Beautiful build! The size is very deceptive, looks a lot smaller then it really is. Great use of colours and I love all the tunnels and interior. Very cool👍

Most excellent work! I love ruin Mocs and this certainly does the job!

That's really cool and different! Not good in an earthquake but cool :) Must have been tricky trying to get it to stay in place. I would have been good if you had built another rock jutting out that the walkway/bridge connects too but that's a small niggle. Nice work :)

The book will be much more in-depth when it comes to guides, the magazine articles are more of a watered down version but still full of helpful info :) The book will be a physical release, not sure weather they will do an ebook version as well, thats for the publisher to decide. The release date was supposed to be later this year but is now looking more like an early 2017 release.

Hi all I have not been very active here for a while but that does not mean I have not been building! Lego has now pretty much become my job after setting up my own business and getting myself involved in as many projects as possible. The castle theme is still a big part of that and I am currently working on a book which will be featuring tons of different mocs never seen before as well as every tip, technique and guides that I hope will help and inspire anyone who loves and builds in this theme. I have also started a new advanced guide in Bricks Magazine and over the next 12 issues I will be showing and revealing how to build all those crazy angles, roof techniques, realistic stone work and everything you need to know to build a scene that really looks alive alive. For an example of where I am, here is my latest creation and this is the sort of thing I will be explaining how to build in the magazine. Lots more info and pictures in the Magazine... For those interested here is the link for Bricks Magazine http://republic66media.com/ For all regular updates on everything I have coming out including my custom sets, please check my Facebook page https://www.facebook...23164767891806/ Many thanks DC

Still running from the attack on his village and the evil army that is laying waste to the land, young Gawaine continues his journey into the most mysterious depths of the Dark Isle. He now finds himself at the foot of a mysterious castle manor inhabited by goblins and a wizard who seems to rule over them. Could they be allies or an enemy? This whole particular sub chapter of the Dark Isle Saga was mainly created as an excuse for me to dabble in a few more fantasy styled builds and go a bit more over the top. So just a bit of fun really :) Not really sure if I'm even posting this in the right forum anymore as I have been very out of touch with GOH for a while but seeing as the mocs from this series are all based in Avalonia I figured its the best place. I will hopefully have a lot more pics available on flickr over the next few days with more close ups of the details.

Glad to hear you appreciate it. It's always nice to get praise but it sometimes comes to the point where people feel afraid to point out where improvements can me made and as Lego builders we need to know our weak points so we can learn and become better. I'm just the same, I constantly want to improve and welcome any critique that people have that I could improve on. Keep up the good work, I'm sure your next moc will have improved even more.

Drudwyn takes Sarlina to his cottage to gather supplies and reveal his agenda. I apologize for the barrage of mocs but I had a few to post and there's more to come. Enjoy

Sarlina is very much alive and tends to set free an evil Druid who she believes may help her cause! I will add story text at a later date. Enjoy.

Hey guys, its been a while but I'm building again. First freebuild is an old moc from last year: More pictures on my Flickr Not sure how I claim points for this stuff as Its been a while since I was on here but its all for Avalonia!

Hey Guys I must apologize for my inactivity, I have had a long drawn out house moving saga topped off by two close family deaths, so things have been difficult. I have pretty much finished my new Lego room so hope to be back building again soon. Good to see a great selection of awesome mocs being still being pumped out by you guys!

Hey Guys This is an old moc from way back in January that I never got round to posting here. It was a commissioned build of a haunted cottage that originally started off as a CCC entry. I wanted to give the cottage some real character and modelled it in the shape of a ghoul with out stretched arms glaring down. I have been absent all year due to moving house and other family reasons but plan to hit back in a big way soon!
