Overhang is fine, but I'm afraid you've indeed missed the Bilbo part. The whole category was about him. Maybe you could post it in B: reunion at Caradhras((Or add Bilbo for cat C.)) Just an idea Because it's a great scene. The fig placement is very good and I'm especially fond of the snotted snow!

Book II Challenge III Dwarven Affairs
Ecclesiastes replied to Ecclesiastes's topic in Guilds of Historica
Are you sure? Because I spoke to you. Probably the introducing part from me wasn't that clear. Post away! And good to hear! -
All the best Simon!! It was great having you here. Don't forgot to do some lurking now and than(to avoid those awful dark ages)!
-
Just make an old version yourself! Both is ok! And the majority of the elves left... Complex is not problem, some sets are complex as well. Well it's the perfect category for everyone with a limited collection. But I admit, I was expecting to see some more entries. Especially for category A. Lots of members here with lotr and hobbit set wishes... If you finished the topics, just send a pm and let me know what title you like to change!

TLC had there reasons for not allowing market stalls. And although I enjoyed the market stalls as well, everything sold there is cheaper on bricklink. Yes it was there

Challenge III isn't even open for a week yet, but Moc Expert Legonardo already kicked off with this amazing statue. Especially all the bricks placed in different angles makes that you keep watching this piece of art to find out how he did it! Check it out in GoH!

Would you like the Vikings theme to return?
Ecclesiastes replied to Alfadas's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Before starting a topic like this, please do a little bit of research and you'll find a topic about this. And indeed the 2015 added suggest there are rumors about this... Merged with the old topic! -
No, a model can only be used in one category!

Continuing their trip thru Vanhorn’s enchanted forests, Adam and Terryn stumble across a very strange and old watermill, with crumbling walls and a curved roof. Tiered, hungry and with the darkness of the night coming quickly, they decided to ask if they can spent the night… GoH member cesbrick just keeps on building marvelous houses. The level of detail is amazing as is the use of colors. Check out more details in Historica!

Book II Challenge III Dwarven Affairs
Ecclesiastes replied to Ecclesiastes's topic in Guilds of Historica
Thanks for all the kind words guys But don't forget, the last two builds are build by kabel. And especially his ships is a beauty. Not to forget the sail design! AS FOR NOW EVERYONE IS FREE TO CHOOSE A SIDE TO JOIN. IF ONE SIDE GETS TO POPULAR THE SIGN UP FOR THAT SIDE WILL BE CLOSED! It doesn't include a border. No. No standard rules this time, we'll see how this works out Yes it's indeed jsut a max. size. But you don't have to use those short legs. I didn't but the beards make them look dwarvish enough. Lego should make a new size of legs, a medium. So dwarves for you?! Feel free to ask a member to make a collab. But it's not necessary as you could make up a diplomatic story. I think dwarves, will suit you fine. Looking forward to see what you'll build! O men, that's hard for me as well. All those difficult names. I'll try to make a short list this week of the characters -
Join the cause of men or fight side by side with the dwarves in Historica!

