  1. Best of luck with the reno and that 8 week timeline!
  2. I agree. Nearly any of us could be featured for this!
  3. Nice little build! I love the action and minifig posing.
  4. You're showing a lot of improvement! I think the decision to focus on quality rather than size was a good one.
  5. Gorgeous build! The scale and detail is impressive!
  6. I'be been enjoying the weekly selection of builds. Other ideas I like: - featured builders - tutorials / featured techniques - AoM (say, a few examples of the progression of stages of farming) - UoP (say, a few examples of one of the required builds) - Historican Settlements (Task 4) -- feature member-built settlements - thematic sets of builds -- swamps, trees, taverns, stables, graveyards, etc. - legendary builds/builders of Historica, like the lighthouse of Barqa - have members submit proposals for features, with links to the relevant builds
  7. Very cool series! The change in landscape is nice, and I've really enjoyed the shift in Minifig activities, indoor and exterior, through the series. Are you familiar with Monet's Haystack series and his Rouen Cathedral series? Monet is not really my jam, but your work here reminded me of his studies of shifting light. That's the only thing I wish this series had (and would be seriously difficult/a pain to do -- capture the different lighting qualities of the seasons.) Ok, I'm rambling. Great work, as always. :)
  8. Fabulous wooden building! I really enjoy the shape and the use of dark brown mixed in.
  9. Beautiful build! There are so many details to enjoy -- the trees, the architectural details of the chapel, that roof, the stone wall, the existing tombstone, and of course the grave itself. Your work continues to be an inspiration.
  10. Super cool build! Excellent work interpreting the inspiration picture into bricks.
  11. Reinheitsgebot! Great build -- I seriously love all the details of the brewing process. Is that malting barley in the attic?
  12. Nicely done little scene. The fallen pillar is a nice touch. I agree with Kai that the road is a bit BOLOCs, but it's a minor distraction. +1 for the UoP credits. The foliage is a bit smaller than I'd like, but it's well done.
  13. I love all the vegetation in this build! Nice work with the Kali architecture, too. I agree with brickcurve, some groundscaping would improve the build, but I really like the build overall.
  14. Wow! The interior scene is very nice, but that Arch -- gorgeous work! Looking forward to more Resistance stories!
  15. A: one point each to Gideon, Halhi, and Soccerkid. B: one point each to Extrius, Gideon, and Soccerkid. C: one point each to Halhi, LittleJohn, and Simon S.
  16. Gorgeous foliage work! I really like the color choices for this build -- it feels very cohesive. The bark work on the trees is fantastic, but as others pointed out, it gets lost in the white background. The green background you did up helps, but changes the color balance of the build. Perhaps a neutral gray?
  17. Nice work with the elemental effects -- the frost breath and the fire wall.
  18. I'd like to claim UoP credit for: DIssent at the Blue Dolphin Inn Architecture: Wall Techniques (for the round tile walls) General Building: Interior Design Anthropology: Village Life
  19. New build for Ruadh: DIssent at the Blue Dolphin Inn
  20. Nice build! The vultures are fantastic, as are the camel packs. UoP +1.
  21. This build is for HSS Hospitality - Lodging - Inn. ---------- At the Blue Dolphin Inn of Ruadh, the mood is dark. The oppression of the Desert King is all anyone talks about. Downstairs, the proprietress constantly monitors for DK spies while guests enjoy the firepit and the bathing rooms. Upstairs, two prostitutes gossip outside the private rooms while waiting for evening clients. In the cheaper shared room, two Kaliphlinites relate their run-ins with the DK. The bathing room might be a place to cleanse and relax, but it is also a place to plot resistance. ---------- A recent trip to Japan inspired a lot of this build, including many of the interior details, like the futon beds, cushions, fireplace, and bathing rooms. The exterior loosely references Kinkaku-ji (the Golden Pavilion). The round tile wall technique is inspired by NiceMarmot, and JacobNion was an influence for the rough walls.

  22. Simple but effective build. The blacklight effect is absolutely brilliant! I did have a moment of panic, before reading the photo spoilers, that a new grass color had come out that I would have to scramble to buy. UoP +1
  23. Brilliant work on the beach vignette, and the main build is gorgeous! I love the use of the 1x2 plates on the tower and wall -- they add great texture and really help to capture that "rusticated brick" look.
  24. Thank you! Thanks for the +1s! Thank you! Thanks Kai! Thanks! I'll take the sun over snow any day! Thank you, Lord Vlad! Thanks! Thank you! May the High Council prevail! Yay! Thank you -- it's a very specific mood, and I'm glad it came through in the build. Thanks soccerkid! Haha yeah I think I used most of the tan grasses I have. Thanks! Thank you! I wish I could take credit for the weird yellow -- someone told me, when I was just starting out, to keep my eyes open for the old light yellow to use with the tan. Thanks Gideon! I'm still working on stockpiling light yellow bricks for other builds.
  25. Beautiful build! I like the awning and the way you've framed out the windows, and the action shots are great!
