieces A custom made flag is a good option and might look better than a brickbuilt one but I'm trying to stay purist It will be hard, I have searched the whole of New York State for the Film with no luck.

A Brickfilm on the war has never been done before. Nah, it wasn't that hard, I've already found it on an online shop but I don't want to spend that much money on it (can't cut back on my LEGO budget you know ). I rather just rent it if I find it. A brickfilm isn't a bad idea I've always found LEGO films very interesting but apart from some bad attempts from my childhood I've never actually tried it before. It's an option but I'm not promising anything. Quote
