Ratshot Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 (edited) The President and a loyal officer flee the White House before its to late. Some Yankees held up in a house. An overview of the park. Some British rushing the White House. A local house on fire. An overview. (Please use this image when its blogged) Thanks for looking! Comments and Criticism are welcome Rat Edited June 2, 2010 by Erdbeereis Quote
Commodore Hornbricker Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Great job. Good war! I like all the various elements in the MOC and the fact that you even have some things going on indoors. Quote
SWMAN Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Very nice MOC. The War of 1812 is often a forgotten war, which is surprising considering it was the last time the US was invaded and the only time the White House has been directly attacked. Quote

I think people in general try to forget it as our two countries are so close now. Its looked upon as an old fight between two best friends. Edited June 1, 2010 by Ratshot Quote
General Redwater Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Amazing job! I really like the scene, and buildings, very well built. Although we Americans lost the battle, it only made our will to fight on stronger! Good luck with the contest! - General Redwater Quote
Erdbeereis Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 That looks like a great entry Ratshot! I have one small suggestion: I would recommend including one overview picture, so when the voting thread is made, the voters can see the whole entry in one shot. Quote
Capt. Stabbin Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 (Please use this image when its blogged)Rat You must be mighty proud of your entry, if you think it will automatically be blogged! But really, it is a nice entry! Good luck in the contest. Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Good choice to use this battle as reference. And thanks for using my head for the president For the rest, good use of existing minifig parts and enough action. Ofcourse I also didn't miss the rat, it just had to be there! Quote
Ratshot Posted June 2, 2010 Author Posted June 2, 2010 Thanks guys You must be mighty proud of your entry, if you think it will automatically be blogged! We try to blog all the entries. Ofcourse I also didn't miss the rat, it just had to be there! Its a tradition Quote
Forresto Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Nice Moc man! I live in good 'ole DC so it's great to see a Moc set in it. You did a pretty good job with the whole scene is great. I especially like the picture of the park with all the Redshirts (oops too much star trek ) Redcoats chargin the house. Good luck and keep on Mocing. Quote
Zorro Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Magnificient creation, Ratshot, I really like the picture where they try to escape and the fighten on the courtyard is well executed too. Much luck with the contest! Quote
Skipper 24 Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) Great entry Ratshot! I love all the action and fighting, it brings the MOC to life really well, after all fighting in pirate MOCs is a tried and tested technique . Look out for your entry on the Classic-Pirates.com frontpage! Edited June 4, 2010 by Skipper 24 Quote
Fires-storm Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 Man, I can't believe I didn't comment on this before voting for it, but I love this moc, all the detail, and such a perfect depiction, well done mate! Quote
