Sarophas Posted May 2, 2021 This picture (inaccurate as it may be) has stuck to my mind since I first saw it as a child. So after being challenged by my girlfriend, to build something while being intoxicated, this seemed like a VERY good idea Hope you like it, but please "bear" in mind that it was built after downing a couple Gin-Tonics. Check out my other builds on flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/192230156@N07/albums Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmperZand Posted May 2, 2021 Very nice even for someone who is sober, let alone tipsy. The stonework's texturing is particularly well done. Overall, a charming creation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtooker Posted May 3, 2021 Great job matching the blocky rocks of the original picture. Too bad you couldn't get the LEGO guy's arm to reach the bear's neck though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For someone like me, who has a tendency of overthinking the placement of every brick, a few drinks made those choices surprisingly easy 47 minutes ago, jtooker said: Great job matching the blocky rocks of the original picture.

The rock texture was without a doubt the hardest part, especially given that this is my first real snot-rockwork I agree, at first I placed him closer to the bear but that made photographing it close to impossible. Maybe this scene is the moment just before what is depicted in the book Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my home region (Harz mountains) we have caves with lots of cavebear skeletons in them and on display. As a kid I was always very scared of them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha, it's a first for me but maybe not the last time I've been to Harz (Goslar/Wernigerode) a couple of times and I absolutely love it! I've never seen those skeletons though, but it's the sort of place where you'd expect to see a bear for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the caves, you'll find them here and here and and in them you can find this: You should check them out next time you visit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarophas Posted May 3, 2021 Wow! That is both spectacularly awesome and quite scary (I guess they often go hand-in-hand) Yes sir! For my next visit, I will have to consult you for sightseeing locations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
