  1. Very nice, love the idea and so well executed. The statue is solid and I like the use of the bat arms. Also, those gray eggs are perfect as ornaments!
  2. Maybe some of you remembered Ben Pitchford's huge Samurai Village, this year he's back with another amazing layout! Check out all the details in History Forum!
  3. It's been years since Besdarc set foot in his birthplace, Illyria. Finally home, but it wasn't as it used to be. Since Revolword was defeated Varlyrio has become quite secluded from the other Guilds. Maybe that was one of the reasons he didn't come back until now. Not that it was his intention to come here, he just managed to sneak on a ship sailing back from En Eglïam and it just set course to Varlyrio. When he sneaked off the ship he went for the Garra tower near the Lyrviora Bridge. From up there he could get a clear view over the city. It was also a way to get in contact with his spies. He noticed how well guarded the city was nowadays. It wouldn't be easy to get in contact with his men. He took a small mirror out of is satchel and shined towards the house across the river. Suddenly a glider appeared, which meant his men were still here. He wasn't the only one who appeared though. Guards appeared from everywhere. Archers trying to shoot down the Glider... Swordmen in pursuit... And even heavy pikeman checking boats and carts... So it was a good thing he already went straight to his friend Ezio. To tell him personally about his findings so he could send a raven to Gyrin. These findings of newly discovered lands needed to be told. But somehow someone strongly disagreed with this. Even worse was that he knew. About what Besdarc had seen and he was patiently waiting for him to sign his man. He felt so stupid for falling into such a trap. He endangered all his men by giving the sign. But he couldn't have known... He quickly buried that thought, because it was time to help Ezio and the others before they're all captured or killed. And after that's done time to figure out who's behind all this... I originally built this for Comic Con as an Assassins Creed display, but I also thought of using it as a Varlyrio moc. Which fits there perfectly:
  4. The fishing store has finally been revealed in all it's glory at the LEGO Fan Media Days in Billund! Join the discussion and see more pictures in the Town Forum!
  5. The surprising look on the guard's face is quite explainable. It's not every day that you see someone speeding towards you in the dessert wich such incredible speed! This fun build by Gunman, is filled with a lot of nice piece usages like Maggie's head and the chima parts in the sand. There are also some funny surprises inside the wall, so make sure to check out the topic in the Guilds of Historica subforum!
  6. I'll be attending Pareds de Coura Fanweekend next week. And there I'll be giving a short presentation about the Guilds of Historica. It would help if some of you guys could provide me with some information. -First build and last build, or something similar, to show the progress you've made over the years/months you've been building for the Guilds -Why are you a contributing member, what made you join and what are the largest appeals of the project.
  7. Great work, so much to see in a tiny space! I really like the rock part you've used above the stove and the hood used as a basket is a very nice touch!
  8. Official for sure! Gives us some time to have a look at all the fantastic entries of the last book and make up a story towards the next one!
  9. Oh yeah, looking forward to that!!
  10. The last challenge is over and there are a lot of stunning entries out there. Like the one made by Henjin_Quilones: Make sure to check his builds and story and while you'll strolling around there you'll come across a lot more great entries!
  11. Amazing entries so far guys!!
  12. That's still no reason to post in this topic, especially when a moderator told not to. Just feast your eyes on it and move on. And a hall of fame would become enormous because there's just too much great stuff to find here. Closing this for now. If maydayartist returns he can request to open it again.
  13. Hi Matty, Welcome! From what I've seen your posting is quite mature so there's nothing to worry about so far. But keep in mind that Eurobricks is an adult community. So displaying your age isn't a good idea.
  14. Fantastic, love the details! Microscale building can be hard, but you've nailed it!
  15. While clicking on the topic title I expected something bigger. But although it's smaller than expected, Sunder pleasantly surprised me with this detailed microscale castle! Make sure to check out the details in History Forum, because there's plenty of other good photos to enjoy!
  16. There she is, revealed in all her glory. 71042 The Silent Mary from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales! Weighing in at 2,200 pieces for $199.99USD, she can be expected to hit your port on the 1st of April 2017 (no fooling!). Get more details in the Pirates Forum!
  17. Of course, feel free to spice it up! Preferably yes, but it's all about making awesome minifig combinations. And yes, not printing or custom stuff. I've added the link from the previous contest for inspiration. I think that there's a lot of styles we haven't really covered yet. For example Feudal Japan, yes occasionally it comes across in Kalphlin but that's still way more Persian based. And don't forget civilizations that were highly advanced like the Inca's. Well, a perfect opportunity to boost those shipbuilding skills of yours. I don't really see that problem. It's still fantasy based, but the focus in this challenge just doesn't lies on the mainland. As the reference to BoB's, to be honest I haven't been following that, but that has a more pirate like vibe to me. You are free to use your sigfig of course and live there. But the main focus is that it should be a temporary place to live at, a safe haven for the time being. Hoping and waiting for better days to come. And about adding the newly discovered lands, it could be that we add the winner(s) to the map. Like we previously did with the Varlyrio challenge. And don't apologize for saying your thoughts, it's an open community and we are always open for feedback and suggestions of all sort! 5 5
  18. Good to hear, saw some photos popping up on Flickr so I was hoping you might come back!
  19. This is so much fun to look at. Especially seeing the improvement of building and photo skills! I was also thinking of making a post like. Not to just show all my builds, but to connect them to each other storywise.
