Lord Tulkas Posted September 7, 2015 Hi everyone! This is the first time i share a creation here. I'm amazed with the things i'd seen in the forum and i wanted to say only one or two things; my MOC has been created with pieces from my childhood legos (80's/90's and some early 2000's), that's why there is only a few diferents colors and "rare" pieces (i barely own a few "flat" pieces, for example). Also, i don't have neither the skill or the knowledge you have in builds techniques (but i'm trying to learn). So, here it is, and thanks to all of you! This is Lord Tulkas's Renegade's Fortress, a fortress build over the mountain. People here lives quietly but are always alert and with a hand on their swords.

Lordofdragonss Posted September 7, 2015 You did oustanding job! Your MOC fits to old style sets perfectly and I think it's great! I really like the fishermen scene! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Covenant84 Posted September 7, 2015 This is fab! I too started back to lego with only old bits. I found the best way to get newer ones was to buy sets 'without figures' with some interesting parts (I think I got four 'council of Elrond' pretty cheap which gave me quite a lot of parts I've used in most of my builds. Your creation however is super with the parts you have - some great details and a sense of narrative going on. If you want to improve I'd recommend the Doctorate of Petrea program in Guilds of Historica. (see link in 'new members thread there). I found its helped me focus o improving a little at a time and small builds done well rust fine. My difficulty is trying to build as big a possible and stretching my parts collection too far. Keep up the good work - look forward to seeing more from you :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickOn Posted September 7, 2015 Very nice, I especially like the fish preparation going on, wish I had a few of those ornamental fish myself :-) Good build and welcome to EB :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Tulkas Posted September 7, 2015 Thanks you all for the comments! Now i'm feel encouraged to keep trying and building! What frustrate me is the lack of tile parts (i love the "old style" looks, but what i'd have seen here blows my mind) so i'm trying to master the buildings techniques that allows you to make flat floors with regular pieces... I will keep reading and trying to improve. Thanks all again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted September 7, 2015 Wonderful wolfpack build! The fortress incorporated into the cliff looks great Lots of good details included too, with the men scaling fish, and stockpiled weapons and supplies inside Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Tulkas Posted September 7, 2015 Cool! Thanks! Wonderful wolfpack build! The fortress incorporated into the cliff looks great Lots of good details included too, with the men scaling fish, and stockpiled weapons and supplies inside Thanks! The first version i make didn't have the interior room... I spend all my black bricks but it worth it. I'm thinking of doing more of the interior down the mountain but i will need to destroy this moc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Tulkas Posted September 7, 2015 Excellent work! The rockwork is very nice and I love the interior Fantastic build! Thanks guys! I know is a pretty basic build, but yours comments encouraged me to keep trying! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sorrelon Posted September 8, 2015 Awesome build! Seems like Wolfpack decided to team up with Forestmen to steal every bit of gold in the whole kingdom. Or are they simply using what they looted off of the Forestmen they killed? Also, the skeleton hidden in the LURP is a great touch, it has a nice old style castle set feeling to it. Great job!

TitusV Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) You show us that less bricks doesn't mean less quaulity in your MOCs. Great job! Edit: welcome on the forum Edited September 8, 2015 by TitusV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha i think they decided to team up; that way is easier to fight the law and the regular armys! Thanks for the comment, old style castle is the only style i know! haha You show us that less bricks doesn't mean less quaulity in your MOCs. Great job! Edit: welcome on the forum Thanks Titus! Is more an obligation than an election, but i'm glad you liked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blufiji Posted September 9, 2015 I like the playability of this build very much. Another one of those lego set type builds from way back when is the vibe I get here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sens1992 Posted September 13, 2015 I love this. Love the open back! Great castle, good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
x105Black Posted September 13, 2015 This looks fantastic, especially considering that you're working with your old parts. It's much better than I could have made with the bricks I had when I got back into LEGO. I love Wolfpack and Forestmen, and this suits both really well. The guys preparing the fish are my favorite part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
