Captain Rijsk's Unfortunate Day, Part 3 - Again?
Elostirion replied to Legostone's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Very nice scene, great work! The curving and the cannons of the ship look great to me. And what a poor shark this is. :-) And really no reason not to reuse this wonderful background! -

Restoring Order, Mesabi Landing [Part Two]
Elostirion replied to Ayrlego's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
What a fantastic series of microbuilds, along with some great story. Superb work! I really love the contrast between Port Woodhouse (rather friendly) and Mesabi Landing (rather harsh in appearance) as displayed between first and last scene. Similar shots, yet different flair. Great. The fish market is really cool, the studs for the horizontal brown plates are a bit disturbing and I think tiles would have worked better, but really that's all I can criticize. Great use of the sail, that irregular base is superbly smooth, the fish and palmtrees work great. Nice scene. -
Just realised I haven't commented yet and told you that it's a really nice MOC! Only thing I miss are one or two more minifigs. The cobbles integrated into the mud, with a mix of both plates and tiles for dark tan, looks fantatstic! The bones and olive green sparse flowers add to the general atmosphere and vibe. Great work.

@Drunknok: hairpiece Head 1 Head 2 Body 1 Didn't find the brown body-torso, might be from a LOTR-orc indeed. Legs @Bregir: Thanks for the kind feedback. :-)

Thank you! Glad the dynamic of the scene worked out so well. Bricklink. I think the legs are from some CMF, and the torsos and heads might be from pirates of the caribbean, but really not sure. If you are interested I might scan my orders for some links or part ids. Thanks for the kind words about the MOC. Thank you - but here is the next question: Who will help me answer the first one? :-) Yeah, let's go for the natives! Thanks for the great words, and get yourself some olive green, they are well worth it. Thank you, setting a colour-scheme and introducing the natives-minifigs was the whole point of this scene. :-) Thank you, a dynamic minifig posing was important, happy it turned out so well! :-)

The Eslandolan sails do wonders, and the ship is very well-built all around!

I'd definitely say this is one of the best orchids we have seen in the whole challenge. Wonderful work. The whole MOC is fantastic, the ruins, the flowers around, the water, the canoe and your group are splendid. As is the story (and yes, I did read it - and it gave me quite a few chuckles actually). I am quite sad you did not make the deadline, but with great MOCs that may often be the case.

Really cool storyline and a great MOC with good shots to present it. Great work here!

Thank you. :-) Thanks a lot - I copied that cobblestone technique from someone somewhere on flickr (not the colours, but the arrangement). Thank you. Those sand blue 1x1 tiles were a purchase in Lego store Germany (more than a year ago by now), and I really had to use them at some point. Thank you and yes, she was intended to look somewhat angry, but cake-throwing-angry? I don't kow. :-) Thanks! 17th century Lisboa with some influence from Byzantine empire was the goal, so having roman vibes is perfect. :-) Thanks for all the praise, glad you like the statue. I bought those sand blue tiles in Legoland a while ago and really had to use them. :-) Thank you, I like doing a superb job. :-)) Thank you! And glad you love the statue, I was never 100% sure about it... :-) Thanks so much, and happy to hear you like those minifigs. Quite an effort everytime, so really happy to hear it was worth it. :-) Again I am rather impressed that the statue turned out this great. Thank you! :-)

[OL-FB] Preparing for Another Shipyard
Elostirion replied to Capn Frank's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Nice little beach scene. Clever idea to integrate the 16x16 baseplate. -
[Cor - Feb FB] Autumn Trading House, Jameston
Elostirion replied to Ayrlego's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Simply and absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend wouldn't even believe me it's digital... Marvellous colour choice, those two greens mix perfectly. The window frames in the lower floor are brilliant. Fantastic wall texturing, nice fence, nice tree, flawless roof (amazing mix of colours for the roof), nice carriage. No criticism from my side, just amazement. -

[COR-FB-Class 8 Ship] Troop Transport RSND "Eagle"
Elostirion replied to LM71Blackbird's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Superb ship, and I definitely agree with Bregir that it does not deserve to vanish here and not get any comments. It definitely deserves credit, so here you go: Great work! :-) I am not much of a ship building veteran, so I am afraid I cannot provide any feedback, except to say: I like it, please keep it up. -

Wonderful small house, and great to see it recreated. The ship is quite fantastic, amazing work. -
[SR-FB] Becoming a Landlubber
Elostirion replied to Roadmonkeytj's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Nice work. Clean execution, looks really nice. Some of the dark green plants are a bit dusty, I'd suggest to clean them, e.g. with a paintbrush. The roof is really cool, the flowers and vines add a lot as well - and you placed glass behind the windows, wonderful! :-)- 10 replies

[COR-FB] King's Harbour Boatsheds
Elostirion replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Great idea for a very clean and clever MOC. I sure like it. I think some more points of imperfection (a small crack in the roof, some cobblestones, something floating in the water, a bit of dirt on the ground, a seagull, etc.) would have added a lot to the MOC. The placing and posing of the minifigures is fantastic, especially the guy with the saw and the other guy carrying in some wood are amazingly well done. Will we see the ship that is being built inside in another MOC? :-)- 2 replies

Not a challenge entry anymore, but unfortunately we did not see many entries (if any at all) featuring the living natives of Celestia. I hope some motivated builders out here will help me explore them, their culture and their fate further. Despite the challenge being over. :-) Native Huntsmen, Celestia

Seeing the natives of Celestia, hunting, somewhere in the inner regions of the island, it is rather hard to believe they were once the highly civilized ancient culture of which the ruins of huge temple complexes have recently been discovered on the island. Will Halosians soon find out more about both history and fate of the Celestians, or will the Halosians in their blind strive for colonial expansion keep ignoring the indigineous people of the islands they colonize?
