Sacking of Colchester by Boudica

October 16, 2012

James Pegrum and Malravion assembled together several MOCs, including the Roman Colchester Theater, bringing to life this awesome roman layout describing an assault of enemy troops into the city.

Read more about this creation at James’s MocPages.

Roman Colchester Theater

September 14, 2012

James Pegrum is one of my favorite “historical builder”. Today he presented us a wonderful creation of a Roman theater.

The applied techniques are rather simple, however he managed to capture with great detail the grandiosity of the ancient building.

LEGO Colosseum

TheBrickMan is the author of one of the best historical recreations I have seen lately. The LEGO Colosseum has a huge amount of details and the mix of the past and present is phenomenal!

Collectible Minifigures Series 6 and 7

October 15, 2011

Toys N bricks had publish the first official pictures from the upcoming series of Collectible Mifigures. Like previous collections, these new series presents new historical figures that will delight many LEGO fans.

The 6th series presents a roman warrior. Personally I’ve been waiting for ages for the LEGO roman empire. This figure and the new rounded bricks of the Atlantis sets will make a beautiful  combination :-)

This collection also presents a barbarian warrior, which is nice for the battles against the roman army, and a cowboy that will fit perfectly in any western MOC.

 

 

The 7th series presents a Viking warrior (girl?), a cool hippie that will fit nicely 10220 Volkswagen T1 Camper Van and, my favorite, the Aztec warrior (or at least, what I think that it is). The mermaid man will also make a cool Neptune roman god of the sea.

Happy Christmas

War has come!

October 17, 2010

Valentin (aka Skalldyr) submit this great representation of the Roman invasions for the Mini Castle Contest at Classic Castle. The Roman soldiers are amazing! I loved the techniques he applied to build the spears and the Centurion’s helmet. Before ending the post, one last mention to the cool buildings including the temple’s fire.

Ave Caesar

September 10, 2010

Kaitain is building a colossal MOC of the ancient Roman Chariot Racing. He based his idea in the new LEGO Games and made this huge boardgame. He says that the MOC is a Work In Progress (WIP) and therefore History Bricks will follow his work until is complete :)

You may see more pictures and the making of the MOC here.

Roman chariot (WIP) – Historybricks exclusive

February 21, 2010

Today, I present the first HistoryBricks exclusive. I’ve built in Bricksmith a small “study” of a Roman chariot pulled by two horses. It’s a Work In Progress (WIP) and stills missing some parts that were hard to build using the software (chains and ropes) but I think it’s enough to get the idea of the final MOC.

My next step is a visit to Bricklink to order the parts needed :)

War Chariot

January 24, 2010

Qworg built a nice two horse war chariot! He does not specify who’s ridding it but I will guess that is a roman chariot. The horses are really nice but he give credits to Zgrredek for the idea.

You may see more pictures at flickr.

Microscale Colosseum

December 26, 2009

I found this creation on The Brothers Brick blog and is a microscale version of the Roman Colosseum made by rack911. The MOC is full illuminated with small lights which make a nice glow effect on the dark.

See the flickr gallery for more pictures.
