I have not posted on Eurobricks for some time, but have just completed a new MOC that people may find of interest. The story is portals have been discovered which lead to different realms and this one has opened into the realm of the Vampire. One of the distinguishing features of this build is the use of Tensegrity to generate a "floating effect" for the Vampire haunted house. The house sits atop a rocky "floating" platform "tethered" to the ground with massive chains to ensure it doesn't float away. The raised causeway that joins that leads from the portal to the haunted house is lit by lanterns along its length and the haunted house has shining jack-o-lanterns in the windows. The Tensegrity element of the build was particularly challenging as the structure had to hold a considerable weight for several days for a local Lego show. Looks like the picture has not uploaded properly. Will have to find another way to add it in. Apologies but it has been a long time since I last did this. Hopefully this photo link does the job.
