Island Shrine After multiple trips, there's only one place in Japan I went back to on every occasion I had: Eikan-dō Zenrin-ji temple in Kyoto. The garden, the colors, the view from the mountain side, and that lake. This place made me feel so remote and calm... This is my attempt to convey this. This MOC is only inspired by the view I remember, not aiming to be accurate at all and taking only a few details from other shrines elsewhere. Album Island Shrine on Flickr There are a few illegal connections here and there, but I don't care, I was aiming for the looks. For instance, I wanted the torii to have slightly angled pillars. As for the build, it all started with the candle stand and the bridge. I then built and rebuilt the island and shrine multiple times, before moving on to actually setting up the bridge and shore. Work in progress pictures can be found there: https://imgur.com/a/kseldcB. It's my very first MOC ever, it took a lot of time, trial and error, but I'm proud of the result and would gladly take some advice if you have some. I submitted it to the Summer Joust 2021, "asian setting" category, as it was still open for entries when I uploaded this to flickr yesterday. I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Aron the knight has found another dragon to hunt, the 'Horned Dragon Tail'. Little did he know, it is a monster who lures or scares prey with a long tail shaped like a small dragon. The Horned Dragon Tail by Ids, on Flickr Build for the Creating an Atmosphere category Summer Joust 2021. - No photo editing was used, the only light is from 3, 12V lightning bricks and a camera on a tripod. First time building a brick build monster, the monster is somewhat inspired by an angler fish, only using a small dragon like tail instead of a light, let me know what you think. Thanks for looking (can you spot all the animals/monsters?).

Commander Aht and Kay the ranger are visiting the Ebba monastery on their way to the Black Falcon outpost near the Whispering Woods. They request to stay the night here and ask if they can join for dinner. The monks are just preparing diner, although some have apparently already started eating while others are still working.

Deep in the Whispering Woods, you better don’t take a wrong turn, or trying to cross it without a guide. A small Black Falcon patrol finds itself lost in the woods. The translucent purple ‘Stera’ mushrooms are used in many magic potions, as a natural defense, the spores they produce turn some other types of mushrooms into flesh eating ones. A special kind of tactic is needed to defends against them, unfortunately that is not known to many... Build for the High Fantasy category Summer Joust 2021. The wrong turn by Ids, on Flickr Thanks for watching.

Hello, for the Asian category of the Summer Joust competition I made an Inari Shrine. An Inari shrine, located at the edge of the forest, the rice field are nearby as well as the local samurai. Let me know what You think and thanks for watching. I tried to include as much realistic details as possible, such as a correct torii design and foxes (associated with the shrine) to flank the entrance, here are some reference picture of a shrine, torii (red gate) and the city/castle gate:

The King has enough of those grumpy dwarves, he has send his funniest jesters down the mine shaft to cheer them up. Although it remains to be seen how successful it is. I also used some 12V (train) lighting for the door and windows in the mine shaft. (Build for the 12x12 vignette category Summer Joust 2021 contest on flickr) It's a mine to behold by Ids, on Flickr Some more detailed pictures: And a shot with a little less light to see the 12V lights:
