LOTR & The Hobbit 2012
Same here. In comparison to the rest of the set it looks too "easy". A small child could've probably built that. Apart from this little flaw I think Bag End is a lovely set. The minifigs look great as expected. We also get those brick bricks in a new nice color and the door seems to be a new mold as well. The details of the windows are amazing - a very nice touch. Now I'm looking forward to see some decent interior shots. A detailed interior would make that set to one of the best sets on the market!

LEGO Star Wars 2013 Pictures and Rumors
Nice. I didn't like Jabba's Palace too much by itself. Now I'm starting to finally like the set. The Rancor Pit will be a great addition, and I'm very curious what further modules TLG will give us in the future. I guess many people who started building a Rancor Pit for that "Jabba's Palace Building Contest" are going to be quite frustrated when finding out that it's already been announced. Anyway, the Rancor looks very cool and I really like the "Rancor Trainer" minifig (don't know what his name is). The set itself doesn't seem as if it contained a lot of pieces, so I guess it'll be somewhere in the 50$/€ price range. If so, it's a sure buy for me!

Battle for the Imperial City
Oh my gosh. I guess there are no words to describe how marvelous your creations are. Your tower on the first picture made of "brick" bricks is my favorite. It looks very realistic and has a very classic feel to it. I love the way you filled the gaps between the walls with cheese plates The other builds are just as good and show how much dedication you put into building them. This is probably gonna be frontpaged very soon.

MOC - classic castle
One advice: You shouldn't be so "loud" about promoting your set. If people like it they will still vote, as you already anounced your Cuusoo participation in your first post No need for further off-topic posts. ON-topic: I think that's an amazing and very creative idea you had there. The wolf is instantly recognizable and a perfect keep for the wolfpack. I also like the way it opens to reveal the inside of the wolf-castle and its splendid chandelier. Great work; looking forward to see more of you soon!

MOC: Warehouse
I'm glad you came back to show off your MOC I really like the truck, but the tilting shelve tops everything else. That's a great idea that you managed to built very very well. Brick on!

Living room from the 80s
Your MOC's got a great atmosphere and reminds me of a typical apartment you get to see in older movies. I especially love the way you used the rope as a TV cable. That's an awesome idea
-
Nature in distress
That's a very well built micro-scale MOC. Great job on the photoshopping. Makes it appear even better I suppose.

MOC: Modular Modern Home
Very interesting choice of color, gives your house a very extravagant appearance. That bright yellow/blue combination is a little aggressive but I guess there are people out there who'll love it Although you mostly used basic techniques, you added some nice little details. I especially like the plant on the balcony and the usage of cheese plates as door window is very good! Thanks for sharing this.

Legoredo Cinema
That's a good start "WideWiiLover". I like that you integrated two theatres and are already thinking about adding another one. All MOCs of cinemas I've seen so far only had one! May I suggest that you add some more details to the facade of your cinema? I'm sure there's more to come with the following floors, yet it seems a little too plain by itself. Keep up the good work

Good way to start?!
Hi "AgentRed", I was in a similar position like you a couple of years ago. The way I started off was by simply buying a lot of sets. I never bought them at the original price level though. Always kept looking on ebay for good finds which usually worked out quite well. But still that was way too expensive to get a lot of parts on the long term. Today, I buy used but complete sets with instructions and the box. Later on I sell the box, the instructions and the minifigs on ebay. This way I can get a lot of bricks at a good price level, because many people are going crazy about minifigs and still pay quite a lot - even without the bricks. If you need any more help or tips, don't hesitate to PM me, if you want in German

Moc 16x16 burl
All of those three vignettes are very well built. If I had to pick one of your vigenttes I'd definitely go for your Endor scene. The idea behind it is just great. I suppose no one has ever done that before

Watchtower Diorama
Very realistic looking MOC. The tiled tower is amazing!

