In the mysterious mountains of Mitgardia live the keepers of the giant bees. These bees produce a honey which is much revered by they people of Nocturnus for its aphrodisiac qualities. Without this honey, the future of Nocturnus is in danger because only the powerful aphrodisiac qualities of this honey is more powerful than the revulsion of their appearance. Only the eunuchs are trusted to undertake the task... for obvious reasons. Keepers of the Giant bees by tikitikitembo, on Flickr Giant bee on hive by tikitikitembo, on Flickr

Finally got the turbo tank (I really wanted the minifigs from that set), with the city of Atlantis delivered for $167. My husband came down stairs and immediatly could tell from my face I had been on amazon France... I had that, oops, I couldn't resist face

This is just beautiful. I love the water nymph, love the white in the trees, love the water, love it all.

I agree about the boxes are versatile and sturdy Cutty, we have started contacting the Lego games boxes with white contact and using them to store our daughter's craft supplies. We also use them for storing Lego 32x32 baseplates now. They are the perfect size.

Can't wait to see some more photos of this, there are so many details in this, especially inside that I would love to see more of. Awesome work, it really is beautiful.

Very cool tattoo. Does it hurt more getting it so close to the bone? I have my sons name done in the theme of the Lego logo and am planning a larger upper leg lego tattoo (based around the 80s pigtail minifig).

Really well made. Papa smurf looks like he is heading to the beach in his speedos and thongs (flip flops). Very cool

Yay me... Congratulations to everyone else, it was lots of fun and some of the entries were just amazing... really spectacular.

Thanks for the kind comments. :) It is called nesquik because of the bunny. Nesquik is a powder used to flavour drinks and they ran a promotion to get the Lego bunny (which is their mascot). I am not very good at naming things so I named it after him

I am heading over to trade in a couple of days... I will see what I can do.

Finally bought one of the 10211 (Grand Emporiums) - Final Australian Price: $129.37 + $11.20 delivery - Amazon France of course.

You guys... stop leading him astray... Avalonia is for the weak Aquapuke, your skills would be well placed in Nocturnus.

That big tree is brilliant, it is the first thing that actually caught my eye, really well done. Then I see everything else and it is beautiful, all the details down to the bundle of sticks, the way the doors have 'hinges' the paneled horses fence and of course the Cerberus head on the wall. Awesome work.

Awesome build. That roof area is just delicious but the whole thing is very detailed and beautifully done.

Really lovely tower. Love the colours and the little steps to get into the tower itself. I also love the scene with the rocks and water.

Black sails will look even better. (I don't know why I thought they were brown) What do you use to make the sails?

I know how that feels (I think it is because you do have an image in your head to start with). But when I look at it, I see awesomeness. Great idea, love the minifigs on the battleship, the back of the ship is beautiful and overall is awesome. I can't wait to see it with brown sails.

That was clever to build it around those curved pieces. And it is a tighter circle (which makes it better to use in smaller MOCs). I have only ever tried curved walls once, (more years ago than I care to admit: an old MOC), and it was a bit crap. But this technique looks like something I might 'borrow' in the future.

Nice looking tower Taz. I don't know if it has been done before, but I like the effect but I imagine it was really fragile while you were building it.

I bought the Lego art carousel (which I had not seen before) Lego - Art Carousel by tikitikitembo, on Flickr Lego - Art Carousel by tikitikitembo, on Flickr It is very cool (and will be coming to work with me

That is awesome. It is a gorgeous church to start with, but the evolution has been done brilliantly. Love the scaffolding idea for the restoration in the second photo, and the third 'future' photo is just brilliant. You can see that some time went into these three MOCs, all the details are just perfect.

I really like the effect of the 'teeth' pieces on the windows and doors of the bottom level, I might steal that idea

I really like the wheeled mantlets. Very cool.

Thanks everyone. The bunny is my favourite minifig. true.
