Is it normal that no images show up? I can only see "Please upgrade your account to enable 3rd party hosting...". Maybe try to upload using Flickr or Bricklink?

You need to change your image host as you have to pay photobucket to show your images, or get a free web hosting account that allows you to direct link them.

Looks good! Very well built and staged - quite cinematic. I would make it look more derelict though, to make it look more - I almost said lived-in :wink: Maybe the pillars more crumbled and more damage and structure on the walls as well, with rocks piling on the floor. Things like that. Its just a bit too clean for my idea of Moria.

Very impressive! :thumbup: I especially like the texturing of the walls and the shape of the architectural features like the columns.

I don't like fleshies and would have yellowised the Fellowship, but appreciate that fleshies make the creation more like a UCS set or display piece at a LEGO store.

Nice build. It looks pretty movie accurate. Maybe do a few alternative poses - with Legolas on the cave troll, etc.

...and I saw this and that Weathertop on Aukro.cz :) Was it created by you or you just bought it?

I know what you mean. At first I made it with more bricks on the floor and around for "damage effect" but then it looked like "big mess".. I wanted to make minifigures and the battle itself centre of the model and with all that bricks around they were "lost" in mess (even though in the movie there was a big mess =)) )

I created it and I was selling it, because I needed funds for my other lego projects. But then I decided to keep it. (Same as my other model "Attack on Weathertop")

Ah, interesting to see we had the same thought process originally :classic: Its often very different how a thing turns out compared to how did you plan it indeed!

Nice build. :thumbup:

A fine MOC of a great action scene from the movie.

Tan and Dark Tan really works on the floor.

Thanks for sharing. :classic:

Looks very nice, but to much "clean" if you gonna me :) I would imagine that this specific scene requires some mess, dead bodies, or skeletons, dirt, more demaged walls etc...
