    Thanks! :) Thank you! :) Thanks! :) Thanks Isaac! Yeah, I am kinda bummed with the trees being having so few leaves, but I didn't have the drive to order more as I had just gotten an order for this build. Thanks again! :) Thanks! Those are actually his beehives that he has on his roof, it does kinda look like chimney's though. :/ Thanks again! Thank you! Unfortunately I didn't have the time or pieces to create an interior. Much appreciated! Thanks! Glad you noticed the small details like those triangular windows, which were quite tricky, and yes, I prefer barrels to brick rounds, because it gives a better texture IMO. Yeah, I still love EB, but I am a little disappointed with all the set reviews and not so many mocs. Thanks again! :) Thanks! :) That's the goal! Glad it came through! :)

    Hello! This is my seventh of 19 posts I will be doing, where I will be building my way through the Hobbit story, one chapter per post, I will do this over the course of the year... Here is my build of Beorn's House for my Hobbit Project! It took me 4 months of building (5 months total), is around 7,500 pieces and the maximum base size is 105 x 56. It was a ton of fun to build and I am pleased with the result. :) I was gonna bring this to BFAL, but that was 4 months ago. This is my first build of the year, and the first post that I actually built in time of having a flickr account. With this and one other build, I will be taking a break from my Hobbit Project for 2-3 months to build regular castle for a while. :) Some great inspiration came from builders like Patrick B and Simon NH for all the tools and animals on the ground. For the house itself, I got most of my inspiration from Weta Workshop's model, but I also looked closely at some of the great builds of Beorn's House by Dunedain98, Patrick B, and Caleb W's build for Caleb and Graeme's collab Hobbit Project which you should check out. :) Also, a huge thanks to the guys who helped me with all 20 WIPs I sent throughout the building process! :) I hope you enjoy! To my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be the glory! :D Also, how do you add pictures from a private flickr photo? Thanks!

    Great work guys! Excellent work all around! :)

    Looking good! Nice shaping, and nice colors, especially that olive. :) I am not a big fan of the two tan pieces in the landscape, but it is a minor thing. And yeah, a handle would be nice. ;) Keep it up! :)

    Yep! Make sure you get to ten posts quick so you can maximize the benefits of using EB, I got my account back in mid 2016, but didn't really use it until early 2017, because of the ten post rule. :)
  6. TheLordOfBricks
    Welcome to EB man! :)
  7. TheLordOfBricks
    Ooh, nice! Love all the textures here! :D Keep it up! :D
  8. TheLordOfBricks
    Adorable! Really love those steps, I,ve always thought that piece would make some good micro steps, just haven't done it yet. Overall awesome job!
  9. TheLordOfBricks
    Really nice! That arch is beautiful, and the lovely horse to top it off. :) The colors and textures are great too! The boat is simple and great too. :) Keep it up! :)

    Hey, I saw you took down your post about the contests, but just so you can get a feel for what the contests are like, I'll put some links here like I said I would. The Tourney, The Summer Joust, Middle Earth Lego Olympics, Colosal Battle Contest, Colosal Castle Contest. *Note, these are past contests, minus The Tourney, which is going on, and they might extend the deadline due to the number of entries. :)
  11. TheLordOfBricks
    No problem! I'll get links sometime soon, and share them on here so you can look at them closer. :)
  12. TheLordOfBricks
    Yep! There are contests basically the whole way through the year! :) January-February is the Tourney, April-May is a Middle Earth contest called MELO, June-July is a pretty big contest called The Summer Joust, August is The Colossal Battle Contest, A small break for September and October, as school starts back for a lot of the TFOLs like me. ;) And finally the CCC which is November and December. These are some of the major castle contests throughout the year. :) There are some minor contests you can sometimes find as well. :)

    Hello! Here is a scene I built of a small town section of bree! This is my 6th and final CCC entry! It will be in the village life category! So, about the build, it is on a 35 x 35 base with a stud overhang on two sides, so it fits in 36 x 36. :) I estimate it being around 2000 pieces that are used in this. :) I had fun experimenting with a bunch of wacky angles, and I like the sagging feel that I got. It was a lot of fun to build, so I hope you enjoy! :D Pics: Mainly inspired by Legonardo and The Maestro's excellent builds. :) Unfortunately, because I had to finish this tonight, the lighting didn't turn out too great, but thanks to Classical Bricks, the edit still turned out great for the main pic, but the other two are kind of lacking. I am still really pleased with the build though. :) C&C Appreciated! I hope you enjoyed! To God be the glory!

