Alopex Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Wow! This is really impressive. I love how you made those trees. Happy new year! Quote
metalgearsolid Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Gorgeous! It's so impressive I guessed it will be displayed at the HK show before I scrolled to the end. Really captures the 'japanese' feel... looking at the MOC brings back happy memories of my past holidays in Japan. Thanks for sharing! Quote
fff Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Awesome! Every detail is an incredible achivement. Congrats!! Quote
Enpaz Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Yeah man, this is great! And so accurate to the real thing. The roofs are perfect! Keep on brickin' Quote
Cecilie Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Awesome! . Great job making this look like an authentic Japanese temple. Those roofs are excellent, and you've really captured the "look and feel". Quote
HeLena Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 WOW! It's unimaginable, inconceivable! I don't have any words to describe this MOC! It's great! Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 You wow us again with your amazing MOC Andybear! There are so many great designs here, from the gong to the water hall. The temple is also really good in design and looks good. Great work! Quote
Zzz Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Absolutely impressive. I love everything about it and it makes me remember my last time in Japan with a lot of good feelings - thanks a lot for that! I noticed that you made some last-minute additions of series 3 minifigs and they figs and pieces fit absolutely perfect! I would like to see more japanese MOCs from you (you seem to be an expert on those, this temple is spot-on!) and if you do, consider the Harry Potter torsos to make some schoolgirls and plain black suits for some salarymen! Those you shouldn't miss! But still, I am stunned - it's beautiful! Quote
jaredchan Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Very great job andybear! Your Zenko-ji Temple is so detailed and true to the original, the colors are just right and the texture of the structures really give that vintage feel! I am sure this will be one of the highlights of the Bricks Adventure show. Disclaimer: I will be participating in the show as well, but surely I can't do something as great as this :-P P.S. In case you guys don't know, Andybear is our new LEGO Ambassador in Hong Kong, congraz Andy! Quote
Zorbas Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 It's one of those times that the word "Speechless" has a true meaning. Well done Andy! Fantastic work! Quote
The Soup Nazi Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 W-w-w....WOW!! This is a truly beautiful MOC, with all of the details... I don't even know where to start! Quote
MightySlickPancake Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) Speechless seams like and understatement. This is truly epic , I love the japanese style. Thanks, CB Edited December 31, 2010 by crabboy329 Quote
def Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 This is beautiful. Sometimes, visiting Japanese temples, I think they'd make great MOCs, but I assume the detailing and shape of the roofs would be too difficult to do, but you've proven me wrong. The details of the temple, like the rinsing station and the fortunes board, not to mention the bell ringer, really capture the feeling. Great job. And I hate to say this, but I think you mixed up Nagoya and Nagano with the names. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Simply an amazing work-of-art! Just plain beautiful throughout. Everything seems perfect from the Japanese architecture and all the small details you've put in there. Congratulations on this yet wonderful creation alan! Quote
AussieJimbo Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Wow. Epic and awesome. Fantastic details. What a great creation. :classic: Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Wonderfoul building. Especially the roofs are very clever, and they must have taken a lot of time to make! These Japanese buildings must be quite a challenge for every MOC'er, but you did a great job I think the water thing (with the horse heads) is my favourite part. Just looks beautiful with all those golden details. Quote
andybear@hk Posted January 2, 2011 Author Posted January 2, 2011 Really say thanks for all of comments. So happy that all of yours like this creations This is beautiful. Sometimes, visiting Japanese temples, I think they'd make great MOCs, but I assume the detailing and shape of the roofs would be too difficult to do, but you've proven me wrong. The details of the temple, like the rinsing station and the fortunes board, not to mention the bell ringer, really capture the feeling. Great job. And I hate to say this, but I think you mixed up Nagoya and Nagano with the names. Oh... what a big mistake. Nagano is correct. Well, really thans for "def" tell me to make correction Quote
def Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Oh... what a big mistake. Nagano is correct. Well, really thans for "def" tell me to make correction You did such a great job, and that's such a little, little thing. Looking forward to your next great creation. Quote
WhiteFang Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 How could I actually miss this? This is excellent and incredible. I am really going to kick myself for not being able to attend the exhibition myself. Geez, this is so beautiful and detailed to the extreme. I just feel like I am in Japan right now. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. By the way, I have updated the title to the right description based on def's input. P.S. In case you guys don't know, Andybear is our new LEGO Ambassador in Hong Kong, congraz Andy! Thanks Jared, and congratulations Andy. Appreciate if you could drop a note in here and we (Eurobricks Staff) will go ahead with something special for you. Quote
blueandwhite Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Very impressive. You've really done wonders with this MOC. The temple itself is fantastic and the detailing is spot-on. The courtyard is also wonderful with an abundance of trees and other small details. I'm really impressed by the entire layout. I'd also like to compliment you on your photographs. Most of them are sharp and draw attention to just how detailed this wonderful MOC actually is. Good stuff. Quote
shutinc Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 That's simply just amazing! And not to mention all the wonderful details you put into this work! You made this one come to life with all those minifigs minding their business and great variety too. I really like how you made the roofs and the gardens. It all looks very authentic. Great work! Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Very impressive MOC of this Japanese Temple, too say the least. The attention to detail is amazing! I couldn't imagine how long it took you just to build the roofs alone. Great work! Quote
BillytheKid Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 WOW Some much details, really a party to look at it. And very nice you used the same minifigs like a family to show all of your moc. Quote
