    Colorful build. NPU with the windscreens for rocks. Great details on the door and postbox. I also like the lack of a defined base, with the pathway being laid out on the bare ground.

    Wow amazing construction techniques for an excellent result! :wub_drool:

    The big stones are the icing on the cake! :thumbup:

    Both the roof and door have some great building techniques. Good work!

    Definitely in favor of how the rocks were build.

    Thanks for all the kind words!

    Lovely little build with some great techniques, any background to the inspiration?

    Thanks! No particular piece of artwork that inspired it, and I sorta just went section by section and built what seemed right. A few of my good friends in the LEGO community have been tinkering with various rounded boulder designs, so I figured I'd give it a shot too. :)

    Wow. Is it solid?

    Thanks! It is transportable enough to make it back and forth to a convention, but definitely has to come apart into a few different sections during transport.

    Great build. Have those flex tubes been cut, or are they naturally shorter? The photography is nice too. What made you decide to enlargen the aperture, making part of the build out of focus? Lastly, I must commend your parts usage. But what are those printed 1x1 plates, and how do you have so many? The same goes for the droid head roof pieces.

    Thanks! No cut flex tubes, just bought some different lengths off of Bricklink. The photography was less of a creative decision, and more so that I had ten minutes to take pictures before I departed to my friend's house for the gift exchange. I'm still not completely sold on the photography personally, but I'm glad to hear you like it! :) As for the 1 x 1 printed minecraft plates, I placed a Bricklink order a long time ago for them as this build concept was intended to be a collab a few years ago with Dan the Fan. And, I finally just got around to using them as you can see. ;)

  3. Hey hey! First time posting over in the pirate's forum, as I'm usually over posting in historic themes. This was a quick 2 day build that I did recently for a gift exchange with some friends.

    C&C welcome. :)

  4. A collab with Carter displayed at BricksCascade 2024. Utopian post-apoc? Futuristic steampunk? Neo-classical sci-fi? We're still not sure what it is thematically, so that's why I'm posting in this theme on the forum.

    This build is 360° viewable, and the picture of the back can be viewed on Carter's alt account. Also, we were able to use 60 different LEGO colors in the build. (Including all the Sand colors!)

  5. A collab for the Silhouette Category of the 2023 Summer Joust with Sean Mayo, Carter W, Eli WillseaMicah Beideman and myself. Loosely based off of some concept art released with the announcement of Alto's Oddysey: The Lost City. Instead of making a 6 stud depth build myself, I thought it would be fun to have 6 builders build 1 stud depth "layers" and then compile them into one seamless image, and this is the result!

    The Lost City

    The layers were built by the builders as follows:
    Dk Brown: Sean (Because Grant had to bail last minute)
    Reddish Brown: Me
    Dark Tan: Carter
    Sand Blue: Eli
    Medium Blue: Micah
    Medium Azure: Sean

    And now that I've dissed Grant for bailing last minute, I can also thank Grant for "breaking into" Eli's house and taking pictures of Eli's layer while Eli was out of town so that we could make it by the deadline!

    To Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior be the glory!

  6. Haven't posted on Eurobricks since I was a TFOL and realized it was supposed to be an AFOL only site, hehe. Nonetheless, here we are! All 15 currently produced frog colors are in the build as well, although really only one or two could be considered "hidden". Enjoy!

    Nice entry! I haven't learnt how to make those crazy angles yet, so I'm impressed every time. I particularly enjoy seeing roofs of different colours in the same (small!) build, I'd have never thought they could work that well :thumbup:

    'my favorite spot of texture is hidden behind the guy sitting down' <--- this cracked me up :rofl:

    Thanks En_Zoo! Yeah, I was also kind of surprised it worked with all the colors.

    Amazing build! Didn't know that how many building can fit on 16x16. Good luck in the contest!

    Thanks man! Good luck to you too!

    Wow! So many great buildings with crazy angels in such a small footprint! 

    Thanks de Gothia! Yes, lots of angels. ;) Thanks again!

    Impressive that you got so much into a small footprint! I am glad to see someone did something a bit more elaborate for the challenge, maximizing the available space to create an illusion of a much larger build. The texture you have here is also top-notch on the stone section. It looks great, and that comes from me, a vocal critic of your previous style! This is clean while still being detailed and textured, without appearing dilapidated and un-maintained. The half-plate and half-stud offsets, combined with some 1x2 plates with rail and the odd closed stud, is just great. I think it might be my favorite texture I have seen in LEGO in a long time. I don't like the tudor section as much, but it still looks nice and gets the job done. Don't forget to post it in the HSS thread if you have not done so already. 

    Wow, thanks much HQ! I am also quite pleased with the stone texture, took me a few tries to get the textures right. As for the Tudor, yeah I kind of agree, but I have 2 large builds and a few broken down builds which have eaten up my pieces, I wanted to go all dk. tan with just olive accents and reduce the angles some... Thanks again!

    Great moc! It seems like is much larger then it really is due to how tall the moc is and how much detail you managed to cram into it!

    Thanks man! Yep, went tall with this one.

    This is amazing, love the amount of stuff you created with unique layout and angles on the left in spite of the small footprint! There's a little tiny something I don't like about the tower, or rather my eye tells me it could be better, but the rest is pretty spiffy man, keep it up! 

    Thanks Navarre! Yeah, agreed the tower really doesn't look that great here, but it does IRL. ;)

    What a beautiful build!  Your builds always remind me of the high medieval fantasy computer games, like the old Quest for Glory series.  You use a lot of great texture and color in the buildings that look great.  I especially love the dark blue roof contrasting with the dark read and black ones.  The olive green imitating moss or mold growing on the bottom of the walls is especially nice.  As for HSS, I get the inn and the tower... but where is the glass blower?  I don't see that in the build, and I'd love to!  Very nice work!

    Thanks Grover! Heh, I can see your point, but I'm not much of a gamer, so I haven't taken much inspiration from them. ;) Also, as for the glassblower, I decided to change it to the cooper for the same category... I realized I put more barrels and baskets in the scene than I did glass.
