    Trying to cross lake Lydall, a small expedition of Findia encounters a sudden mist and their boat hits an Ice berg, to make matters worse the Orcs from the Misty Mountains are attacking them, while they still have to save the rest of the cargo and crew. -- Set in the world of the Whispering Woods, see: https://flic.kr/s/aHsmW3WD4h Encounter in the North by Ids de Jong, on Flickr

    Bestiary entry for Hirska or "Demon deer". The Whispering Woods harbors many dangerous creatures, one such creature is the Hirska. When seen from afar it looks just like a normal deer, only when up-close one sees how big it is, between 1.5 and 2 times the size of a normal horse. It's most defining feature is the single big eye where it's face is supposed to be. Many wonder how such a creature can survive when no visible mouth is observed. Studies into the creatures are sparse, because no-one is crazy enough to get up-close to the beast. A theory of some scholars of Rindael suggest it absorbs it's nutrients from the forest soil through its hooves. It doesn't like visitors, so when encountering it, make sure you leave the area as soon as possible, when it notices you, be prepared to run. It will attack anyone with it's legs or antlers. Hiding behind bushes won't work, because it's eye will see through it, climbing in a tree sometimes helps, but please, find a strong tree, because the power of the beast is enough to fell small and middle sized trees with slamming against it with his head. -- My entry for the Fantasy Creature category of CCC XX.

    Hitori Gotou or 'Bocchi' from the anime Bocchi the Rock. -- I always wanted to make some Chibi figures with Lego like those made by https://www.flickr.com/photos/101845027@N03 Javier Soravilla or https://www.flickr.com/photos/mikevd/ Mike Dung, but seeing that https://www.flickr.com/photos/ted_andes Ted Andes also made some, Chisato and Takina, recently made me want to also finally give it a try. I borrowed some building techniques of those mentioned earlier and used the instructions of Javier Soravilla: https://flic.kr/p/2nUv88W for the frame of the figure. -- For this Chibi figure I had to get creative, I wanted to make Hitori Gotou, but in the show she's mostly wearing pink and her hair is also pink. I wanted to distinguish between the two. So I used "Paradisa" Pink for her body, which severely limits the available pieces and Bright Pink for her hair. Ofcourse I can't forget to include the guitar and an amplifier, I even included a distortion ds2, if you where wondering what that orange thing was.

    An experimental flying cruiser that can be used in space, on the moon base, as well as on the surface. It's three wheeled designed allows it to even be operabele on the road, although flying would be preferred. For atmospheric flight it uses the experimental hover engine and the thrusters are mostly for space flight. Equipped with various long range sensors it's the ideal one-person companion craft for bigger ships, although maybe a bit overkill to be used as a personal shuttle. -- Finally took a picture of this one, which was finished for almost a year...

    In the valley near the lake, lies a small castle. Lord Enzo is watching his son happily watching the animals near the small castle, the guards also keep an eye on the boy, to make sure he doesn't fall in the water. -- Made for the small castle category for CCC XX. -- Inspired by some Italian castles.

    @zoth33 Thanks. @SirBlake Haha, just try and steal my latest MOC too: [MOC] The grand market square of Rindael - LEGO Historic Themes - Eurobricks Forums Thanks for your compliment.

    The busy markets of the capital of Faldia, Rindael, are visited by many different people from Hellum and the northern islands to Felisia in the south, even as far as Sinar and Kadan in the east (see map at the bottom of the post). Because the grand market is such a busy place, it also attracts a lot of unwanted visitors. One such man is Waldor, the master thief. The Lady in white just alarmed the Royal Falcon guard of the robbery, he stole her golden ring. -- Can You help the guards to find Waldor. Apparently a multitude of Golden objects can be found, held by a person: - A golden ring. - Golden coins. - A golden trumpet. - A golden key. - A golden harp. -- If you follow my MOCs and figbarfs of the Whispering Woods, you may find a lot of familiar faces in the crowd, try to spot them all. If you're not yet familiar with my other MOCs, please take a look at the album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/the_inventor/albums/72157719446009410 The grand market square of Rindael by Ids de Jong, on Flickr On Friday, farmers and craftsman come from the country to the city of Rindael to sell their vegetables and fruit to the townsfolk and each other, it's also possible to trade livestock, such as cows. One such pair is currently in negotiation about a couple of cows.

    @sonofasubmariner Thank you. Yes, everything is connected. Hose, Rigid 3mm are fixated on the baseplate with 1x1 clips, and all floor pieces (tiles/plates and plate with clips) are connected to the rigid hoses.

    The great wizard Archibald the second, studies in a corner of the king castle with various magical items brought to him by the kings elite men. A special treasure is needed for one of his experiments and is brought to him by the treasurer. The knight are wondering what weird experiment he will conduct now. -- Made for the castle interior category of CCC XX. Archibald's workshop by Ids de Jong, on Flickr

    Thanks all for the great replies to my MOC, glad you all like it so much. @SirBlake see my reply in your own topic.
  18. the Inventor
    Well, I certainly see the resemblance. I like your touch on it though, such as the skull above the bar and the dart board and carpet in front of the stage. Getting that light for the stage will really improve the looks, just like it did on my build. Thanks again for your compliments even as far as trying to build your own interpretation of it.

    Thanks for the comments. @MontyMatte I'm not really sure, it is one of my faster builds. I started with the gate on the 27th of June and finished the MOC and took the final pictures on the 3rd of July. Although, most of the work was done on the Friday evening, the 1st of July and the weekend. I remember not doing much else that time, so one evening and two whole days of planning/building.

    @LEGO Train 12 Volts Thanks, my first try to build something like this, glad you like it as much as I do.
  21. the Inventor
    @Feuer Zug Thank you, yeah, I had to think about not overcrowding the place and tried several compositions of the figs that they would not overlap each other when taking the pictures.
  22. the Inventor
    @Vliebricker Thank you. Not all characters have been used in a build yet, and the stories are still being thought up for most of them. That is still something I'm slowly working on.
  23. the Inventor
    @TeriXeri Thank you and glad to be an inspiration for your build. @Vliebricker Yes, only parts of the original set are used in this build.

    @Vliebricker Haha, thanks.
