Princess Storm

Keziah was about to approach a tough-looking barbarian lady she saw standing near the quest board, but seeing the look on her face as she turned to grab a drink, Keziah thought better of it. This was clearly not a good time to try to strike up a conversation with her!

Keziah walked into the hall unobtrusively. The whole place was buzzing, people were really excited about something or other. She walked over to where the main hubbub seemed to be, and realised that people were gathering round the quest board. It seemed that two quests had be closed recently, and people were eager to see if they had been chosen. Deciding that it would be better to get the lie of the land before signing up for anything, Keziah walked over to the bar and ordered a drink. She drank her cider and soaked up the atmosphere.

I think we must have posted simultaneously, I had to post and run as I had to get back to college for lectures, but that picture for sure wasn't there when I began writing my post! Thank you so much, the whole ensemble looks cool Now I can join in, yay!

My little sister sat on my 6389 fire control centre - luckily no parts were damaged. Thanks again for your help guys - please don't put Bricklink orders in for special parts for my fig though! (unless you were planning to get them anyway )

Thank you so much! I'll post Bricklink links, if that's ok? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3626bpb051 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=973p4nc01 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=970c55pb01 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=62696 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4499 Also a black cape or something if possible. I'd like the hair in dark brown please :) Also, any old blue trousers will do if you don't have those (or if they look odd - I haven't actually tried that combo) Thank you again so much

Though I'm not actually playing the game at the moment, may I still post here? I'm enjoying following the quests and the goings-on in the Hall so much! Really imaginative characters are emerging (I love De'kra's development at the moment!). I hope the RPG is long-running, so that when I'm back with my bricks I can join in - I even have my character worked out already, though she's not as imaginative as some of those here

Cool, I'm impressed by how much detail you've managed to fit into quite a small space (like the safe-style door at the back of the ATM)

Google chrome reckons there's a possible malware threat from page 20 of this thread http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=28092&st=270 Twice I tried to visit that page, and twice I got the warning - it could be that someone posting on that page has linked to something bad? Maybe unknowingly. Anyway, just thought people should know - not sure what the procedure is here.

It seems that people who regularly behave as described by the original poster tend to get warnings from moderators anyway. To me, at least, it seems that the problem is not the lengthy quotes, which can be legitimate and useful; rather it's the poster quoting expansively and then putting "I agree" at the end. These kinds of posts are against guidelines anyway, so a new rule is not really needed. Also, it would be a pain for the mods to enforce, and a character limit would be really frustrating (if it cut you off mid-word, for example). I do agree that it is really annoying when people do that, (especially when the post being quoted is just above!) but I personally feel that the mods already police this issue enough - we also wouldn't want the forum to become like a police state!

I had this as my very first Lego building: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?S=6689-1 The main set I really remember having as a kid was this one: http://www.brickset.com/detail/?Set=6389-1 My sister sat on it as a toddler

Wow, it's really good to see your whole town together I really like how you've managed to capture the Australian small town feel, and how you've made them buildings interesting whilst still similar enough to really belong together. Good luck with the silos, looks like they'll be epic

That is very cool! I'm extremely jealous ;) I never thought to use the new castle as the wall for a fortified town Do you have any closeups of the layout inside the town (around the buildings from the MMV) that you could show us?

That looks really cool, detailed and realistic :) In the UK, the toilet is often in its own room next door to the bathroom, especially in older houses.

Now that would be cool

Ok, this is my first time ever entering a competition, or displaying a MOC on the internet. I've spent longer photographing, uploading, resizing, etc than the actual MOC took to build so sorry if I've got anything wrong. This is a vignette for the nurse minifig. It's vaccination time at Stormyville High School. All the kids are nervous about seeing the nurse, especially after the rumours about how large the needle is! Students sit down with a drink of water after their shots, trying to relax before going back to class. The whole thing. The only trouble is, without the nurse and with my dodgy photography skills, it looks a lot more sinister posted here than it does in real life!

The left one looks very similar to me in real life, and is my town sigfig. The other two are castle ones: the middle one is a Romany traveller called Kizzy, the right one is Princess Storm in civies I hope this is ok, I think I managed to resize it correctly?

That is so clever! Useful and beautiful :) I was thinking earlier today that a school would be good for the Town theme, either modular or ordinary (?) scale.

Randomness wouldn't show up as none of the same figs being next to each other ;) however, I think it's likely that since the same figs are in every box, they will be positioned in the same place too, as this would be much easier in the factory.

For what it's worth, I wasn't really advocating opened or unopened packets. I'm planning to buy the figs that I want on ebay or bricklink (unless I can easily and quickly identify them by feel in WHSmiths!), and I don't care if they're opened or not. Getting a whole box sounds really cool, sadly I can't afford that - and my husband would think I'd finally lost my trolley!

Hmm, I don't quite see what TLG could do about it; or why they'd have a problem with it TBH. It's their own fault! I think a lot of AFOLs will be very good at barcode matching quickly - some people here can tell the different shades of grey/bley at a glance, for example

I'm sorry, but the line "mistakes the caveman club for the zombie chicken leg" just nearly made me spit tea all over my screen ROFL ahem I think anyone who is selling bagged and identified specific figs needs to say in the ebay listing that they were identified by the barcode (and possibly include a pic of the barcode?). IMO there is a risk to the customer even in this case, because there have been quite a few reports of missing heads etc in the bags

Really nice to see the two jesters together, they look like a nice double-act

"Binary solo 000000100001111......"

I hate to be pedantic, but is there any point in the train station having a bridge, when there's only one track? I mean, of course it's easy to mod it so that the bridge is longer and has two tracks under it, but couldn't TLG just have done that?

Hee hee, it looks funny and cute . My creations always end up stripey too, due to lack of parts in any one colour (mine are different shades of grey and tan though, as they're castles). I think you could easily install a simple lift with a pulley system round the back or on one side and as others have said, some similarly un-coordinated furniture would look cool
