    Comic: The Island

    Now, about story. (first 1-82 pages, no or minor spoilers) It is sort of Indiana Jones cliche, but in the great way. Jungle, mystery, strange artifact, action... I'm particularly amazed by dialogues and characterization od Jack and Harvey. Other characters are much weaker, but still fine. The story has some great moments. Jack is great when need to think of some complicated plan fast and unexpectedly. And, basically, we follow the adventure trough Harveys exes, making Jack even more interesting. I think the story would be mush easier to read and follow if it is broken in episodes, like usual LEGO comics, but... let's be realistic here - this is no usual LEGO comic. This stuff is special. I just hope we we'll get deeper in the secret of unnamed island, and hope to see more of Jack's cool plans. About graphic... Oh my... Oh my... just look at it and you'll understand my emotions.

    Comic: The Island

    Same emotions here. I was surprised how well digital renders works. At the moment it almost felt like classic real plastic models are so inadequate. Your skill is great. Fantastic work on backgrounds, models, well... everything. Great camera positions, wonderful sceneries, engaging story... I didn't read the whole story yet, I'm trying to enjoy it slowly :) , so I'll put some comments on story later. Anyway - Jack Storm could be the milestone of new era of LEGO comics. EDIT: Could not reach you trough private messages (new members lock, I pressume). Please, contact me at zelimir.peris@ gmail.com - I got some ideas of how promote this comic. Thanks!

    Winter Village: tram station

    Very nice and greatly built MOC, although tram is way to much dependent on Sekiyama's design, not sure if that could affect rules of contest. Also, tram station is somewhat strange thing to be found in Winter Village (which is theme of contest) isn't it? Maybe if it was Winter City...

  6. Thank you all for your interest. At this point, I'm not interested in selling less that 10 sets at once, beacuse I'm trying to sell all of it at once, or at least half, or quarter of it, maybe to some club interested in classic city MOC, or to some interested reseller. If this trade doesn't commit (lets say, in a week), than I'll just go on BL with them, so you could buy roads at will (but with regular BL prices). IBAN (International Bank Account Number) is simple and not to expencive way of transfering money to Croatia. I never had problems with WU, but nevertheless, IBAN should be totaly safe. Now, for the price - please contact me at zelimir.peris@gmail.com I'm talking about around 20-25% discount compared to minimal BL price and posibility of free shipping for buyer who takes everything, or similar discount scaled proportional to amount of sets. But... please, details and negotiations on e-mail. As for "plates are much cheaper on BL" theory, I'm sorry, but it's not true. BL links with prices: sets: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=6310-1 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=6311-1 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=6312-1 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=6313-1 parts: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=2359p01&colorID=9 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=2360p01&colorID=9 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=2361p01&colorID=9 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=80547pb01&colorID=9 Maybe you are refering to used roads, but you need to know that MISB (mint in a sealed box) is not only about wrappings, but a guarantee that every road is completely new, without mechanical or UV damage, that used roads regulary have. Remember, those sets are from 1986, storaged in perfect condition, hence the big price on BL. So... jump on this 20-25% discout train, and bring some joy and happyness to your LEGO town.
  7. It's not issue of trust. Paypal acounts open in Croatia don't have possibility of receiving money. It's a state legislation issue, so Paypal is not an option. Anyway, I am willing to take in consideration WU fee and all the shipping costs, and give discount, so potential buyer doesn't have additional costs because of my egzotic whereabouts. So, to shorten the story, whoever buys the whole package will get free shipping (Europe & USA) and free WU fees, and still get a very nice price, considerable lower that BL minimal. If you buy only half, I'll cover half of the shipping and WU fees. Just send your offer at e-mail mentioned above. Thanks.
  8. I cannot set PM to you, Matt. Please email me to: zelimir.peris(a)gmail.com I did not defined price, but I imagine it as going from minimal BL price downwards, depeding on amount of sets you want. IBAN or Wester Union are ways to transfer money. All sets are MISB in a box, so photo of them is not very interesting. I'll show you few I gave to my son for his future LEGO city. City is still in development, so be gentle with critics. Also, his father is more into Castle...
  9. I do not have defined price. Please use PM or gmail me at zelimir.peris to make an offer. If I can persuade you to buy at least few T-roads and/or cross-roads with straight and curves, I would be willing to pay for the shipping. Anyway, the shipping cost to UK for 2,5 kg (5,5 pounds) is around 20$.
  10. Please note that I didn't defined any price. I can see prices on BrickLink, and those are big, so, I'm willing to go for some fair and cheeper alternative, of course. Please send me an offer by PM for everything or at least the bigger part of it. And other thing is that I'm in Croatia, so postage and money-sending will considerably affect costs. (No pay-pall.) Thanks!
  11. I have huge amount of old grey roads, all MISB packed and sealed, in exellent condition. 6310 T-Road Plates 19 sets (38 roads) 6311 Curved Road Plates 6 sets (12 roads) 6312 Straight Road Plates 14 sets (28 roads) 6313 Cross-Road Plates 22 sets (44 roads) I'm willing to sell it all together, for really great price. Maybe to some club for wonderful old-school diorama, or for some kind of re-sell. Anyway, if there is any interest, please let me know, I'm offering a really fine price. Also, if the lot is too big, I can break it in several smaller, but my wish is not to sold all this piece by piece. Thanks!

    MOC: Fallingwater

    3-colored gray wall is fantastic, and the winter scenery is a touch of geniusity. Everything else is impeccable. Unbelievable important LEGO MOC. Milestone for any future architecture MOCs. Everyone who want to build some landmark, must use this as a guide.

    But making it part of a wall was one of the hardest part of the built. It just doesn't fit right anywhere except their own door frame, and if you are trying to put it on to double-side wall, as I did... oh... not an easy task.
