Captain Settle Posted August 19, 2012 Nice MOC. I like the way it is built on a hill, and the landscaping is fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted August 19, 2012 Nice build, I like the tree and slightly curving steps to the hobbit hole The interior is good as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hyler Talliwell Posted August 19, 2012 Very nice build. THe hobbit hole looks very good. The tan is a very nice color to use as it isn't as dirty looking as brown. Great work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purpleparadox Posted August 19, 2012 Nice MOC! I like the upwards-sloping hill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackJonespaw Posted August 19, 2012 Very nice! I love the slight spiral staricase - it's just as nice as the road! Bag's End looks fantastic, although the interior is a bit bare. But, aside from that, it looks fantastic! Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harton Posted August 19, 2012 NIce building, windows and doors are great, to me only missing thinks is the front gate, but its detail... Great building! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Im a brickmaster. Posted August 19, 2012 Vary nice! But I think the door knob would be in the middle of the door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Venunder Posted August 19, 2012 Good details in the garden. Is this part of a bigger MOC BAGEND? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aredhel Posted August 19, 2012 This is a really nice MOC where the set fits perfect. I like the way you build the Hobbit home! -Aredhel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathleech Posted August 19, 2012 Very nice MOC. I will say though, I was hoping you did something with the sub par wagon design that comes from the official set. Regardless it looks great overall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haltiamieli Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) I will say though, I was hoping you did something with the sub par wagon design that comes from the official set. BaraSH has changed the design slightly – changed the wheels to smaller ones and located them further back than in the official design, and the sideboards of the wagon are now tiles instead of plates. Personally I'm not sure I like all those changes - admittedly using smaller wheels make it possible to attach the wagon lower on the horse's back, which in my opinion is the main weakness in the official design, but at the same time the wagon does lose a bit of it's unique recognisability. The changed location of the wheels make the wagon look rather unbalanced, too. Then again I quite like the official wagon design, which has some nice building techniques and compares favourably to similar (though slightly smaller, so comparing isn't completely fair) civilian wagons in Medieval Market Village and Mill Village Raid. EDIT: I suspect my preceding post sounds rather harsh, which is not my intention! I do like the moc as a whole; it has a peacefully Hobbitish atmosphere, and there's quite a lot of nice details included. For example I like the hobbit windows with jumper tiles as window shutters.

Deathleech Posted August 19, 2012 BaraSH has changed the design slightly Ahh, so he did! I didn't even notice those subtle changes. Honestly though, it's not the look that bugs me so much as the functionality. For instance the driver having to sit off center (yet no room for a passenger?), the back not opening at all, etc. These are easy things to fix yourself albeit, but it just annoys me you even have to. The designers could of easily made some simply changes themselves to the design and fixed it. All well. Not a bad set overall, I still think it's ok, it's just not near as good as the other LotR sets imo... sorry for getting so off topic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
