Marishka Posted August 26, 2016 Hello! I've got some new sets and it allowed me to improve one of my mocs. This cottage is hidden deep in the Fire Woods - there's magical trees that takes no harm from dragon's fire and lava, so dragons and other creatures of fire elemnt may live here. Cottage have not so much space inside, so I stuffed it as much as I can. On first floor there's something like workplace with shelf full of magical ingredients (it's so funny to build such tiny and simple things - such as "hmm, what is it may be? Okay, magic root or dragon's tooth!" ) , dinner table on the second and small attic for any old stuff. The most trouble I had with roof, it's quite easy to break it but in first I tried to make it look not too bad. After all I completely forgot to add leaves everywhere as elves style needs, so I decided to build different types of trees and make garden of them. I heve idea to make tan-wood tree, it would be an legendary White tree, but I already used my tan half-arcs in another moc, so may be next time. Hope you'll like it! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Wolfe Posted August 26, 2016 Oooh! I love it. Don't see a ton of Elves mocs but the sets are some of my favorites right now and this gets the aesthetic just right! I like the little faerie ring in particular. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marishka Posted August 26, 2016 Thanks a lot! Really, there's not too many elves mocs anywhere, I think it's not right and I'm going to fix it! I happy to share some ideas here. Also, it's nice to be one of the first is this theme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkdragon Posted August 26, 2016 I love that mushroom patch. The building is great, it looks like it would all fit in really well with the sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenA Posted August 26, 2016 Love this. You've captured the Elves aesthetic really well - so much so that it could pass for an official set. We have an Elves moc on the go and might have to steal... um I mean 'borrow'... that fairy mushroom ring idea! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, "steal" whatever you like I'm for such kind of "stealing" And I'm exited to see your creation, please tell me when you'll post it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickJagger Posted August 26, 2016 I like the different terrains you built, especially the swamp. Nice work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it will be quite some time before we're finished with our moc, but here's a WIP photo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marishka Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Wow, It will be epic! It already has very "elven" look, I like how you used motifs from Skyra's castle and added gates, non-symmytry is great for it. It's very interesting to see it finished! It's strange that image shows only in mobile version :( No image on decktop Edited August 28, 2016 by Marishka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lordofdragonss Posted August 28, 2016 Very well made colorsheme - even if you used quite a lot the collors they work nicely! Roof is my favorite part! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted August 30, 2016 I've been inspired by some of these Elves builds. My daughter saw them and now I have to build them. It should be a nice change from usual builds, only I don't have a lot of purple leaves, so I will need to look into that. But these have a definitely Elves look and I struggle with maintaining that. But you builders do a great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickCurve Posted August 30, 2016 Nice one. I particularly like the roof design, it works really well here. It's strange that image shows only in mobile version :( No image on decktop Its showing in the desktop version for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eve nightfall Posted August 31, 2016 I like your elven MOC very much! I haven't built one of the elven sets yet but I have some bought for the future (my daughter is just getting 5 in some weeks and it it is a little bit too early for her, she now starts with the Disney themes). I really love the nature with the leaves and all that green! Hope to see more soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iria Posted September 4, 2016 What a lovely cottage! The overall design is really nice, especially the roof and the diagonal lava windows. The varied vegetation is a nice touch as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SerenityInFire Posted September 5, 2016 I like what you've built there. Very intricately detailed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
