The Penguin's Dwarven Archaeology. )

[The Penguin]

Good day, ladies and gentlemen! )

I've always liked dwarven theme in LEGO, and most of my Castle MOCs are also dwarven-based. ) But I've always liked Adventurers theme too. So why not combine them? )

So I present you my Dwarven Archaeology vigs which will come in three parts. ) I hope you'll like them:

Today it's

Part 1.

Any comments, ladies and gentlemen? )

I love that dwarf, that head piece really suits that dwarven beard.

Nice use of those Indiana Jones pieces, what sort of room is it supposed to be?

[Captain Blackmoor]

The adventures helmet looks nice along with the dwarf minifig. Good combination and a great idea!

Now only hope the dwarfes won't ruin the artifacts and ruins they find because of their rough mining skills.

I'm looking forward to see the next part!

[Princess Muttonchops]

I love the dwarf in the pith helmet. Pith helmets forever!!

[Batbrick]

I love the dwarf in the pith helmet. Pith helmets forever!!

Agreed, I hope to own one one day. Pith helmets forever!

Great vignette Penguin, I - PENGUIN! You're back! I haven't seen you in ages friend!

Great stuff here as always friend, loved the useo f the Indy stickers, and the dwarven minifig is one of the best I've seen. The simplicity really sells it I think, but I also love that plant column, very neat.

To the Brickmobile!

[HumanPackMule]

It's Brann Bronzebeard!

Looks great!

I can't wait for part 2.

Great little MOC, I really like the wall tapestries. The MOC could use some furniture, The room looks a tad bare. ~LW 8~

Thank you. )

Oh, it can be any room, really. Since it's a vig, a small scenery, I didn't mean any exact location. ) Say, some ancient temple of a forgotten race? )

Indeed. ) They're a threat. But on the other hand, just imagine how many new artifacts will they be able ti dig out! )

Thank you. ) I hope you'll like them. )

Yes, I'm very glad to see you too, friend! ) I'm back with new Batman ideas, so I hope, you'll like them. ) Oops, sorry for offtopic. )

Thanks a lot! ) Indeed, I think that simple doesn't always mean banal, does it? )

It's Brann Bronzebeard!

I beg your pardon? )

Thank you very much. )

Thank you. ) Yes, the first variant, inded, had other furniture, but I thought it looked pretty stuffed up, so I left only the nessesary items. )

Thank you for your comments. Good day. )

Brann Bronzebeard

[samthelegoman1]

I like the plants and the wall-prints. The desk could use some work, though.

P.S. 500th post!

[Sir Dillon]

Despite Dwarves originally being from the Castle line, this isn't a castle creation and would fit better in the Adventures line. I'll move this to the Action Themes forum.

[Dr Kilroy]

Nice, I like it! I also like dwarven and Adventurers, but I don't ever try to combine them (maybe because I don't have dwarven ). I wait for second part! (maybe there will be dwarven-indians? )

[The Penguin]

Ladies and gentlemen! ) Thank you for your comments and suggestions. ) I'll make take them into account when I start building something new. )

Now, as promissed, Part 2. )

While the first dwarf was studying the old map, the second one went exploring the temple.....

What's that!? Oh, no! He's in great danger! )

However, what dwarf cannot stand for himself!? )

Thank you for your attention! )

Any comments, ladies and gentlemen? )

These are great!

The detail on the sets is wonderful as well as the humour and action.

Great work! I look forward to part 3.

[Eldervampire]

Hey Penguin,

First, the Dwarven adventurer, awesome. Good designs and excellent humor. I normally root for the undead, but for you I'll make an exception.

Also I hit up some of the links in your sig. MAN! You have got some great skills and obviously loved B:TAS. I doff my hat to you sir.

I also like undead and used to collect them, but LEGO dwarves are just great. Plus, for some reason, I seem to have a certain ability to create nice dwarven MOCs. )

Thank you very much for that! ) Indeed, I love BTAS. And please feel free to check my upcoming topic in Minifig Customization Forum. )

Good day, ladies and gentlemen! )

[The Penguin]

The dwarves have escaped the perils of the ancient Temple and now wish you a farewell! )

But something ir lurking behind them..... )

Thank you for your attention, ladies and gentlemen! )

Very good haul... if they make it away alive.

These three scenes have been very detailed and well-built. It's a shame you only made three. They're really good.

Thank you and well done, Penguin.
