Blake Baer Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) Hey all, Well, after almost 6 months of work, here it is. Erebor, I am proud to say, is the largest creation I have had the pleasure of working on and completing. I love the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings (from which Erebor is taken) so I really enjoy working on LEGO projects that pertain to that area. I had a blast working on this project. There is something so inherently satisfying about seeing a project like this come to a close and enjoying the attention it receives that really makes all the hard work worth it. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you... Erebor! Hope y'all like it! Please leave me a comment letting me know what you think.

OrcSan Posted November 27, 2013 I could do anything to see this fantastic work in person I think Lord of the rings and Hobbit alone give birth to a lot of MOC ers out there to do something in epic scale like that like no other theme... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin8 Posted November 27, 2013 Simply breathtaking... Just a question... in such monumental Mocs, do you start building step by step or it's designed by cad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bob De Quatre Posted November 27, 2013 Awesome rendition of "movie" Erebor!! There are so much details and all... Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blake Baer Posted November 27, 2013 Just a question... in such monumental Mocs, do you start building step by step or it's designed by cad? I have heard of some builders who do design their creations in CAD before they begin building, but Jack and I just liked to build from our heads. Its more fun and allows for creative room.