    Wow! Very nice work! Those trees look great! The colors all around are great, but my favorite part has to be the stonework, you captured a really nice look with those. :D Excellent first moc! :)
  15. TheLordOfBricks
    Thanks you two! :)

    Thanks everyone! Glad you like it!

    Hello! This is my ninth of 19 posts I will be doing, where I will be building my way through the Hobbit story, one chapter per post, I will do this over the course of the year... This is also my fifth CCCXV entry! It will be in the ye olde switcheroo category! So, about the build. I did skip a few chapters, but I wanted to build this for the CCC, so here it is. :) The final build size is 48 x 46, so it just fit in the size limitations. :) This is my second to last build for the CCC, and unfortunately, I just don't have time to do Beorn's House now, but I will most likely bring it to BFAL. :) It was a lot of fun to build, so I hope you enjoy! :D Pics: Main inspiration is Graham Gidman's wonderful Barrels scene rendition! :) C&C Appreciated! I hope you enjoyed! To God be the glory!

    Thanks!
  19. TheLordOfBricks
    Thanks everyone! @runnybabbit223 Yep, that is The Maestro's design. :) @Fletcher Floyd Yeah, agreed. Although, there aren't as many entries in general this year, which is a little disappointing, but good if you are competing... ;)

    Hello! Here I have built an 8 x 8 vig! Everything fits in the 8 x 8 base, except for about a stud on each side with the leaves, which is allowed. :) This is also my fourth CCCXV entry! It will be in the castle vignette category! (duh) ;) Pics: I am limited to three pics for a vig in the CCC, so that is all there is... :) C&C Appreciated! I hope you enjoyed! To God be the glory!
  21. TheLordOfBricks
    Thanks! Glad you like it! Thanks! Yup, it does look comfy, if only it weren't plastic. ;)

    Hello! This is my third of 19 posts I will be doing, where I will be building my way through the Hobbit story, one chapter per post, I will do this over the course of the year... This is also my second CCCXV entry! It will be in the fantasy fortress category! So, about the build. This build is actually a redo of this chapter, as I wasn't content with my previous attempt being up to the quality of the rest of the builds. So, this build's size is 46 x 26, and I would estimate I used around 2000 pieces. It was a lot of fun to build, so I hope you enjoy! :D Pics: Figless to show the floor pattern: So, I like this build, and it was really interesting to create, because I didn't use a single hinge anywhere in this build! :D Yeah, all of these round curves, and not a single hinge... :D So, that wasn't as much a challenge in the main rounded section of the build, but surprisingly, it was tough not to use something in the elvish rounded architecture at the back... :) Also, shoutout to Toltomeja's round path design, and Isaac and John Snyder's bench design that the dwarves are sitting on... :D C&C Appreciated! I hope you enjoyed! To God be the glory!

    Thanks Graham! Glad you like it! :D Thanks pantelis! :D Much appreciated!

    Ohhh, my bad, it isn't tan, the wheat looks awesome! My small nitpick is the bright color intermingled with the olive to the right of the rocky section, personally, it stand out a little too much, and it doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the landscape. Personally, I would probably have gone with dk. tan, to go with the olive green. Don't get me wrong, this is a really great build, just a small suggestion! :D
  25. TheLordOfBricks
    Looks nice! I love the colors here! The windmill roof looks really nice for a curved roof! Also, very nice wheat fields. :) My one nitpick is the reg. tan in the landscape, I think it is a litte too bright, and looks slightly out of place... Overall though, awesome build! :D
