Hey Guys! This contest is a great idea! Good luck everyone taking part! I have some questions too. How do you define local? Am I allowed to pick a building only from the village/town/city where I live? Or only from my home country? Or from anywhere I choose? Did you use the title "Local Landmarks" to encourage us to pick the most symbolic buildings of any location?

Oh my Brick! Wow! I join CM4Sci and congratulate to everyone who participated in the contest! You did all superb, producing contest entries from scratch in such a short notice. You must be all brilliant LEGO enthusiasts! The first place was really beyond all my expectations! A big THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to browse through all the entries, picking those which they liked the best! I really liked those posts which told why they cast (or didn't) their vote on a particular entry. (I have to admit I wanted to cast my votes in the last minutes but to my biggest surprise the voting was already closed.) Of course a big THANK YOU goes to the organizers! Thank you for organizing and walking through this Digital Contest! Looking forward to more!

Entry # 33: BRICKerature Hello Fellows in Brick! Here I present my project for the 2016 Digital Design Contest. Do you like playing with LEGO bricks? Do you like reading? Then this is your LEGO theme! You don't like either? This might be a way to get involed with both. There are so many great works in literature, the number of sets included into this theme could be infinite. My prototype project features three sets: Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels and Ernest Hemmingway's The Old Man and the Sea. The best known balcony scene of history set consists of 1062 pieces plus 2 minifigures: The same from a different angle: The sea scene set of the Hemmingway novel consists of 446 pieces plus 1 minifigure: The Lilliput scene set of Gulliver's Travels consists of 367 pieces plus 4 minifigures: Here are the three sets together to see the proportions: Get your books and bricks ready. Build a story! Here's the ZIP-ed MLCad file of the project. (Note that this is a raw model, texturing and figure positioning was finished in the rendering software.) You might get a missing parts message. It is because I hunted for some parts separately. If you give me a list of your missing parts I'll send them to you somehow. brickerature.zip The altered pieces I used: 99207 Bracket 1x2-2x2 up in reddish brown 99207 Bracket 1x2-2x2 up in tan 60481 Slope Brick 65 2x1x2 in sand green 11477 Slope Brick Curved 2x1 in sand green 60477 Slope Brick 18 4x1 in sand green Thank you for reading through this project! If you liked it please give your vote on it! Congratulations to all the fellow builders taking part in this contest, they all did super work!
