Your MOCs just keep getting better. Love the plate built walls and the ground has a great texture Excellent woodwork as always and I like that you made the doors functional The chimney and cut-out on the back left (what is that?) are the only things that bother me. The chimney starting four wide then switching to three is fine, but I think a slope would make the transition much smoother; it also seems a little short as it ends right below the roof Great work on the window frames and roof though

Nice dock and boat Does the crank on the back actually work the portcullis? I think actually having a structure for the portcullis to go up into would improve the MOC

I didn't think you had the pieces for everyone... it sounds like Rogue bought the exact pieces for the vast majority of Historicans

Wow! I only have deliberately assembled about 5-6 Mitgardians, and have the pieces for a fair amount more. You need to do a MOC showing everyone together

I hope you can Sure

@Legonardo: Yup, as I've said before: you use your pieces very efficiently I have a lot of dark bley slopes, mostly because of this:

Getting to be a big castle The angled section in the front corner looks great

Cool, I'm very excited about it

Have fun! And I'm sure Steen and Glorfindel will do their best to keep things running smoothly

Glad to hear you'll be entering, I was hoping for a Nocturnus entry You are, but you'll probably have a better chance trying to make one really good MOC Hope you'll be able to enter, and if those categories are good enough for the official challenges they're good enough for a minichallenge I would love to see an entry from you! Good to hear

Master Architect Challenge There are many wonders of architecture throughout Historica: massive dwarven halls, lofty elven towers, elegant cathedrals, and impregnable fortresses. But Revolword and the Elementals have laid waste to many of these structures. Now that Revolword has been defeated, craftsmen across Historica have started taking up their tools to rebuild the former glory of Historica. Show your character assisting in either the building of a new architectural wonder, or assisting in the repairs of a building damaged by the Hand or Elementals. The main focus of your MOC should be on the architecture of the building and construction work on the building. Maximum size 48x48 (2304 studs in any configuration), minimum size 8x8 (in any configuration). Deadline: August 1 (as long as it is still August 1st somewhere in the world, entries will be accepted) Prizes: There will be a winner selected from each guild and they will earn a guild specific parts pack and GoH title: "Master Architect of Historica" Prize packs: Builds will be scored in 3 categories 1. Guild style - How well does the build work with the overall styles and theme of the Guild? Are you incorporating your Guild colors? Does this look like it would fit well within some region of your guild? If your build is actually set in the lands of another guild, explain where it is and why you're building it. 2. Technique - Is your build very original? How does your build stand apart? Have you utilized some new techniques that you haven't seen before? Did you have a very intriguing storyline or did you show entertaining interactions between the characters in your MOC? Creativity and originality will help boost your score here. 3. Presentation - Does your presentation pop? Are your pictures crisp and clear? Did you provide different views of you build? Did you provide a good description of the build to accompany your pictures? Photo quality is a key aspect. Post a pic of your entry here, and a link to the topic. If you have any questions please ask

Here's a link to my Mount Doom MOC: Mount Doom

Hope all goes well with your move. The vaulted ceiling was probably the trickiest part of this build, they are definitely hard to build well

Thanks Torgar! And you definitely should, your last one was stunning and I'm sure another one would be just as impressive

Z said it was how many challenges you entered, pretty cool how many gold shields there are

Yay for new shield Thanks for pushing for those Z Finished taking apart/sorting my Hradcanny Hall build, so now I can start on something new

@legonardo: The shield's border is different from some others, but you're not the only one that has a gold border

@Legonardo: If you get permission from EB staff you can start some of your own mini-challenges. I'll hopefully be doing one soon

Yeah, I do have tons of 1x1 trans red and green tiles, the pillars hide the gaps from offsetting the walls, you can see the gaps in the picture i showed of the back though. Comparing the final layer of bricks to the 2x3 inverted slopes in the walls is the easiest way to spot the offset

Thanks, 18 to be precise Thanks Kristel, I wanted to try a different door design than I've done before and thought these fit the build well Thanks Z! The pillars made things interesting as the space between them was an odd number of studs, so I offset the wall sections between the pillars by half a stud to get an even number to work with, then I offset the sections back to normal and hooked everything up at the top. If you look closely you can see the difference. Good suggestion for the floor, another color would definitely draw attention

Thanks Balthasar!
