LBaixinho started following [MOC] The peculiar inn of Mrs. Gertrudes and [MOC] Aura Matutina
-
(If this isn't the best board for this MOC, please, move it!) This is Aura Matutina, a flying ship from my own theme, OutroMundo. More images in this Flickr Album. Some years ago I build others flying ships (1, 2, 3, 4), so this is a return to this theme. Hope you liked!

Congratulations Jan, it's a fabulous work. The dedicated time and effort shows your love for LEGO toys and space exploration. I loved the way you also told the backstage of the story!

Thank you all! Maybe before the inn was a pirate hideout :D -
A Peculiar Estalagem da D. Gertrudes 1 by Luis Baixinho, on Flickr After the Mars Rover I was planning to build a fantastic/medieval MOC. Due to the lack of parts, I postponed this project and went ahead with this one. The idea was even to make a small inn of an unusual shape on an island. The main inspiration of the idea (and not the construction itself, since the result was to be quite different) came from a Miyasaki film, Porco Rosso. I liked the concept of "house-island" so much that I intend to return to the topic briefly. A Peculiar Estalagem da D. Gertrudes 2 by Luis Baixinho, on Flickr The construction process was quite linear as I was not interested in abusing with advanced techniques. I wanted attention to focus on the MOC itself and not the way I did it. I was building over several days without any great hurry and, amazingly, I just had to make a big change that led me to "split in half" the MOC to replace a part. Most of the details came naturally, always with some care so as not to break the apparent peace of the place and preserve a timeless air. A Peculiar Estalagem da D. Gertrudes 3 by Luis Baixinho, on Flickr A Peculiar Estalagem da D. Gertrudes 4 by Luis Baixinho, on Flickr ps. I don't know if this is the best board for this MOC, since the era is historical but not defined. The Moderators can change it if you feel better.

Great work! I highlighted at my blog last week: https://oficina.blogs.sapo.pt/heavy-communications-rover-1106382

Thank you both :)

Build something Martian? Humm, I had never thought about it. But it is still an interesting suggestion. Mainly because it could go in unconventional ways, something like the Bradbury's Martian Chronicles.
-
In the meantime I made a short video (in portuguese) explaining the features of MOC: Thank you,
-
Never saw one of that. Seems very interesting, thank you. Thank you. The cockpit part appears in this set: 60225: Rover Testing Drive I definitely want to do more MOCs on this theme (I even have several Vitruvian tiles), however at this moment I don't have anything planned.
-
Thank you. Can you give me the bricklink ref? I'm curious with this tyre.
-
Thank you. The cockpit and an image from a boardgame (here) was the main starting points of this MOC. Normally I build small things, maybe because i loved to play LEGO in the 80s :D Life on Mars was one of my first loved themes after my dark ages. I'm trying build some vehicles and structures with the Vitruvian logo. Thank you.
