Wineyard Posted January 26, 2015 Thanks for the comments! A slightly smaller scale Japanese castle, with the same Japanese-style detailing but not so huge a base, would make an excellent LEGO Ideas project. I'd buy, for sure. Hm, that's an quite interesting idea! :) The only decent japanese themed buildings we have, in "modern" times, are one or two Ninjago sets. At least Ninjago has given us a lot of new pieces!

alainphoto Posted January 31, 2015 I have seen many actual japanese castles and this creation is an extremly good rendering. Congrats from Japan ! I second that you should submit to IDEAS, at least to promote more Japanese 'medieval' theme. Thanks for sharing ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wout Posted February 3, 2015 Very nice moc! Well done! I don't want to nitpick on this situation, but I believed the japanese let the dutch have a little settlement on a small island called Decima for trade only , but that was the only time they allowed that.

Wineyard Posted March 22, 2015 Hey! Thanks guys! I don't want to nitpick on this situation, but I believed the japanese let the dutch have a little settlement on a small island called Decima for trade only , but that was the only time they allowed that. That's correct! Actually I been thinking of building Dejima for some years. Ever since I wrote my history thesis about two swedes who spent some time on the island during the 17th and 18th centuries.

BrickSev Posted March 23, 2015 The other day on a TV channel of my country there was a documentary about that period of Japan's history and it reminded me of this wonderful MOC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
