  1. I love this - such an original idea for the Brick Seas, and everything about the build, from the swampland to the boardwalks and feed toughs are really well done! For some reason I'm really loving the bit of raised ground where the boardwalk above the swamp ends - the dark green and those bushes and palm trees just look soo realistic. Got to mention that spear/knife barrier too - great PU and it really works perfectly! Way to take the island description and make something awesome out of it!
  2. That bed really turned out well, and the matching back-rest and tablecloth really tie the mourning colors together across the build! Lovely pillar design and rug as well, and if there's one nitpick I'd make, it'd have to be the stone-work in the floor, actually - it worked great in real life, but I do find that it tends to look a bit off in close-up photography generally, unless taken from a really low angle; and especially when it's an interior Really nice job overall though (and like I said, it all looked perfectly good irl! ), definitely my favorite of your recent vigs for the series!
  3. Yep, we'd be glad to have you! Always great to have new members, and we've been a pretty quiet guild for a good while, so I can't wait to see what you come up with!
  4. Wanted to take some time enjoying this build before commenting, and I've got to agree with the others that the layout is pretty fantastic! Makes me think of a less whimsical/more realistic BoBS version of Ecc's recent build. The tudor sections are perfectly placed, and the classically Eslandolan roofs, plants, and balustraded/crenellated walkways work together beautifully! I'm really liking the cart and lantern designs too, as well as the floor texture on the vig - very nicely done all around! Thanks again for wanting to help get some building done for the ETWC - I hope to have some builds to show for it myself soon, and can't wait to see what else comes from your side!
  5. The graduation in the water is really very well done here, and as I mentioned on Ross', the docking space with the sand spilling over into the water gives the whole build a great dash of color Great job with the barge and combos on the fishmonger too!
  6. Very nice entry, Ross - all the minifig activity going on really brings the scene alive, but I've got to admit the animals make it for me! Well, and that guy playing the flute Excellent colors throughout too, and the sand by the docking spot adds a lot to the scene
  7. That is some fantastic rigging and hull work, mate, great to see another ship from you! The golden bits and details (especially in the bow) are excellent too! Awesome stuff
  8. Seconded! Well deserved indeed, and cheers to all those involved in the Oleon invasion of Kings Port/Terraversa! It totally made my day when the first KPA announcement came out, and y'all have really spiced the forum up and (while not meaning to do detriment to anyone else, I have to say) incontestably made yourselves the most interesting and exciting faction around for the last few months. Captain Nordau has you all down on his list of honor of the few who have been bold and/or mad enough to pull of a successful raid in the Brick Seas (though he'll have to do some work on building up his fleet before he can legitimately compare his achievements to yours )! Congratulations on bringing your endeavor to a successful termination!
  9. Very nice work with the chiseled rock, Ayrlego, and with getting it to fit so naturally into the landscape! The filter/shoot is quite clever, and (while all your minifigures are good) I'm very much a fan of that guy in front!
  10. The idea of a Ninjago city style guilds build is brilliant and you've done an amazing job with it, Ecc! Everything about this is really nice (especially all those interiors!), and I love the upside-down lanterns and the use of those two-sided cheese slopes on the battlements and roof! Very nice color choices as well, and great work all around!
  11. Love those stairs and the overhanging rock and icicles, SK! The windblown tree and presentation are on point too!
  12. That is one impressive regiment - the file of muskets and bayonets is gorgeous, and I always love seeing the dark green and red color combinations on your troops!
  13. So much to like about this! As I mentioned on Flickr, the fountain and the slightly angled buildings are fantastic, and for some reason I'm simply loving those little cannon batteries! The rocky cliffs and palm trees were great choices for some elevation in the build, and the water is beautiful as well. Awesome job all around!
  14. Agent Gilles Guelds awoke and listened attentively to the conversation for a moment before speaking (an unusual proceeding on his part). But as soon as he had processed Governor Guilder's proposition the fire came into his eyes and he leapt up to his feet. "War, war, war!!!" he exclaimed. Willoughby pulled him down into his seat and whispered for a minute. "Ah, okay - no war but we can attack Oleon whenever we want?" he shrugged. "Sounds like a fair compromise to me," he grinned. "Count on my vote, Governor!"
  15. Very nice - lovely interior and great job with the windows and siding to give this an awesome 1700s colonial feel! Excellent presentation as well
  16. Really nice! Those arcades and games are fantastic, and the roof is pretty sweet as well! Supported!
  17. Excellent ship, mate! The yellow lines are gorgeous, and the shaping and rear cabin are very nicely done as well. Great work with those brickbuilt sails too!
  18. Excellent idea with a carriage house, and really nicely executed! I'm quite curious what piece you used for the box seats on the ones stored inside (don't think I've seen that before), but the rooms and stables are all great! Beautiful final result on your vineyard builds too - definitely ambitious, but you've pulled it off famously!
  19. As it's the middle of the month now, we'll go ahead and end the fourth freebuild period here and start off with the fifth. So please remember to make a new post in this topic for your builds after Jan. 15th! Yep, the rest of us are going to have to up our game here! It's just as well that Kali wasn't in the lead before or we'd all really be left in the dust sand!
  20. Those raked masts are fantastic, and the top-down view of the deck is just beautiful! I was about to mention that I thought it was a good move to go without minifigs when I read Bregir's comment and your response and spotted them in there, - the sleekness of your vessel had really set me off thinking that it was quite a bit smaller than it really is, and they do look quite appropriate in there! Very nice work, and clever PU on the rear windows
  21. I quite like this - the stone wall is superb, and while it's certainly not something we see a lot in the brick, I'm really liking the low cliff walls too. Maybe a few more slopes along the flattest part would help make it a little more interesting there, but overall I think it's definitely a success! Great job with the landscape colors and gate too, and if I've got one nitpick it'd actually be the cottage walls, which look a little bit too much like vinyl siding to me, But maybe that's just because I live in a house that's got white vinyl siding all the way around Great job overall - keep up the great work!
  22. Very nicely done! The vegetation is just fantastic (that native lying in wait is perfect ), and the step-temple is excellent. Great job with the building on top and the stairs especially, although they do look a bit steep!
  23. Excellent landing scene - the buckets and chests are perfect, and I love those little rock outcroppings too Great color-scheme as well - definitely impressed by how well that water works!
  24. Seconded! The built-in shield technique is perfect here, and you've got the perfect amount of action going on as well Excellent move with the brown arches too!
