Midgard is the human world in the Norse myths. Asgard is the gods' world. And there are also seven other worlds.

That's impressive! I think it has more historic, fantasy or even animesque atmosphere rather than sci-fi. I like the use of goggles with Bofur's ushanka hat.

I thought it's about Norse mythology. The MOC is good but it requires more space.

Hello Eurobricks! Artlego, Illarion and I decided that I'll make the remaining parts of the Xenoarchaeologist trilogy by myself. I hope that both people who are unfamiliar with Warhammer 40000 and WH40k fans will like this story. The first part hasn't been released here yet due to translation issues, but it isn't required for understanding this story. This is not a beginning or a prologue of the second part but a trailer for it. Moreover, it's my first theme with photos matching EB requirements to resolution (800x533 or less). P.S. I hope you won't require a glossary but if you do, answer me. So, Allons-y! 815.M41 Year eight hundred fifteen of the forty-first millennium AD. In deep jungle of a far planet, one of the so-called Death Worlds... -Be careful, Seth. Try not to light some monster's eyes - this jungle is full of them. -For the Emperor's sake, Troy! Don't scare me. I've been serving in the Guard for five years and I count as a veteran here. Two Imperial Guardsmen were moving quietly through deadly jungle. One of them called Seth was illuminating the path with his torch while the other called Troy was carrying a vox-caster required to connect with the town. They were the last survivors in their squad which was sent to jungle by the Planetary Governor himself, and their mission was very important... "Look at this, Troy," they were speaking quietly, in nearly whispering voice because wild animals could hear them. "Oh my Emperor," whispered surprised Troy. "It can't be," said Seth. Imperial Guardsmen saw stone ruins in the jungle. A large stone plate covered with moss and grass looked like a sacrificial table and was likely made by non-humans. "I'm sure it's that thing we're looking for," Seth said proudly, "Troy, tell the Governor." But then they heard someone's loud and cheeky voice. "Puny humies! Duz ya know we'z da shootiest in da Galaxy?" "Orks! Run!" veteran Seth realized quickly. Orks pointed their built from scratch shootas at the Guardsmen and opened fire on them. "Dakkadakkadakka!!!" they shouted loudly simulating sounds of firearms. The Guardsmen ran quickly through the jungle. They couldn't overcome the superior Ork forces. If they were alive, the whole squad could defeat the Orks but now there were only two survivors. They were lucky that there were trees around them and that the Orks had usually poor shooting skills. Seth hid from Orkish bullets behing the bush and shot the Orks with his lasgun. Troy thought that was rather stupid. "If you want to die for the Emperor, I don't think now is the best time!" And he was right. An Orkish bullet mortally wounded the overconfident veteran. The torch fell from his hand and blew out. Troy didn't look back. He had no time to take his killed fellow. He hid behind a tree and decided to call the Governor. While Orks were trying to find the puny humie, the Guardsman took his vox caster. "Lord Governor, sir." he said quickly because every second counted, "We've found some ruins to the west from the river! Mission accomplished." "Good job, Guardsman," Governor said and drank amasec from his goblet, "Transmission over." And he hung his vox. Guardsman Troy put his vox caster down and saw the strangest Ork he'd ever seen. That Ork had a primitive wooden peg leg and his head was covered by lots of Hairy Squigs (Xenobiologist's note: Orks do not grow hair so they use hair-like parasites instead). He was holding a mushroom common in this jungle and a wooden staff with feathers. "Ya remind me somefink of," the Ork said slowly. He was looking at Troy with his mad red eyes. The Guardsman tried to yell but he couln't. He wanted to shoot the Ork with his lasgun but some unknown power stopped him. Also other Orks with shootas appeared near the weird Ork. "Mumbo-jumbo, hocus-pocus, alakazam!" the Ork was singing joyfully. Troy called the Emperor in spirit but that didn't help him. Shining lightning bolts appeared from the Ork's staff and the Guardsman's head exploded. Orks laughed in concert. Meanwhile, aboard the colossal spaceship carrying a part of the once mighty Eldar race... The wise Farseer of this Craftworld who lead his people since olden times, was lost in thought. With his psychic abilities he saw threads of destiny and all their cobwebs. He saw dozens of possible futures but he didn't know what to do for making one of them a reality. And one human visited him in visions. He didn't know him but his face pursued him in dreams. The Farseer closed his eyes and tried to track that human in the future but he saw only ancient ruins belonging to a race older than the Eldar... He called Autarch Erestril, a commander-in-chief of the Craftworld's warhost. "The runes told me that death would come to the same place as earlier, Erestril," the Farseer said in calm and vocal Eldar voice. "I'll rally the warriors, Farseer," Autarch responded. "There is no need," Farseer refused, "I'll go there alone". There was horror in Autarch's clear eyes. And a human head continued to look from the crystal ball... "So gentlemen," the Governor invited Lord General of the Imperial Guard and Master of planetary Administratum, "We have urgent business." "At first, we need a XENOARCHAEOLOGIST," the Governor declared. Interesting facts (some behind-the-scenes and trivia). Please read after the story.

