BrickBuilder7622 Posted April 9, 2015 Oh man, where to begin... Rodgenhale Farm is a small, but very productive farm that resides in the medieval countryside. The farmer, his wife, and three sons work hard everyday to keep their farm running, and on this day, they are paid a visit (which doesn't happen often as they are pretty far out in the country) by a merchant. The merchant's cart is filled with all sorts of things exotic to these farmers. I do plan on displaying this creation at Brickworld Chicago, so you might just see it there! :-) Well this creation is something that has been in the works for about two months now and I finally finally finally have finished it. There are a lot of techniques that I have used in this build (some of which I made up myself), which really hope to enhance the detail that brings out the agricultural side of this MOC. I do hope you all enjoy this MOC. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickBuilder7622 Posted April 9, 2015 Great stuff - which one of your new techniques are you most proud of? D Thanks for the comment! Well, now granted I didn't come up with too many techniques myself - - but I'd say the one I am most proud of is the little "holder" for the bundles of wood (I don't mean using the rubber band for bundling, I mean the framed holder that the bundle is in). Thanks so much again for the comment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stelario Posted April 15, 2015 Awesome farm. I like the way you made this pond. Planing to make something similar myself. You should add some small vegetable field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Dee Posted April 24, 2015 Don't close the book yet - we aren't finished! Farming doesn't get a lot of attention in the Lego universe, and being a farmer myself (dairy, 125 cows) I'm naturally drawn to agricultural projects. This is a very lovely scene. I like the different trees, the pond and cattails, the dirt road, horse-drawn cart, scarecrow, farmyard and of course the house itself. The birdhouse in the tree, mushrooms and toadstools, and the man picking apples from the ladder are nice details as well. The grass looks rather thin - perhaps the cow has been grazing it? (In the past it was common for livestock to graze around houses and other buildings.) Again, very good presentation. Keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
