Posted September 14, 20159 yr Hi all, Now I would like to present the first part of my historical theme project. I didn't use any real prototype or architectural style. I think it must be a fairy tail castle. In the beginning, I didn't have any knowledge about building technics, and AFOLs, and different lego pieces... It was a never ending process of building and rebuilding and sometimes my kids asked me:"Mom! Why did you destroy it again?" The first picture shows the version before the last rebuilding. I thought that the work was over, but after receiving some critics I rebuilt it again. And this is the last version. Some parts of the tower can be removed. You can see testing new weapon of mass detruction: "plancton's head".
September 14, 20159 yr Great tower! The second version is quite better. The wall is great and all the details too! Good work!
September 14, 20159 yr Great tower!!! Love the open back and the abundant vegetation! Great job and thanks for sharing!
September 14, 20159 yr Yea the second version is MUCH better. The first one was tough to look at because all the grey and dark grey just gave it an effect that played with my eyes haha. Good job its a very nice tower and wall.
September 15, 20159 yr Stunning build! Wonderful job building the octagonal tower and incorporating it with the walls And you even included an interior! Not an easy feat with non square towers. Beautifully vibrant landscape too
September 15, 20159 yr Great build ! The second version is really better. I really love the way you introduced some "fairy" elements, it is uncommon, very good job !
September 16, 20159 yr Gorgeous work. The river has a slope flow. Color and relief matched perfectly. Please continue.
September 16, 20159 yr Very nice, the second build makes it a bit easier on the eyes to distinguish the rock work from the tower, the vibrant flower/grass bits are lovely. The grill pieces work for me on the outside but for some reason I find them a bit off on the inside. I look forward to seeing more Edited September 16, 20159 yr by Isundir
September 16, 20159 yr To be honest I like the first one too :) I see there few really nice techniques. Pictures are great and grass looks really awesome. I just don't get why you have so many technic bricks. If you use more then 4 pins on a side you will just destroy whole MOC when you will try to disassemble it :P
September 17, 20159 yr Author Thank your all for comments. Sometimes I must to used technic bricks or bricks with studs on side because I didn't have another.
September 18, 20159 yr It looks great, the amount of detail on both the wall and the vegetation is incredible. This gives me a great idea for making vines and even putting some flowers on them. I got a question though: Is the guard without helmet beating those poor cats with a club?

I have a funny story about this place, but no time to translate it.
September 19, 20159 yr I just don't know where to start! Well... eh... first things first: it's amazing! The huge detail and lovely vivid colours of the vegetation is awesome! (first impression) The wall and tower have good detail and proportions. Oh hey, it has a improved colour pattern compared to the previous build. (second thought) Bloody hell! This thing looks gorgeous from the back! Even better architectural detail, I love the symmetrical stairs and the recess with the sword. Also some nice minifigs and a scene going on. (after a little scrolling down) What?! This thing has an accessible interior with great details, once again! The staples of cards are just perfect, cause everybody knows what guards do when they are off on duty! And then, there is this: In the beginning, I didn't have any knowledge about building techniques, and AFOLs, and different lego pieces... It was a never ending process of building and rebuilding (...) When did you start this project then? I mean, this model leads me to believe you have years of building experience, it is just so bloody good! :thumbup:
September 23, 20159 yr Great build, the colour scheme works really well and it's very effective the way the landscaping at the bottom merges into the stone tower.