Porsche 930 (minifig scale)
This is by far the best minifig-scale car I've seen so far. Great MOC of one of my all time favorite cars. Hope to see more iconic car models coming from you soon

Market Day in the village of Arod Mearas
That's one nice crowded MOC "Doornroosje". It really brings the scene to life and shows how busy everyone is. Great job
-
Modular Madness: Ferrari Car Dealership
I'm a great fan of Ferrari itself and have been to several Ferrari dealerships. Your MOC brings the atmosphere across very well. Although it's got a simple outside and I would have liked a second floor, I totally love it. The Ferrari sign really makes it stand out. Excellent work
-
Modular Madness: Museum of History
WOW, using mainly white bricks you managed to create a very attractive facade. I already liked your museum before I even saw the interior shots. After seeing them I'm totally blown away. The interior is top notch. Definitely a claimant for the 1st place in this contest!

MOC: Life at stake
Thank you for all of your nice comments I'd been building this MOC for a couple of weeks. The landscape part only took about three day though. It was the castle I had problems with so I eventually stopped. I'm definitely going to continue with smaller MOCs first. That'll be a whole lot easier I guess.

Review: 9474 The Battle of Helm's Deep
That's one massive review ISC It's a very unique set with lots of nice techniques and especially awesome parts. But since I'm not a big fan of those modular castle sections I'm gonna pass on this one. Rather prefer a castle in one solid piece I suppose
-
MOC: Life at stake
Thank you for your kind words! There won't be any castle, unfortunately. I already disassembled the one I built because I didn't like it. I'm definitely gonna built a castle someday, but not as part of this MOC. Cheers

MOC: Life at stake
Hello everyone, I'd like to present you my very first MOC. I actually planned on building a castle, but wasn't satisfied at all with the way it turned out. In order to still be able to show you something I decided to create a little scene with the landscape-part of my MOC I was left with after disassembling the castle. It's the first time I started building again after several years - hope you still like it though Here you go: Overall view - note that I took two trees off of medieval market village This poor lady's being persecuted by some villains. Will she be rescued? That stone might be her savior!? Help's on the way Nothing's going to ruin his glorious moment! Here you can see the place where I wanted to locate the castle: Well, as you can see I still need some improvement on my building techniques. I'll probably start by doing some smaller MOCs in the near future as I slowly lost my patience with this one Now shoot me with your comments and criticism Cheers

What's your latest acquisition?
Just bought 105 collectable minifigs (mainly from series 5 and 6) for 98€ on ebay last week. All of them came in great condition, including three Roman soldiers and four Highlanders who'll be great for my next MOC. Pretty decent buy I suppose Also got myself a second copy of the medieval market village. I didn't have the heart to disassemble my first copy to get some of the parts. It just looks too perfect on its shelf

Opening sealed antique sets - wonderful or painful ?
Well, I'm one of those guys who keeps a lot of his sets unopened. There are tons of sets that are waiting to be opened - but not by me I love having LEGO as a hobby, but I'm not willing to spend this much money on all of those sets I wanna have. So, what I do is waiting for a set to be on sale at my local mall or look on ebay for good buys. When I find them I usually buy a couple or a little more (if it's a small set I sometimes buy a lot of 'em). I cannot wait opening up new bought sets and I'll never be able to understand people who have the patience and strength to keep them MISB! The good thing is I only need to open one set, so this way I don't mind leaving a set MISB if I already have it. The sets I didn't open are goona be stored for a while or are being sold right away if I can sell them at a higher price than I bought them. Handling it this way I've been able to enjoy a great hobby at a fair price. All in all I'm only spending about 30-40% of the original price on each set (I used to make a list to see what I'll be ending up with). But this only works in case I kept the double set for quite a while until its price increased (Star Wars Sets are usually the best ) That's the reason why I keep some of them MISB

[MOC] The long dark of Moria
WOW, this is just stunning. Kinda reminds me of this MOC by "gears" I've seen a few days ago. You did a brilliant job capturing the scene of the movie. I only have one suggestion: I guess it would be even more impressive if you made a darker picture of your MOC, maybe even black & white. That would make it look way more accurate in my opionion

Vote for your favourite Category B entries
I like number 3 by far the most. Great color selection there. Number 2 is awesome as well. It actually does look like a real fitness center. So my final vote's gonna be: 3) 2 points 2) 1 point
-
Vote for your favourite Category A entries
All of those entries are great! But number 22 sticks out the most so: - 2 points for #22 (incredible idea. I'm always blown away when people come up with ideas like those stars) - 1 point for #1 (I just love the Egyptian Adventures theme)
