  1. Good job keeping the entire build in your shots from various angles. I usually give up after I get 1 or 2 whole build shots and then do closer in shots for details. It's cool to be able to see the whole thing from the different perspectives Yay ETTC Sepoys!
  2. Thanks! The floor tiles are custom from a store called BrikBlok
  3. I was talking with the owner last week and he is planning to create some greencoat admirals to go with the green soldiers and then some yellow / orange variants too
  4. Oh yeah those figs from KTown Bricks have the coattails printed right on the legs! They aren't cheap, but I think they have some greencoat variants too! I am little more excited for these classic greencoat and whitecoat imperial guard torsos you can get here: https://brickguild.ca/ Mine are in the mail! Thanks! Thanks. I'd been meaning to circle back on the dinosaur bones so this seemed like a good opportunity!
  5. Yeah those look like some great parts! After diligently checking the US B&P I was able to order a flock of sheep and some of the white masonry bricks, though both were sold out again the next time I checked.
  6. Rolls right off the tongue, right? Thanks! After I used the hinge base on the outside of the ETTC Warehouse I wanted to try it on an interior too. I really like how it kind of looks like an ornate cornice Thanks! Yeah the curved windows came in the mail from BnP earlier in the day and I wanted to try them out. I need to get more of the 2x2 gold lattice frames to fill them out! I usually use stickered backs on my normal redcoats (see below), but they are less noticable without the coattails I think! When @Ayrlego wrote "custom redcoats" in the challenge description that caught my eye and I thought it might be fun to feature some of the KTown Bricks, Nevabrick, and Saber Scorpion custom redcoats. Examples of normal stickered redcoat backs:
  7. The Royal Society of Natural Philosophy opens a Museum of Antiquities in Wullham, small educational, evancelt
  8. [COR - Faction Flavours] Museum of Antiquities, Wullham | Corrington Entry
  9. Reginald Brewerfrump had always been interested in old things. As a child in Belson, he had sought out all of the oldest places in Corrington and when he visited them he had taken notes in a pocket-sized notebook. Now as an adult, he was about to get to catalog new discoveries made in the Brick Seas! Brewerfrump was the new curator of the Royal Society of Natural Philosophy Museum of Antiquities in Wullham. Among the first exhibits on display was a collection of large mysterious bones found by the 26th Foot while stationed in Elizabethville. ----------------- OOC: Submitted as a Corlander entry in the Faction Flavours Mini Challenge. I wanted to make this build to continue the story of the mysterious bones! I found a way to fit in 6 colors of telescopes, but didn't find a natural way to fit in my black or yellow ones. Also thought it would be fun to feature all custom redcoats and only show their backs Licensed as a small educational building in Wullham
  10. Cool chimney! Glad we got to see it Thanks for finishing it! We has intended an ETTC collab with a few other builders but it didn't happen
  11. Too many! @PxChris asked for some so I'm going to mail him some this week. Thanks! Yeah there is definitely something to be done from the stacked backpacks I'm working on another build with the house sans-roof now, so expect to see it again!
  12. Thanks! It was a lot of fun to experiment with, and I think it turned out well EDIT: Thanks for the frontpage @Professor Thaum!
  13. Thanks @Jack Sassy & @deraven!
  14. Interesting colors and angles!
  15. Nice work on the wrought iron fence & gate! Interesting variety of designs within
  16. Party boat! Funny idea to have a "sail-in" restaurant
  17. The Pony Express operated in the American West from 1860 to 1861. Prior to the completion of the transcontinental railroad, riders on horseback would deliver mail across frontier country. The mail service allowed a letter to travel from the Atlantic to the Pacific in 10 days. To make the best time and expedite mail delivery, riders would relay bags to one another while at a full gallop. --------- This is my first foray into Western MOCs. I loved the TV show "The Young Riders" as a kid - it was about the adventures of Pony Express riders.
  18. Nice work! That's a lot of containers. Good cannon design. While I think you hit all of the big tenets of Ayrlego's Port Woodhouse design (1x1 round stack roof, white walls w/ colored mottling, etc), you've added a personal touch by increasing the number of colors in the walls. You have tan, dark tan, dark orange, medium nougat, reddish brown, correct? I'm not sure the all extra colors all work - it seems harder to the focus on! Nice job with the cobbles While I choose to use yellow minifig heads, by choosing 'fleshies' you are able to have multiple skin colors and that really livens up the scene. Interesting to see that "officer" torso used as a common soldier torso - it works!
  19. New pics with better lighting look great!
  20. Very nice, @Spud The Viking! Cool column technique. Imposing and regal building befitting such an esteemed operation. In your teaser on Instagram we could see the neat paneling on the doors. Might you have another closeup shot of them that features the door details better?
  21. Based on your avatar @Alix, I hope you choose Corrington if you are interested
  22. This is just my personal take: I think they are allowed and encouraged, though they do have a stigma. With real brick builds, you are limited by your collection and the pieces/figs available to you. I find that can help me find creative solutions out of necessity. With a digital build, you can build as big as you want with whatever pieces you want (or as big as your CPU/RAM will allow) and that can feel like an unfair advantage to real-brick builders. That said, (1) it isn't really a competition most of the time, so who cares about an advantage and (2) a lot of folks don't have access to a real brick collection because of cost or living arrangements, so it is way better to build with a digital program than not at all.
