Johnny Cash - Live at Folsom Prison Well actually the documentary but still, its music

Yes I am planning to see it. I will have to remind myself to keep an open mind. You simply cannot take the original and copy it one on one into a scenario. Films and books have different rules. So with the open mind I say: let's give it a chance and enjoy the moviefor what it is: a couple of moments of entertainment.

Totally, and thanks for the opportunity to win the in the future most cherrished Star Wars minifig ever. I'll stop sucking up and start building now.

Do the minifigs and/ or the brick-built minifigs count in the piece limit?

Sure, go for it it's a great way to get inspired. And you made me buy the book this morning, thanks.

Another blast from the past for me. But a nice job you did on the ship and base. Perhaps if you switch the legs from the lookout for these it would look even better (IMHO that is).

Sounds like a great idea

Allthough I had to grab a dictionary to understand the title the MOC depics it all. Nice job, and a nice technic for the lucarnes (I had to look this one up as well).

Oops, you got me there. I haven't really thought of that. I'm now only working with yellow heads. Mainly because that is my first response to lego and because I am basing the characters on my imagination and the covers by Josh Kirby. So my automatic reaction is: "yellow". With yellow you can create the cartoony feel some of Pratchetts characters described in the novels and you have more choice in facial expressions. On the other hand, yellost did an excellent sir Terry here in the flesh so to say. However, I do think fleshy is completely acceptable with movie characters, I do like them in Star Wars and Indiana Jones. And because we have mini-series and movies from the Discworld; Hogfather, The Colour of Magic, I think we can fleshy them as well. In conlusion: They both look acceptable to me, but I am going for good ol' yellow for now.

I think I have spend something between 4000 and 5000 euro. I'm to lazy to calculate the current prices and it may come as a shock. Some sets have really become very costly. I got some bargains and paid the full monty for others . My list is on brickset. See link below.

Now this is a funky little ship. Nice job you did here. It looks perfect for RAIDs Rapid Armored Infantry Deployement

Wow, this a great display. I know it's been said before, but this is truly beautiful work. Interesting technics you have used, food for thought once more. Keep up the good work

Yes sir Mr Spielbrick, you got the idea Just to bring some consistency in the appearance of the characters. And then build like mad(wo)men to great nice MOC's I think i can post the first characters next weekend, if the mail service works as promissed.

Yes they are! It was widened by 10 studs, mainly because of the roofsections The panel comes from 7047 Coast Watch HQ Thanks for the compliments.

Don't worry. We all started that way. So there's hope for you yet. and bricklink, ebay and many, many more

After modifying the Imperial Landing Craft I wanted to do something similar to the Imperial Shuttle. To show that they belong to the same line I used the same roof technic for this MOD. And I had some left from the Landing Craft Well actualy nothing is standard anymore. A nice pic to get us in the mood: The shuttle in landing position. The pilot has been fleshied and got a new kepi for his birthday. The interior of the shuttle, normally the turntables have chairs but this shuttle is due for a major overhaul (for real) The access ramp, using the same technic as the 4504 Falcon. Pull the cockpit and the ramp opens. The roof section detaches for easy access. this way my kids can play with it. It carried everything allready; from casstle-knights to city-paramedics. The ship is scheduled for a major overhaul. I want to change the landing gear and the shape of the sides and wing connections. But sadly so much to do, so little time. more on brickshelf Death Star II pic from Jeff Russel Enjoy.

Thanks for the review I see I have a new set to look for.

Once again a nice MOC/ impuls set! Can't wait to see the rest.

It isn't a planned project or build, just my own thoughts on the Discworld. However I think it would be nice as Discworld fans to agree on surtain things so it will be easy recognicable to others what is depicted in Discworld themed MOC's. I'm putting up what I think may be the characters in minifigstyle as soon as my next bricklink order arrives from the US. But feel free to join in the fun and put the Discworld on the Eurobricks map. That is what it is all about. Build with LEGO and enjoy!

Sorry to disapoint you, march comes first. That means 10 days later.

the hanging ones: The Slave-1 is now hanging from a fishing wire, the normal thread broke crashing it to the ground. So I had a nice rebuild but went for something sturdier to hang it from. A big plus is that the fishing wire is hard to see. You can get it at various strengths meaning there is always an appropiate thickness. And you can be sure it stays up.

I would like TLC to do a Discworld theme: the Unseen University the Nightwatch the Patricians Palace the Mended Drum the Dragon sanctuary Deaths house the postoffice the opera and more. Plus all the great characters off course; Rincewind, the luggage, the wizards, watchmen, dwarfs, trolls, vampires, citizens, thiefs, assassins and so on. All and all there are 36 novels to choose from, that should be enough I think. I mean they did Harry Potter from just 7.

I was asking 2 questions; 1 are there people out there building MOCs based upon the Discworld novels? 2 is this the right forum to post in, for reasons stated in the first post? but that should finally be decided by the moderators, but feel free to add to the discussion.

Dear fellow Eurobrickers, next to my Star wars addiction I'm working more and more on MOC's based upon sir Terry Pratchetts (knighted yesterday at Buckingham Palace btw) books of the Discworld. After a search on the forums I found a few topics but unfortunately a few promissing ones, like this one with the characters, has lost it links to the pictures. What remains is a great MOC of the Mended Drum. Now I would like to here from the Discworld fans; let's recreate the characters with original minifig parts, make more MOC's and see A'tuin reach his destination. Since I do not want to waist topics my included question is: Does it belong in History & Adventure? The Discworld society seems mid-eavel but may represent I seperate theme. I wont go so far as saying it disserves a theme by itself, well it does actually, but there simply isn't a big enough market for it I think. Your comments and suggestions are greatly appriciated.

As suggested by Future74 in my Endor Bunker topic this is how I display my collection. basicly there are 3 ways: the display case next to my plactic models in the book case or simply on the table/ case and finally I have an X-wing, TIE-bomber and Slave-1 hanging from the ceiling.
