  1. Be mindful. I have two credit cards (with different banks). One charges a currency conversion for orders from LEGO S@H and the other doesn't (so obviously I use the one that doesn't).
  2. Wonderful build. Lots of great details and the water is brilliant!
  3. I posted the news based on the email I received directly from Big W this morning with a link to the catalogue (which others have already shared here). Nothing unofficial or dodgy. I didn't post the link as I assumed everyone was receiving the email.
  4. The Big W catalogue is up. Lego starts pg 43. Seems to be about 20-30% off.
  5. Absolutely amazing. That is four months well spent in my opinion.
  6. Lol. Nice work.
  7. Fantastic build. I love it. It looks very imposing and the gatehouse with bridges is wonderfully done.
  8. Thanks. Yes, I didn't notice the gap in the roof until the photo editing stage so I'll be mindful of that in the future (I didn't build the house to be viewed from the back so I left it empty). Us Aussies are thinking about a GoH collaboration sometime which should be interesting. Although I think I'm outnumbered as most of them like to dwell in the shadows of Nocturnus.
  9. Nice MOC. I like the fence technique and the ground work.
  10. As others have said the wagon design is well done.
  11. The minifig posing when they are running to hide is fantastic. Great work.
  12. Wonderful build. The fountain is great.
  13. Very nice scene. I like the colour choices.
  14. Thanks everyone, I did enjoy this build as I hadn't done a farm before.
  15. Hi All, Have just posted a new build looking for some credits. http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=108937 • Architecture - Roofing • Landscape Design - Trees • Agriculture and Zoology - Raising Livestock Thanks.
  16. Hi All, This is our (my wife does the writing and I do the building) first story build for my sig-fig Sebastian. For this build I'd like to apply for the following UoP DoH credits: • Architecture - Roofing • Landscape Design - Trees • Agriculture and Zoology - Raising Livestock Story and pictures below. Thanks. A light breeze stirred through the leaves of the trees and a small smile played across the lips of a young boy throwing a ball time after time to his dog, a boundless ball of energy. Neither seemed to tire of the game, but Sebastian’s smile was not born of his enjoyment of the simple game of fetch, but rather of the daydream that he was lost in. In his mind’s eye Sebastian could see himself astride a magnificent white steed, armour gleaming and lance raised as he met the fiery gaze of a dragon with steel in his eyes. The insistent barking of Hugo snapped him back into reality and his shoulders drooped slightly as he took in his surroundings – his father, Tomas and mother, Georgia, hard at work, as they were every day on the farm. Sebastian sighed as he threw the ball once more, wishing as he did every day that his life held more than carrying on the family farm. He yearned with every ounce of his soul to travel to cities beyond his imagining and fight in the grand battles he had heard minstrels tell of. He knew his father had seen many things he did not speak of when he was forced to serve in the army many years before and more than anything he wanted to live a life that held secrets, excitement and danger. He wanted to feel alive. The ball suddenly fell from Hugo’s mouth and one ear cocked as the sound of horse’s hooves could be heard approaching from the distance. Hugo began to dance madly in circles, excited by the prospect of a new playmate and driven half mad by the smell of a strange animal. The family paused in their tasks; riders rarely passed the isolated farmhouse, their appearance usually signifying some emergency. Not this time. It was not a village messenger or a far off neighbour approaching, but a stranger, features and form hidden by a dark green cloak. Sebastian squinted his eyes trying to make out more detail, but the horse cantered past, leaving dust in its wake and Sebastian wondering if he had imagined that long lock of brown hair escaping the hood…
  17. Nice build. I love the action and the details in the build.
  18. Fantastic building and landscape.
  19. Oh my what awesome minifig posing. Fantastic work!
  20. I was thinking of joining the challenge although I have to get my head around the premise of this first. I assume for these challenges our sig-figs don't need to be involved.
  21. Thanks. The torso is from set 7189 that was part of the Kingdoms line.
  22. I like the colour. It is intentional with other elements to break it up. Looks very impenetrable.
