Darnok Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) This years Weelond Oktoberfest had finally inspired the folks of Mesabi Landing to do an Oktoberfest of their own. Scholars near and far still debate why the WTC needed so long to celebrate food, booze and debauchery! The whole thing was a roaring success, and to celebrate the origin of the idea, a statue was built near the city center of Mesabi Landing: A plaque on it read: "In honour of a fine tradition from Weelond, this statue is a monument to the glory of the Oktoberfest!" Two WTC Marines raised their bottles to this: ============================================================================== This is the "twin" of the statue in Weelond. As shown over there already, this is the second one of two almost identical builds: Spoiler You could even combine both, for a scene where both statues raise their glass to each other: This will get licensed as a small art & culture property for Mesabi Landing at a later point. As always, C&C are appreciated. Edited November 14, 2018 by Drunknok Quote
Captain Dee Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 I'm surprised a horse statue isn't somehow featured here... And I wonder when they'll enlarge it to include a (beer) fountain... Quote

Keymonus Posted November 16, 2018 Posted November 16, 2018 Building twin statues was surely a nice idea! The build itself is simple but effective, as minifig posing too. On 11/14/2018 at 10:00 PM, Capt Wolf said: OMG, you just gave me nightmares! Quote

Ayrlego Posted November 16, 2018 Posted November 16, 2018 Great concept of two matching status in the two settlement and the statues themselves are very nicely done. I especially like the way you've mounted the shield to the column. 7 hours ago, Drunknok said: I do not get this reference though. I think he's probably having nightmares of the WTC turning up en masse in Weelond! Quote
