Thank you very much, the architecture of the tower was really fun to design. I love medieval architecture. Thank you, it gives it a Roman-ruins feel, I could see someone reading a book (or scroll) somewhere around there. I also love the minifigures repurposed as statues. Thank you, yes I agree, this makes it particularly fitting for a medieval build.

Please support on LEGO Ideas! Hi Eurobricks, I present my newest addition to my Medieval Artisans: the Medieval Library. It is inspired by Romanesque and English Gothic architecture, and is currently up on LEGO Ideas. Please support the project if like it. It is 2700 pieces total, and has a fully detailed interior. As a "thank you" to the forum community here, I'm also posting a picture of an "alternate" version of the same build, that looks more like a medieval church bell tower. I hope you enjoy!

I've got a new project up on IDEAS that I'd like to share: the Medieval Miller (Windmill) Please support it here: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/b71ea9c0-aedc-48f8-9e11-bf80fac2eb10 Medieval Miller (Windmill) [LEGO Ideas] by arselus, on Flickr The story of the Forestmen continues... Come visit the Medieval Miller. He works hard by day at the windmill, milling the village wheat and making flour. His wife bakes excellent bread (she is also featured in the Medieval Butcher Ideas set). In fact, his life was very plain and simple, and has been so for many years. But one strange and stormy Saturday night, a mysterious seagull carrying a written note found his way to the top of the Windmill. "Captured, captive, need help. -Robin" the note read. Reading the note, the Miller was spurred to action. He immediately began drawing up plans to reunite the Forestmen, find Robin, and launch a daring rescue.

This is awesome povoq! Thank you for sharing. Are you targeting the $150-200 USD price range? Congrats - so exciting!

I agree, those black falcon flags are great. I bet we get some (1?) in the creator castle set rumored for summer 2021. I would also love the forestmen's hat in red - we can only hope. This is a valid point - I thought about that a bit, but really wanted to do the stone work, and also wanted to have the character be a carpenter. So I tried mixing. I've seen brilliant renditions of stonemasons: (Andhe's work on Flickr, I'm sure he's known..) Until I can create something original, I wouldn't want to copy this stonemason (which I think is totally great.) I agree with this logic too. That deer head sculpt is clearly for a kingly castle, though thematically the Lion Knight Sheriff doesn't approve. I would so hope for a series of medieval artisans, that Brickfanatics article (that I think interviewed Wes and Austin) really pointed to it. Seems Wes has already asked some of their leadership if they could do something like this, a series of Medieval Modulars.

You noticed that huh ;) The whole point of this MOC and Ideas entry is to get that flag reprinted :) JK, but it really would be awesome to have that. Thank you all for the support!! It's nearing 2k supporters now.

I've got one more to add, it's been on Ideas for a few weeks now, and steadily gathering support. The Medieval Carpenter. The backstory is that he used to be one of the Forestmen (along with the Medieval Butcher), and now lives a more quiet life - until Robin is in need :) LEGO IDEAS - Medieval Carpenter Medieval Carpenter (LEGO Ideas) by arselus, on Flickr Medieval Carpenter (LEGO Ideas) - The Carpenter - Scarecrow by arselus, on Flickr Medieval Carpenter (LEGO Ideas) - The Carpenter by arselus, on Flickr Medieval Carpenter (LEGO Ideas) - Workshop by arselus, on Flickr

It is a fantastic project - thank you for creating :)

Excellent castle - thank you for creating and sharing.

Thank you for 2000 supporters on LEGO Ideas! As a "thank you" I was trying to create a poll to gather input for my next Medieval MOC, but as I read here (How to Make a Poll - Forum Information and Help - Eurobricks Forums) I need to be "Knight" rank before I can create a poll. If any "Knight" is willing to create a poll for me in this thread. Either way, please help me pick the next project: 1. Medieval Scriptorium 2. Medieval Wool Trader (Clothier) 3. Medieval Mill (Windmill OR Watermill) 4. Medieval Town Gate 5. Medieval Bakery Thank you again for 2000 supporters!!

Thank you! I say go for it! More medieval builds is a good thing! :) Yes it’s really a beautiful town. Thank you!

This is excellent- I love the grey and white colors.

Hi EB, I've come up with a new medieval modular-style build: the Medieval Carpenter, I'm posting some renders here, as I think you'll like it. The Medieval Carpenter uses the same basic formula as my other recent project, the Medieval Butcher. It includes: the carpenter's work shed (or "shop"), the carpenter's house (built in a completely different style than the butcher's house, and inspired heavily by Rothenburg ob der Tauber), and a vignette of the carpenter working on a deer head wooden sculpture. See if you can spot some Forestmen eastereggs :) If you like the build, please support on LEGO Ideas!

Fantastic!! I love the colors and roof technique. What is your total part count?
