mallou Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Hi all, I've not been posting since a while and this is because I was working on a big project. I had all these castle parts laying around and never found the opportunity to work on a real medieval build. So this is my fist castle theme MOC.I made it in peace and in War version. Hope you guys like it. Thanks!

TitusV Posted January 2, 2016 For an experienced builder, this would be very cool. For a first medieval MOC, this is just AWESOME! Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tezclatipoca Posted January 2, 2016 Awesome build ! I like the peaceful version more because of the village details showing the common folks. Great job ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

modelado1990 Posted January 3, 2016 Love it!!! That' s a very detailed MOC. Great job!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mallou Posted January 3, 2016 Thanks to everybody for your kind comments. This MOC took me about 8 months to complete. At the end I couldn't stand it anymore and wanted so bad to move on another project but couldn't before this one was finished (since it was taking all my work space). After this experience, I'm not sure I will do any MOC that big in near future. but I had a lot of fun and it wont be my last medieval theme MOC for sure!

soccerkid6 Posted January 5, 2016 Quite an impressive layout for sure! I like how you included both a well detailed castle, and a large town layout The 2 towers in the back, with red roofs, and wooden battlements look really cool Nice work setting several buildings at angles to the landscape as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lindulan Posted January 5, 2016 Amazing build! Thank you for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted January 5, 2016 Wow! That's a lot of medieval lego in one place! Some of my favourite parts in this build are the wooden roofs and the inside of the castle in general, as well as the windmill. The landscaping in general in this build is very nice and I especially like the shores. Several parts of this look like great MOCs in their own right and would merit their own threads. Are you keeping some of the buildings or other elements in this diorama still intact? What I however fail to see in your presentation is where this build is placed in the Guilds of Historica context? Is there a backstory in Historica tied to this...? Judging by the lion insignia it looks to have ties to Kaliphlin If you are not interested in participating in the "free-form role-playing game" of GoH and only want to post this as a MOC in it's own right, I think it would reside better in the historic themes forum (where it probably would get more views also) since this is just a subforum with builds sharing the common fantasy setting of Historica.

mallou Posted January 6, 2016 Hi Gideon, Tank a lot for your opinion. I thought this was the forum for historical theme Mocs. I don't comfortable to post it again on main forum page. but next time I will. no I didn't keep anything, once it's finished and I took my photos, I usually dismantle everything. not sure about the faction. you seem to know it better so I believe you.

Gideon Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) Ok, sorry about if my recruiting attempt was not obvious enough What about: You are very welcome to join GoH, please pick the Kaliphlin guild!! (To join you need to create a sigfig character and post it in one of the guilds' main threads, but after that we are not too hard on that the sigfig is used in every build unlike other similar "games" out there) Edited January 6, 2016 by Gideon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