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Part 1 Part 2 Amortug's Throneroom. "Feast my friends! Hazarmaveth reached the Avalonian border underground. So let's get fat and drunk for this historic occasion. Tomorrow we'll ride out to join them for our noble cause!" All the council members who voted for an Avalonian invasion were invited by Tartan, the ruler of Amortug. Knowing this could be their last feast they stuffed themselves untill they almost had to puke. Which isn't uncommon for large dwarven feasts. Just puke and eat on! Why shouldn't you try everything that's on the table. And with a filled belly you can't do that... Inside the citadel, commanders were having a conversation about their plans "When will Sir Infernum arrive?" He's one of the the few Heroes who saw that our cause is what's best for Mitgardia" "I received a message an hour ago. He was summoned by Chorian to come to Valholl." "What? Does Chorian know about our plans?" "Impossible, all the Acirhon located in the city are being shadowed constantly. And only commanders and council members are aware of the plans..." Inside the barracks. "Get well rested and fill your bellies well said the captain." "The last time he said that was when Revolword invaded our lands." "Yes that's going to be a fight again..." He wasn't certain yet but Chorian suspected the dwarves were up to something. That's why he let Sir Infernum come to Vaholl. As well as Larsson and Glorfindel. Infernum was delayed somehow, but the snow was probably the cause of that. They already started to talk about the matter. And all of them considered that a war with the Avalonian Elves could be at hand and even worse a civil war. If this was true, everything had to be done to prevent another war. So Forrest Elves were send to Amortug to distract the dwarves. Also others were send to Avalonia and other important locations to prevent worse... The last couple of months had been Ragnar's most unfortunate time in life. Not only did he sign up for the Avalonia border guard being way to drunk, he also lost his easy position at Avalonia's southern border with Kaliphlin to this post up here in the Devil's Ridge over a card of games in which he was caught cheeting. To his ultimate dismay, it had started snowing in the last couple of days - not a lot yet, but engough for his rather Southern temper to boil over. Every time he looked into Mitgardia from his chilly post up here at Stephano's pass he could feel nothing but hate to the country that he saw spreading below his feet. Therefore, he normally gave travelers coming from Mitgardia a hard time so that he could at least "recompensate" financially for the loss of live time. This morning though, he saw an unuasual travel climbing up the serpentines. Normally people passing the border here were mere smugglers, thieves and peasant, people he could usually intimidate into paying him his due. However, what he saw this morning was different: Not only did the man wear fancy cloth and ride a rather nice horse (people on this road usually walked) he also tossed him four gold coins the moment he galopped by him, not even considering to stop at all ... What Ragnar did not know, was that this man was one of Elon Chorian's most talented diplomats on hid way into to Avalonia. And as much as he would have like to stop and pay the border guard his respect, he did not have time for stuff like this at all. So much was at stake: Unity, peace between humans and dwarves and of course Mitgardia's national security. If he managed to get into Avalonia before those crazy dwarves did, he would perhaps be able to persue some Avalonian nobles not to attack Mitgardia. Perhaps ... At the same time other Mitgardian diplomats made their way into Avalonia. Some walked secret tunnels, some forded swift river and others took ships to the Mystic Islands. Yet all were united to struggle for a common cause: prevent a war between Avalonia and Mitgardia and prevent a civil war within Mitgardia! Are you ready to choose a side?! _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dwarves' Quest A: Ancestors and Heroes. Before going into battle Dwarves pay their respect towards fallen Heroes. Build a vignette(max 16x16) showing dwarves visiting a dwarven statue. B: Deciving Elves Having perfect senses it's hard to get not noticed by Elves. Show how the dwarves get into Avalonian territory unnoticed. This can be by using tunnels, creating distractions etc. Limitations: 32x32 with reasonable overhang. C: Clash of Titans Pumped and ready, the Dwarves are facing the Drow. They'll need more than swords though... In a series of builds(no limit), show the dwarves building siege weapons and putting those to good use against the drow. Men's Quest A: The walls have ears. The dwarves are certain their plans are a secret. But Glorfindel's spies are everywhere. Build a vignette(max 16x16) showing dwarves being spied on. B: Diplomatic Solutions. Either the dwarves have to be stopped or the Elves have to be informed to prevent an all out war. Show how the dwarves can be stopped without bloodshed. For example a dinner with the Elves, treasury for the Dwarves etc. Limitations: 32x32 with reasonable overhang. C: The Diplomat's Tribulations Peace must be held at any cost! In a series of builds(no limit), depict the story of a great ally of man making peace between the realms of men, dwarves, and elves. This may take several diplomatic visits, some quick dirty work like eliminating the opposition to peace, or minor bloodshed. Deadline: 4th of January 11th of January

I had that same problem. Are you using IE? Because for me it only worked well when using html mode. So I'm using Chrome instead now.

Book II - Mitgardia: Guild sign-up and Discussion
Ecclesiastes replied to Ecclesiastes's topic in Guilds of Historica
The Huns, did live in cold and or snowy territories so they actually fit Mitgardia very well! (One of the best figs in years, although the helmet sits very loose on the fig) Amortug was made up for the challenge, so it's not on the map(yet). But it's close to the Avalonian border. -
Any problems understanding, feel free to send a pm! It means you're free to choose an existing story of Bilbo, from the Hobbit or lotr. Or just make one up! If it's just on shields and minifigs, I consider them as a printed decal. So yes.
