Drink And Be Merry!

Castle Hadrian
November 14, 2010Stefan F (aka busboy489) built this beautiful castle for the Realist Castle category of CCCVIII at Classic Castle.
Among all the incredible details I liked the wooden bridge built with round bricks and the top of the biggest roof. Finally, the technique is not new but I really like the color bricks that break the monotony of the gray wall.

Ye Old Forge
November 8, 2010The blacksmith’s shop is the newest MOC of Derfel Cadarn, one of my favorite builders. The overall design is great as well as the lot of incredible details. The technique to build the stone walls using small round parts isn’t new but, once again, proofs that works very well to get the desired effect.

Journey to Camelot
November 8, 2010Journey to Camelot is another cool micro-construction of the legendary city of Camelot. This version of Camelot was built by blego7 with great construction techniques (see the pictures bellow). The small boat is one of my favorites pieces in this layout.
Here’s one of the most interesting details of this construction, where blego7 used a pile of small 1 x 2 panels to show this nice “stair” effect:

Journey to the afterlife
October 29, 2010Hazel King (aka HoneyBee) shows us the moment where the family and the loyal guard pays a last tribute to the deceased King before he starts its journey to the afterlife. The use of a boat to send the burning corpse to the afterlife was a common ritual in the Viking community.
The MOC shows a nicely boat and some cool details such as the wet sand and the sea waves.

Peace Sells…But Who’s Buying?
October 9, 2010Derfel Cadarn has done it again!!! A beautiful medieval diorama “A deadly group of dragon knights are storming the land, visiting every wealthy Lord and land owner and giving them one choice, you either pay for peace or die, simple! Can You put a price on peace?”
We are used to see some masterpieces made by Derfel, and this MOC is no exception. It’s hard to enumerate all the amazing details, but I’m looking at the small bridge, the highly detailed wooden decoration of the house, the stone walls and the great minifig situations.

SnowLion Keep
October 6, 2010We’re at the beginning of Fall but LegoLord went some months ahead and presents this cool castle in the middle of the snow. The overall design is good, I liked some of the details in the walls and it’s not common to see a castle in a snow environment. He just forgot to introduce some snow over the building to give a more realist effect of the winter environment. Nevertheless, is a nice construction to admire!

Eggplants Chateau
September 21, 2010Castles are one of my favorite types of MOCs and Eggplants Chateau built by Eggy Pop explains why. The color gradient bellow the tower gives a nice water depth effect, the rock work is nice and I loved the way he used the grey “yellowed” bricks to build the wall and make it more real.
another nice feature of this MOC is the fact that Eggy only used four different colors: grey, blue, brown & white.
