Avalonia Guild: Homepage, Sign-up and Discussion
Captain BeerBeard replied to Derfel Cadarn's topic in Guilds of Historica
Sounds good. I'm working on a ruin/ork camp still undecided and a farm and a smaller scene that hasn't materialized yet. -
This is awesome! I love all the color and details. Keep'em coming.

Anyone working on freebuilds? I have a few brewing. -
You guys shouldn't be worried about piece count if you want to join. I had almost no pieces when I started. My first moc was a terribly plain and very ugly 64x64 forest scene. I learned how to stretch my collection out when bulding to get detail with as little as possible. Now my collection is so big I can have multiple large mocs built with extreme details but I still conserve my parts and better than when I started. It's true that you need to spend a ton of money to be noticed as a builder in the castle world but GoH is a great place to get some experience and feedback until your collection grows to epic proportions. GoH is just a facade for building castle mocs in four or five different geographical styles. You shouldn't be intimidated to join. A lot of us use LotR figure parts too. It's ok to take those LotR sets apart and build something else.

@Zach Mills Are you ever going to actually make a moc? I really don't get that your Avalonian. You have made more comments than anyone but no actual builds. -
@rogue More people should have a say in it. As of now it seems like everyone who has put countless hours and thousands of dollars in to this has no say. We were promised that GoH would be ours, the people that made GoH. Giving the people who shaped this project freedom might be a good start. This GoH thing only works because of all the contributers not because of regs and mods and fellows. Without the people there is no GoH or Eurobricks.

All of my armor from everthing from PoP and PotC on is flawless besides one or two printing issues. I have over a hundred and none have this. I've gotten some LotR recently and they are flawless. I would be calling customer service if I was you.

This is one of those scenes that reminds me why I started playing with LEGO again. Looking at this made me happy.

Nice! I love the tree. Great rock work as usual. My only complaint is the big hair I spotted. Always double check before photography.

Active/intent to be active GoH members.
Captain BeerBeard replied to Mike S's topic in Guilds of Historica
Why can't we start another guild or two? Variety is the spice of life. -
Active/intent to be active GoH members.
Captain BeerBeard replied to Mike S's topic in Guilds of Historica
I'm serious about joining a different guild. I spent so much of my life in Avalonia. It feels like a huge waste. GoH is worse than drugs and alcohol. Or is LEGO worse? -
Active/intent to be active GoH members.
Captain BeerBeard replied to Mike S's topic in Guilds of Historica
I need to change guilds if I'm going to continue GoH. Any guilds interested in an elite assassin guild? -
I was talking about the dark grey ones. They're also called log bricks.

I have been thinking about making a moc with a lot of similarities to your moc. I'm offering you my completely honest opinion here. This is not a bad moc by any means but there is a lot of room for improvement. Like I said I have been thinking about a similar scene. I put a lot of thought into my mocs, usually. The different bricks around the arches are too much of a change from the actual arches. That's what I have been stressing over for my moc. I think if you used more standard 1x2 around the top of the arches you would get a much smoother transition in texture and show the age of the ruin better when placing the detailed bricks. Those arches are not the easiest piece to work into a ruin. The ground texture is a bit off with the 1x1 rounds. The pallisade bricks don't match well with "brick" bricks right next to each other. I'm glad you posted this because it really helped my thought process. Your going in the right direction with your building. I have a feeling your going to be an awesome builder if you stick with it.

Jade Haar Sneydehr, the best barber of Historica!
Captain BeerBeard replied to Maxim I's topic in Guilds of Historica
I personally think you have improved a lot since this project started. Everyone's builds are getting harder to criticize and pointing out flaws is definitely hard to do nowadays. I did notice an eye lash/hair in your moc. Always double check your moc before photography! That's my only complaint. Keep'em coming.- 19 replies

Great pictures! I wonder if the torsos could be usable with different arm colors? Maybe fleshie heads would work better? Maybe it's the yellow heads that are making these figures look bad?