This airship possesses somewhat strange, surrealistic design. It's more of a helicopter, not a dirigible. And where is the captain's bridge?

Nice hut. Reminds me of real vikings and Norse myths. And Thor's dog - it's so cute. Additionaly he needs two goats to carry his chariot. And the horned helmet... Make a move, reindeer games!

Cool turrets. They have a Hoth or Warhammer 40k look.

He looks good but the face and the hairdo remind me of Matt Smith. And how did you make a sonic screwdriver?

Hello Mace Windu! Did you recognize me? Excellent work! I remember the film. It will be good to see something from Batman Returns. In my opinion, it's the best Batman film.

Hello Eurobricks! I am a huge fan of Warhammer 40k and have two armies: the Eldar and the Imperial Guard. Here is my small MOC based on the Warhammer 40000 universe. It represents the battle between human Space Marines and mysterious elf-like aliens known as Eldar. The battle rages in a ruined city on the one of billions of Imperial worlds. Noble Space Marines of Crimson Fists Chapter defend the planet from the alien invasion: The Eldar Farseer, the master of psychic war and sorcery, avenges for murdered fellow Ranger: Original ruins from Warhammer 40000 on which the MOC is based: LEGO ruins without the minifigures: The stained glass: The window can be "broken": Here come the minifigures. I decided to make Eldar without their iconic helmets because clone ones and other don't fit. Two Farseers: The cats are called Gyrinxes. They are really psychic animals that can increase psychic abilities of their owners. The Eldar Ranger: Eldar Rangers are outcasts of Eldar craftworlds who serve as snipers on the battlefield. Original Rangers: Space Marines are the genetically engineered super-soldiers of the far future. For them I used almost unchanged Galaxy Patrol collectable minifigures: Original Crimson Fists Space Marine: And the last but not he least - the Imperial Guardsman, an ordinary human soldier with a lasgun: Original Cadian Guardsmen: Thank you for watching! Comments and criticism are welcome.

Greetings! I present you my MOC, the royal palace: This palace stands in a World War One-era country in alternate Europe but has been built 100-150 years earlier. The genre of this MOC can be determined as steampunk, although it has only steampunk atmosphere without rather absurd chiches such as steam robots etc. This palace is inspired by palaces of 18th and 19th centuries, WWI photos and anime Howl's Moving Castle. The palace square, noisy and busy as ever: Newspaper boy: "Latest news! Only we have latest news!" The car close-ups: The car without minifigures: A little girl called Mia lives in a house near the palace. She likes to play with her pet mouse: The empty house: At the center of the square, there is a column with a grim angel statue holding a cross with a snake on it: Many citizens don't like this statue, as it seems too malificent, and this opinion isn't without reasons... The giant royal clock - all the kingdom check their watches with it: Modern electric lights stand in front of the main entrance: Heavy oak gate can open: There is a little chapel in that tower: The stained glass window: Inside there is a pastor playing organ: The chapel can be reached by walking on the wall stylized as a medieval castle: The centerpiece of the palace is the tall white tower: His Royal Majesty King Arcturus I resides there: The tower can be removed: An ambassador from a southern country has an audience with the king, offering him a military alliance: To the right of the king's throne stands his heir prince Valerian who likes ball dancing and nice women. To the left stands prime minister de Duran, the insidious plotter who is considered as a honest and trustworthy man by the prince. Ambassador Cortez and his bodyguards: The large chandelier: The inside of the palace from different sides: The back of the palace: The whole western wing is full of stairs connecting all floors of this palace: In the hall on the third floor a rich banker called Shamrock is photographed: King's office under the tower: King Arcturus is discussing his war plans with general Rodrigo Rodriguez. Models on the table indicate the positions of armies. The general tells the king about engineers who created a self-propelling armored war machine and suggests that there is nothing more powerful than his good old cavalry. The general spends his free time at the balls: Wait... Where are the musicians? The music is played by a new device called gramophone: Someone is singing opera arie on the balcony: On the first floor the servants are setting the table preparing for dinner after the ball: The large royal bedroom on the third floor: The mews: The opened gate: And who are these intruders? The short one calls himself the Professor. He was a science genius who went mad after he failed an experiment with toxic substances. He is accompanied by his loyal Homunculus, the artificial human with a jar instead of his head. The Professor carries a trolley with dangerous potions and wants to blow the palace up using them. Of course, the poor handmaiden didn't expect such guests... There are many mysteries hiding in the palace's dungeons. There wise old wizards are solving mysteries of the Universe: Although magic is officially prohibited in the kingdom, the king didn't refuse to study it. Felix von Helsingfors, the world-famous witch hunter, watches after them and lets no one to escape. The door leads to a prison cell: It's thought that nobody can escape it, but what is this: Someone has opened a secret door in the cell to free the prisoner. This monster is called Edward Hookhands. His origins are unknown, maybe, he came from another timeline of universe. But people have decided that the man with such golden hands can't live free and placed him into the prison cell. That's all, thank you for watching! Comments and criticism are welcome!
