    Thanks! I'm only using already mangled pieces as sources of studs for smaller bricks and plates My kids are super rough with them and use them as Minecraft pickaxes and hammers and some of the older or weaker colored pieces shatter, others are (partially) salvageable. I'll post picks of the reclamation process if I end up using them in a build.

    Each Duplo 1x2 is still going to be 2x4 regular system studs in size. So they'll be big Im sure I'll also incorporate some of this
  3. evancelt
    Agreed! Do you have any additional shots of it on its own @Bregir?
  4. evancelt
    Since Duplo don't normally come in pieces smaller than 2x4 plates, I'm trying out a destructive process to yield smaller parts

    What are the court's thoughts on a fully DUPLO base for a MOC? Would that be permissible? I'm envisioning something where the minifigs used are system-sized If not allowed because it distracts from LEGO-sized builds, that's fine

    Lovely @Khorne! I love the red color scheme and architecture, as well as the base. The upside down lanterns are fun! Also really like the posts made out of round plates and bricks. They are simple yet very effective as ornate posts. Nice photos, the gray background works really well

    I really like the sloped walls, cobblestone road surface, and building textures. Nice work! I agree with Khorne that some blue under the bridge would have made it clearer that it was a bridge over water as opposed to a ditch, etc

    Looks good! I like the beach, and the gate house and arm You guys did a good job keeping the style consistent across the collab builds

    Great job - I really like the quarter round tiles in the walls for decoration, and the nested arches. Great minifigure activity and I love the carriage design. The road / path design is a little studdy, though the cool walls make up for it for me.

    Wonderfully done. Glad to see a continuation of ETTC efforts on Terraversa! I see the nougat 1x2s made a showing I especially like the rough SNOT stone patios and the windows. What technique did you use for the windows?

    Thanks. Would love to see it in your next building. Haha thanks. Yes, the end build does look viking-y. I guess the barn builder had a thing for antique styles Yeah, the musket roof could be fun! I think I have enough muskets, but only like 30 of the reddish-brown 1x1 tiles w/ clips on top, and like 10 of the reddish-brown 1x2 plates with clip on top. Would either have to find another method to secure them, buy more parts, or disguise the clip parts in the roof. I have another thatch roof style in mind for when I reuse the walls/boat part of this build in a new build. Thanks! Yeah I love seeing those posts where people make walls out of carrots, fences out of breadsticks, furniture out of pistols, etc. Fun to try it with my excess pieces. I have a few more in mind from my sorting overflows.

    Looks great! I love the wave and the whole thing looks so bright and clear. Seeing the underside of the sideways tan on the beach is fun texture

    I agree with @Kai NRG! I also really love the shutter design - will likely use that in the future. Great job!
  14. evancelt
    Thanks guys. Yeah I may redo the roof in another style and submit it as another build with a base / vegetation / different story. As I haven't licensed this one I hope that will be OK I like the boat prow and pentagonal rockwork a lot and think the roof detracts some. For this build above I just stuck the backpack neck holes on plate studs, but I think the backpacks could probably be made more secure by using technic pins into technic bricks or technic plates Perhaps in a future build a roof could be made with muskets These weird ideas for roof elements came about because I recently did some sorting of spare minifig things and realized I have a lot of some of these pieces - enough they could be used in weird ways Some pictures from sorting the spares:

    Still in Terraversa following the hostilities with Oleon, Captain Brickleton and Major Brickford ( @LM71Blackbird ) go for a walk to discuss their plans to expand ETTC presence to every settlement in the Brick Seas. They stop near a barn and decide how they can bring the trade company to the settlements they govern. OOC:

    Awesome
  17. evancelt
    This is similar to your build
  18. evancelt
    Awesome job @NOD! This is a massive building The relief in the beach/boardwalk/grass landscape is much more spot on this time. I like the cone/inverted cone deck railing you created.
  19. evancelt
    Thanks for heads up on this - I didn't realize there was a new mold out there! Hopefully the ones I ordered from two different sellers have at least 6 of the old ones between them

    The 'Settlement Status' tab is showing for me, though it takes ~20 seconds to show up (the page has to finish loading completely)

    As others have said, this is super impressive! Great work. I loved the sprue-as-hinges so much I rushed over to bricklink to get some sprues in black!
  22. evancelt
    Thanks @Ayrlego!
  23. evancelt
    I love the fungi on the tree
  24. evancelt
    Both @Justsomebrix and @Thomas Waagenaar 's builds are inspiring me to try a boat build. Nice work guys

    Perhaps there are different recipes for different ingredients and different tastes
