I consider it finished!

The diorama is still not finished, but I got some parts done recently like the inner ward and the black falcons attack/visit.

edit: trying to show you new pics, does inserting BBC code from flickr not work anymore?

unfortunately not

I just want so share my intense joy with someone who can understand it. This mixed lot of Lego I got yesterday from a publicly visible online offer. Still can't believe I payed only 50€ for all of this! (this price was even stated as negotiable). Sometimes you simply have to act fast to collect such a treasure, I guess. Who can spot some unique parts which belong to specific sets? Besides the sails, flag, printed lurp, arches and panels and of course the raised baseplate - I already figured out those. 20240321_213928 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20240322_112219 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20240321_224418 by pendentif, auf Flickr

I love it! Well done.

I recently moved my lego to another room and built a free hanging shelf to display the castle-, a wild-west-, and a pirates diorama. 146x87 studs each. So the castle diorama gets an extension of 28x87 studs. There I want to add a little siege scene with probably a trebuchet, as well as a small wizards an herb witches hut in the woods. I consider this to be a long-term-project now with the three different levels. Both wild West and pirates are just roughly sketched out for now, they may appear in separate threads here in the future. 20231218_143250 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231218_144039 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231218_144103 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231218_144051 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231223_170712 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231223_170737 by pendentif, auf Flickr And the new city layout will distract me as well, with its major changes after moving it to this room... 20231224_113839 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231224_113847 by pendentif, auf Flickr

Cool! How did you solve the problem with missing reddish brown curved slopes for the top of the treasure chest? Because I also would have liked to add one.

thanks, but still WIP

What to you think about these custom palm leafes? I mean it's not official Lego, but I may like it. 20231027_123339-1 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231027_124022-1 by pendentif, auf Flickr

Oh yes I think this is something I can work with: 20231019_120724 by pendentif, auf Flickr 20231020_170658 by pendentif, auf Flickr

Do you mean the lathe? Yes of course you can use it.
