  1. That was my first guess. But the dragon is the 7th item of the "description" leak, and the 7th item of the minifig list is the Chocolatier...
  2. Yes! The Chocolatier includes a reddish brown small dragon...
  3. A photo of the Unicorn Elf leaked, and her hair-and-tiara combo is gorgeous! I guess she'll have a unicorn too... Cute Witch may be of interest for medieval-fantasy too.
  4. Ooooh, interesting! Thank you very much for the info. I guess it will be part of the "'Gardens of the World" series then (according to Brickset's categorisation of its set number). I certainly hope for some kind of medicinal garden with distinct plant beds enclosed with lattice work...
  5. Aren't we supposed to get a wolf Patronus in the Hospital Wing set? I vaguely remember news about that, but no picture. I may have lived so long under a rock recently that I missed something though....
  6. Exciting news! I may be in a black hole currently to to work overload, but I'm interested anyways. Count me in!
  7. HA! Yes, I just saw it... So that's why those wings fit so perfectly on the foal mould...
  8. @Kai NRG That's precisely what I'm trying to learn right now! Until Brickscalibur this year, I tended to build for real-life display (not for conventions or anything, just at home) and then take photos of the results. And I started to realize that the photos did not necessarily do justice to the MOC (or sometimes did not even represent the MOC correctly). Alrune's Study is the first creation where I tried to think as much about the composition and lighting of the photo that will be submitted for Brickscalibur as about how the build will look on a shelf. Less easy than I thought! Way less easy than I thought... @SimWies Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun (and some frustrated moments too) experimenting with lighting, I'm so glad you enjoy the result!
  9. Interesting idea! 1) In no particular order : the smowl (ID 3753, all three prints), the falcon, and the wolf 2) Again in no particular order : fox, donkey, and doe
  10. @GeoBrick Thank you so much! Yes, it's a kind-of-triangular-table in the middle. And the cats...well...they may be brave, but they're not very good mousers - aren't they? @mrcp6d Thank you very much! Laboratories are so fun to build... @Kai NRG Thank you very much! The cut corner was an afterthought, as with a full-fledged corner the build looked either too empty in person (if no more furniture was added) or too cluttered on the photo (if more furniture was added). I have tried to disguise the cut corner as some kind of stairs, and in person it does not bother me - probably due to a higher angle of view. In the photo...well, I can only agree that the gaps in the wedge plates don't look so good.
  11. Me...An order from october 3 is still "in warehouse"...
  12. It has been very challenging for me in 2024 to find the time to advance the Chronicles of Embervale, and I've lost track of my own storyline. Perhaps the initial plan for a vast and intricate narrative was a bit overambitious. However, my passion for this project remains strong, and I want to continue it in a new format. Instead of one long story, expect shorter, sometimes even standalone tales. Please, dear readers, accept my apologies for setting aside the story arc started in 2023 (time really does fly!). I hope you'll enjoy this reboot! -- There were few things Alrune, Mage-Governor of Embervale, loved more than the quiet solitude of her study at dawn. The rest of the castle was, at this hour, caught up in the intricate choreography of the staff’s breakfast preparations - a swirling ballet of clattering pans and arguments about eggs. In less than an hour, her uncle would interrupt her blissful silence, armed with the kind of unwavering politeness that would somehow make refusing breakfast feel like declaring war on her own kitchen staff. And shortly after, the village bell would ring, summoning her to listen to the endless stream of complaints, questions, and deeply inventive interpretations of Imperial Laws presented by the good people of Embervale. But for now, it was just her, her cats, and the soothing dripping of a gelatinous cube becoming ectoplasmic distillate. -- Note: this is also my entry for the "Capturing Character" category of Brickscalibur.
  13. @GeoBrick, @N-4K0, @Kai NRG, @NOD, @Umbra-Manis, @zoth33 & @mrcp6d Thank you all for your support! I wish you all the best for the new year.
  14. Day 24 : the Solstice Fir Dresghar - "Merry Solstice to all! May the light of dawn find us ready for whatever stories tomorrow may bring..." -- I have deeply enjoyed sharing this Advent Calendar with everyone here. Thank you to all readers, I wish you all a magical time with your beloved ones! PS: the Solstice Fir is based on a design by n.o.l.d.o.r on Instagram.
  15. Last but not least! Now I’m looking foward to see how they all look together...
  16. @GeoBrick & @Kai NRG Thank you! I’m glad you like the wall, something ornate was needed...For the gifts, I had a lot of fun imagining who offered what to whom. @Eyrezer got it right on Flickr for the mug!
  17. One more excellent armor...and an excellent text!
  18. Day 23 : Presents Alrune - "You make the Solstice sound so symbolic and serious..." Dresghar - "Because it is. And it is also a good excuse for gifts, wine, and merriment!"
  19. @StereoLooks like this one : https://rebrickable.com/parts/3626cpr2272/minifig-head-eyebrows-eyelashes-lopsided-smile-scared-open-mouth-with-teeth-print/14/
  20. Day 22 : Back to Embervale Alrune - "That's all? The story felt unfinished. The crystal, the storm, the girl—there are too many unanswered questions." Dresghar - "Tonight is the Winter Solstice. The longest night, and the promise that light will return. That’s what we celebrate, Darling: not an end, but the hope of what’s to come."
  21. Excellent continuation with instantly recognisable armors!
  22. @T-86(swe) Thank you so much! It is so heartwatming and confidence-boosting to read such kind words, and to know that the calendar can spark joy!
  23. @Kai NRG Thank you so much! It was a challenge to have something interesting for each day, I’m so glad you think it worked! @GeoBrick Thank you so much! This calendar required a lot of planning to write the story and identify every build, but it was definitely worth it... @zoth33 Thank you very much! It has been a lot of fun to gather all these little fairy folk!
  24. Day 21 : the Crystal Dresghar - "At last, she found the crystal, glowing softly in the moonlight. As her fingers brushed its surface, warmth spread through her, and the crystal pulsed in response to the purity of her heart. In that moment, the darkness melted away, and she knew she had found the hope she sought." ... And our tale has come to an end!
