large88 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Hello everybody! I'm not a very active member but I would like to share my current Lego project with you. It is a slowly growing layout of Hobbiton. It all started with Bag End. I was very satisfied with this so I tried to keep it going and have started to turn this one Hobbithole into a layout. So now it look like this \ It is not my goal to recreate the entire film set but it does look like it. I am now in the process of deciding where to go with these two roads. Probably they will meet somewhere on the left and then continue as one road that crosses the Bywater Bridge. This bridge has the Sandyman's Mill on one side and The Green Dragon on the other. So I will have to build them as well. Hope you like it and let me know what you think! ps, there are no interiors Check out more on my brickshelf.

Slobey Posted January 11, 2013 Very nice, I like how you've angled Bag End to the road. It gives it a very natural feel. Looking forward to seeing more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

large88 Posted January 11, 2013 Wow! This is awesome! Are you going to do an interior? Don't know, i'might give it a try. That will take some mayor modifications of what I have now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sigolf Brimabane Posted January 18, 2013 I like this a lot. It looks a bit simpler than many other builds around, but it has a genuine LEGO-ish feel to it. It's just the good ol' bricks! :D Keep up the good work, it's cosy to look at :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not supposed to be just like in the movies but simply a place where the Minifigs find their home I am now looking into making some things move, just to make it more fun to look at Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like you mentioned Tintin, I actually made a Marlinspike Hall in LDD: But this will not make it to a real life creation anytime soon, money does not grow on trees Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted January 22, 2013 That's a really neat MOC. I like the scale and the whole set-up. It is very fitting for those Hobbitses. I considered doing something similar, but on an even smaller scale, just so I can incorporate more into it. Plus, I'm really into mini-building anymore. But I love how you did yours. I can't wait to see more. Keep up the great work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
