Legopard Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) Hello fellow elves, orcs, hobbits and humans, this creation comes directly from the second Hobbit movie: The Halls of Thranduil While watching the movie for the first time the capital of the Woodland Realm already caught my attention and with the first Comic Con in Stuttgart, Germany,last year I had the perfect chance to build and show my version. I had a few challenges to deal with while building, but I'm pretty happy how it turned out. One was the sheer size of the original halls. My layout is already quite big, but to fit in all elements, I had to scale down a lot. Next to the inside I built the outside of the halls with a few trees to indicate the location of the halls in the Mirkwood Forest. I hope you like it. For higher resolutions of all pictures check them out on Flickr. Jonas Edited January 22, 2017 by Legopard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Kallus Posted January 22, 2017 I like it but the silver shredder helmet kinda looks out of place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheLordOfBricks Posted January 23, 2017 Ooooh, awesome! The interior is the best part IMO, but the trees and landscaping outside is still pretty awesome, not to mention the incredible gateway, that throne is probably my favorite small-er details... Keep it up! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vorkosigan Posted January 24, 2017 Excellent build, amazing details! The Elven architecture is really well represented. I actually like the shredder helmets, would be a little better in gold maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soccerkid6 Posted January 28, 2017 So much to like about this build, everything in fact! I have to echo the others on admiring your Elvish architecture Great work pulling off the tricky transition from outdoors to inside the mountain via the excellent rockwork The water and landscape designs are amazing as well, inside and out!
