Dr Rod Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Recently three GoH members (Myself, I Scream Clone and Frumpy) collaborated together on a build for a local Sydney show. Shadow Woods 06 by Dr. Rod, on Flickr The left side is by I Scream Clone, the forest by myself and the right side by Frumpy. The diorama shows a Nocturnus and Avalonian castle, separated by the "Shadowpath Forest". Location is the North west corner of Nocturnus, in the foothills of the Rakath Mountains. Will link to more detailed photos when available. Shadow Woods 03 by Dr. Rod, on Flickr Dr Rod Quote
Puvel Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Gorgeous place! Love the variety in the trees. Also yay for piggies! Quote
LEGO Runner Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Looks fantastic! As someone who is always looking for great works of landscape to learn from, this is wonderful! I look forward to more pictures! Quote
Blufiji Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Good to see you guys back at it. The castles really do match the look of their guilds, and the forest is really dense. Wonderful work all three of you. Quote
TitusV Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 I jus don't want to know how much time and bricks you put into that (MOC seems so small a word) Quote
Mike S Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 I really like the classic feel of this! Scenes like this are what make me remember my childhood Lego imaginations and want to get my bricks out and start building. Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Love this, looking forward to more pictures! Quote
Jacob Nion Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Amazing layout. Great to see once again that Nocturnus is more than swamps and lava. Can't wait to see more detail shots. Quote
Brick Man Studios Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Awesome build guys ! :wub: Pretty nice work ! :thumbup: Quote
Graham Gidman Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Absolutely fantastic! Capture both GoH and classic-Castle. Well done! Quote
frumpy Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 These poor guys will be the first casualties... Quote
soccerkid6 Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Epic collab in both size and detail Your forest looks quite real, which isn't easy to pull off. Can't wait for more pictures Quote
LittleJohn Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Amazing collab, you three! The landscaping is fantastic and I love the castles Definitely looking forward to more pics Quote
Adair Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 *Spits out Coffee.* THAT IS HUGE!!!!! That said, some nice detailing! Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Amazing ! Great to see a collaboration (it is not so common) and what a build ! Quote
Gideon Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Excellent collab! How big is it? As a collab organizer in Swebrick I would also be interested in knowing how you coordinated the build and how the interfaces between the modules look like? Quote
Hobbythom Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 What a great forest. Must be a pleasure to own. Quote
Spader Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 *Sprays coffee everywhere* Where did you get the parts to build THAT? Awesome collab, and I love the detailing. Quote
de Gothia Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Amazing! Just amazing!! Love the whole thing. I want more photos!!! Quote
Dr Rod Posted October 6, 2015 Author Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) Excellent collab! How big is it? As a collab organizer in Swebrick I would also be interested in knowing how you coordinated the build and how the interfaces between the modules look like? It is 4x12 32 baseplates. We collaborated via photos and FB messages. We planned a layup day but it fell through due to work committments. I built the forest edges/interfaces using photographs of the two end sections and aimed to be a plate or two below the corresponding section. Then I just took plate to add around and lock sections together. All the plants were added on site, took 4.5 hours to place them all and build the trees :) Dr Rod Edited October 6, 2015 by Dr Rod Quote
kabel Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 I really love all of this and hope that one of these days I will do a collab of this size with someone else too. However, where is the place Avalonia and Nocturnus share a border? Shouldn't Cedrica be in the way? Quote

frumpy Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Maybe.. or maybe some crazy tight wearing Avalonian decided to plant a castle there for funsies.. Dr Rod I may wear tights (and look good in them) but I'm not crazy - my mum had me tested... Here is a picture of my end. Quote
ZCerberus Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 I may wear tights (and look good in them) but I'm not crazy - my mum had me tested... I'd be cool if it weren't for all the Avalonian-ness. Quote
