TitusV 3796 posts Posted January 15, 2016 Really cool build, I like the machine! (and how many glasses and bottles did you dat you had? ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bart 1098 posts Posted January 15, 2016 I just saw the glass blower and now this, wonderful! I'm in awe. Excellent two editions to Bastion. You might want some security around all that liquor though :D More alcohol to smuggle :D I can guess about future builds along this line, plantation, barrel maker ? If you check my previous build: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=119457 You'll see an liquor/ale merchant in the streets :D :D Excellent design.

Vedauwoo 485 posts Posted January 15, 2016 I just realized none of these angles show the cool ceiling that the whole build evolved around..... Untitled by Christopher Briggs, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stig 853 posts Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Sweet roof. Both the underside and the gable. I can't figure out how your distillery works, but I am more than willing to taste your product :) Edited January 16, 2016 by Sir Stig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CelesAurivern 388 posts Posted January 16, 2016 Sterling build with that distillary; deserves a hearty thumbs up That lovely technology seems ahead of its time. There be time travellers? Is transparent aluminum in use there? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elostirion 1569 posts Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Neat idea, that machine looks quite impressive. Great job on the minifig posing as well! Edited January 16, 2016 by Elostirion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon 5387 posts Posted January 16, 2016 Very nice build Ved, great work on the machine (I really like the trans-clear and gold accents everywhere!), and the pillars and roof are excellent as well! The Nexo Knights shields are used very well too, and those crates of bottles are really cool! The one thing which I would suggest doing is tiling the dock and doing something or other with the water - especially so close to the very clean and neat machine area, it does look quite plain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KlodsBrik 956 posts Posted January 16, 2016 Good to seee all those "father and son´s" bottles get to fullfill the very porpose of theirs. This machine is kinda awesome, if one drinks to much from the destillery, one would surely think it was the work of an alchymist. Another nice build from you !

Bregir 7149 posts Posted January 16, 2016 That destillery is brilliant and very fitting for the setting. I am loving the machine itself, and the roof is looking sweet - I wonder if that technique could be used for the outside roof too... There are so many nice details, like the small golden horn in the bottle to show he is pouring, and I chuckled when I saw the one guy who came for a free taste with two BUCKETS! I agree the water and docks looks a little plain compared to the wonderful details of the destillery itself. You have shown the life on the docks very well. I approve!

Captain Dee 2863 posts Posted January 16, 2016 Fabulous build my friend. I like the towering structure and yes, ze machine, she iz wonderful! *urp* Actually it looks a bit modern but who cares... it's a brilliant design with the gold and trans-clear parts. The shields are a neat idea and I did indeed spot the grey of the curved ceiling in the first pics. I like the rows of sparkly clean bottles; let's hope they don't get overly aggressive with that broom and dust them all up. The activity is nice, but those "thirsty crewmen" are after more than a sample... I mean, after he's downed two whole buckets he won't be walking out on his own two feet no matter how "delightfully smooth" the rum is! Great idea and a job well done. Of course I approve. Bottoms up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
