  1. Well done on the A4 class locomotive. Here's to hoping LEGO does this one. Supported.
  2. Stellar work on scaling up the classic set. The size and detail work make this an outstanding display piece. By adding in all the play features and retaining the ability to open up the back to access the courtyard makes it that much more impressive. Brick on!
  3. Nothing jumps out to me that would improve your rendition of Tir Asleen. The detail level is about perfect. I may live in the United States now, but I resided in the NRW near Aachen when I joined Eurobricks. I like trains and had been on the local freiwillige feuerwehr. I put them together and thus my handle here.
  4. Recently, the nation of Tosul conducted testing of a new class of ICBM. Due to various weather conditions and active measures, the location of the ICBM launch was a mystery. An agent was inserted into Tosul to ascertain the location of the facility. While investigating the region of the launch, the agent hears rumors of another upcoming test. A convoy of vehicles, including one with a new type of missile passes near the town. Knowing the local terrain, the agent hops on his motorbike and gets to a position that he feels will allow him to place a tracker. As dusk approaches, the truck hauling another ICBM to the launch site slows to cross a narrow, wet bridge that is weight limited. Hidden by the spray from the waterfall, the agent pulls himself up to the road, unseen by the cold, bored, and complacent guards. Rolling under the crawling trailer, he plants a Brick Positioning System tracking beacon. His task complete, the glorious agent dives into the cold river and makes his escape unseen. Seven hours later, the tracker on the trailer halts for a few hours before dawn. The agent notes the location, then watches as the tracker retraces its route back through the mountains. Shivering in the cold, he observes the empty trailer pass his position and smiles. The stop was where they unloaded the ICBM. He's got the location of the missile facility. From a satellite phone, he calls a dead drop number and leaves the coordinates. Thanks to a cunning agent of PDSRE, the KLR had determined the coordinates of the launch site.
  5. Superb battle scene. The church is great, the minifig wonderful, and I love how you build your cannon.
  6. A beast of a GTEL! You crammed all that power and equipment in the locomotive is phenomenal. Great work on the details too.
  7. Fantastic modular toy shop. The details, both inside and outside are well thought out and visually attractive. I like the toy "Child" Yoda dolls in the Star Wars section.
  8. Good looking little caravel. The colors fit the armada theme well.
  9. Quite the imperial outpost. This is a well detailed MOC. Not only is the exterior complete, you've built an interior too. I like how the actual buildings and battlements are 45 degrees offset from the base.
  10. Oooh, well done. Great detail work all around on Tir Asleen. And yes, welcome to Eurobricks.
  11. While parts may not have a LEGO logo on them, on the underside there is often printing that indicates the mould. It may take a while, but one can begin to tell the real LEGO font and sizing, but it helps me.
  12. PDSRE intelligence agents have infiltrated the Tosul rocket test facility. Their report on the location will be up within 2 weeks (23 June).
  13. Stunning hotel. Reminds me of the one near King's Cross in downtown London. Great work the details.
  14. Looking good. I will echo @Mandalorianknight's comments about tiles for the flooring. They will really improve the MOC. Studs are more for rough floors or outdoors in my opinion. I do like your solution for the window bracing. Can't wait to see the updates.
  15. Well done. It's not often we see industrial trains like this here. The 141 class locomotive is a bright, nearly garish scheme. The ammonia tankers look good. The bright orange does do well as the stripe color.
  16. Wow! SSF 141 is quite the contractor. Helicopters, tanks, and enough arms, to well, start a small war.
  17. Well done. Suitably creepy and full of fun Easter eggs.
  18. Fitting for the Wolfpack. It has a viking feel, but still retains some of the Wolfpack flair.
  19. Simple looking building, but all the foliage around it and the NPU with the fence really makes the building something.
  20. Superb recreation of the Castle of Cagliostro. I know it would be too much asking for the lake to be drained to find the treasure. Still, all the details you crammed into this micro scale build are phenomenal. The forced perspective with the town, looking from the clock tower is great. You even managed to put in an auto-gyro!
  21. Grazie.
  22. Thanks @ParmBrick You should give in and buy a set of the street baseplates. Give them a try and see if you like them. I've used them for lots of builds here with GBW. They work well for the subject matter.
  23. I like the design and how you used the Death Star at the rear of your Goliath mechanized spider. With the additional greebling, the back does appear comical to me. I almost expect to see gouts of flame from the exhaust system. Overall though, the mix of the black with classic space is what gives me the wrong impression. I completely understand not having the long curved pieces in the right color and substituting for what you have on hand. The black does look menacing from the front as I mentioned. Great work on this. My only complaint was with the leg color.
  24. @Ts__ Good video about the hump yard. My Deutsche is rusty, but I got the gist of the video. Thanks for sharing. That's a fine yard.
  25. I like this. Simple, modern European small town aesthetic. The corner stones, windows, and lines fit my memories perfectly. The added pool and lawn tractor finish this MOC.
