  1. The winged hussars were a real-life heavy cavalry corps, their distinctive feature were the wings attached to the saddle or armor in which feathers were inserted. The castle depicted dates back to around 1500, we have a door with a drawbridge and bastions on which there are artillery pieces. Inside the bastions we find an armory, cannonballs, the barrel with gunpowder, this section can be detached trom the rest of the fortress so you can play with minifigures (the whole work is well playable with minifigures). The fortress is accessed via a wooden staircase, above the entrance door (working) we find two intertwined keys as also represented in the shield above the drawbridge. In the towers of the fortress we find a bedroom and a chest, on the lower floor respectively a cell and the treasure also accessible from the outside by removing the rock panels. Wide and confortable stairs (finally), give access to all floors of the castle, on the ground floor we find the cellar, a kitchen equipped with warious furniture and cupboards, a table and a corner firreplace (I love it); there is a secret passage that leads to the outside of the castle, I inserted some shrubs to hide it better. On the first floor we find the large banquet hall illuminated by large windows (I love the idea to medieval banquets, and I would also like to point out the refined workmanship of the windows). Above the fortress we find large crenellated bastions, small turrets and a high watchtower complete the work. I do not want to leave out the bandits who try to besiege the castle, a black knight helped by a man-at-arms and a musketeer use a large cannon (I point out its workmanship), but the highlight is arriving, the cavalry of winged hussars led by the captain in golden armor. The castle is not unguarded, however, two halberdiers and two female musketeers guard it. I hope you enjoy this project, I am particulary enthusiast about how I made the turrets and their supports, but there are many other finishes that I am proud of. A big thank you to everyone who will vote for it. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/2ce0cea3-1555-45f1-b11a-6644fe24d787
  2. thank you thank you !
  3. Thank you very much !
  4. Roman Acropolis - Palatine hill Rome has seven hills, one of which is the Palatine where the Emperor's palace was located. In my work we see this palace and a temple dedicated to Jupiter, I created it because I like building wiht Lego and I am passionate about History. In my opinion it will be a fantastic set and all Lego and History enthusiasts will want to have it! We have a fortified palace, an armored door defends it, a guard watches while the other eats secretly roasting a fish on the brazier; we also find a ballista (don't you think it's fabulous?) among the defenses. Under the Imperial Acropolis we find two intersecting streets, a fountain cheers up passers-by, we can find various characters, a Roman matron who is carried on a litter, a citizen who asks for alms, a senator who goes to the palace with a message, a gladiator and the Empero with a praetorian guard on horseback. I would like to point out the maritime pine, the blackberry or oleanders plants, the cypresses, the vine and the grass, the flora and fauna... are not lacking. And again the entrance doors to the buildings, the details of the buildings themselves, the Emperos's palace also has a pool in the small peristyle, inside a marble table with the bust of the Emperor, a chair, the bed, the braziers and a souvenir from Egypt. I hope you like it and support it, thanks to all those who will vote for it. AAA: if anyone has any suggestions to improve my builds I would be grateful as they don't get enough votes, thank you very much. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/1ee27b9f-51bc-4c8c-9d8a-ea0026196c9c
  5. What you see is a Scottish castle from the highlands of 1500. I built it because I've been passionate about fortresses and castles since I was little and since I played with LEGO. It could become a great LEGO set because it has never been built, it is not excessively large but at the same time it is very realistic and detailed, even the interiors are decorated in an innovative way, like man other details such as the windows, or the trees, the minifigures themselves are assembled in a cool way. And then everyone would like to have a Scottish castle in the highlands, and since real costs too much why not get it in miniature and display it in the living room ? Thanks to all those who want to support my project. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/ebb0b73d-b4ca-4add-9915-7dc76f8555a5
  6. What you see is one of the first medieval castles, I bricked it because the history of fortifications is one of my passions, in my opion it could be a great LEGO AFOL historical set because it is a novelty and because everyone who already has a Lego Viking Village or a Lego Viking Ship can expand the theme. We have a reinforced palisade with an embankment and a moat around it, the fortification is divided between a low cortyard wher we find the great hall (the roof can be removed for easy access inside), with fireplace and confort, the stable for the horse and the forge. Then you go up towards the artificial hill and you arrive at the keep (high courtyard), the last stronghold in case of siege, where we have a warehouse, the sovereign's bedroom and the lookout (the tower can be dismantled to access all floors easily). The keep and the entrance tower are made of stone to better resist fire. As characters we find: archers, royal guards (yellow and green shields), huscarls (white and blue shields), and the warrior princess (red and blue shield). (all buildings can be removed). I hope you like it, Thanks to everyone who will support it. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/593385b3-d701-48b1-be53-7df85de0ea79

  10. The triumphal arch of Constantine. The triumphal arch you see above was built in 315 AD in honor of the Emperor Constantine to celebrate his victory against Maxentius in 312 AD. The original construction is made of concrete and brick covered in marble. From archaeological studies it is assumed that the work dates back to the time of the Emperor Hadrian. It was subsequently enlarged and re-adapted, the Senate and the roman people dedicated it to the Emperor Constantine. My brick version tries to be as faithful as possible to the original using what Studio 2.0 makes available to me; in particular I had to replace the panels with military scenes with floral pieces, maintaining the round shape where possible, furthermore the Roman writings were replaced with Celtic runes (the only ones available). The diorama is completed with a standard bearer carrying a "draco", a legionary and obviusly the Emperor Constantine on horseback arriving in Triumph. Don't expect the classic Roman imperial armament, in 300 AD the shields were oval-round and the segmented lorica had been replaced with "amata" or "squamata" loricas, the helmets were different as was the color of the uniforms. Thanks to everyone who will support the project, I hope sooner or later to see one of my works become a Lego set. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/f040816e-2b76-4371-9943-b31627136602
