Posted March 21, 20222 yr Shepherds Simon and Sarah and their flock of sheep 1 sheep, 2 sheep, 3 sheep, ... . That looks correct. It's a beautiful Monday morning. Or Tuesday? Or Wednesday? For the sheep, all days were the same, and for Simon the shepherd, actually, too. Together with his sister Sarah they started a sheep farm here in Damaborg. From MAESTRO they got a nice piece of land at the end of the settlement, Near the wooden ramparts. Which was ideal, because under the walkways Simon made stalls for his sheep. So it was a nice morning. In the distance, some murmurs sounded and marching footsteps approached. Sarah!!! Sarah recognized the voice, dropped everything, and ran to the fence of the fence. Maarten! Maarten had just returned from a reconnaissance mission. Along with a reconnaissance company, he marched to The Intelligence Headquarters. He received permission from Captain Bert to leave the marching procession and go to his wife Sarah already. After days in the unexplored territories, he was so happy to fall in the arms of Sarah. He could not wait to have a good pint of apple cider as he has so many experiences and stories to tell his wife and brother-in-law. (New part of story 24/3) Simon smiled seeing his brother-in-law and Sarah hugging. Simon arrived just in time as well. The first sheeps could be sheared and the fresh wool has to be sent to the cloth makers of Damaborg. Decent and warm clothing could be very important the moment the bigger exploration missions will start. Simon looked again to his sheep. A moment of sadness fell over him knowing that some of his sheep will be slaughtered soon for meat. He knows it is a part of the job, but still it is the part he doesn't like. Oh well, Simon is happy the sheep can at graze peacefully without any sorrows right now. --- Thanks for watching (and reading if you had the time)! C&C welcome :) It was a very fun moc to make and happy I could do something with those sheep I discovered that you can place them diagonally as well, wich is genius of LEGO! will be licenced as a medium plantation. I could have expanded the grasslands with green baseplates and what vegetation, but to be honest, I didn't see the plusvalue of it. Edited March 24, 20222 yr by Maxim I
March 21, 20222 yr That's very nice! I really like how lively it looks with all the sheep and soldiers! Excellent looking fence too!
March 21, 20222 yr Fun build! I like the slight bow/curve to the fence line and the walls look good. Sheep! Interesting tile technique on the building
March 21, 20222 yr This is a very beautiful and peaceful diorama! A smart idea to build the stalls below the walkways. The grassy field is uneven and the house is placed at an angle. I like the fence because you can make angles with this construction. The sheep are great, even a rabbit can be seen. It's a good diversity to see green soldiers again.
March 21, 20222 yr Loving this. The manger being built directly into the palisade is an excellent idea!
March 21, 20222 yr Nice build, the cabin is well constructed! I do wonder how they count all those sheep without falling asleep though!
March 22, 20222 yr Oh I love the split rail fence ... And an added plus I'm now convinced I bought enough sheep for a small flock ... I also really like how you used the coral element. Makes it look like an untamed pasture quite well. The black poo is concerning ... Might want to build a vet soon!
March 22, 20222 yr That's what I call a nice flock of sheep! Nice landscaping too. The fence is great.
April 2, 20222 yr I am slowly catching up here - nice build and a fine herd of sheep! I know a guy who would envy you for having soooo many sheep, as they aren't cheap (are they?) And let us not forget the white rabbit!

As said in the text, I was happy when I discovered you can place the sheep diagonally. That makes it more organic than only sheeps in 2 directions.

Didn't really plan it, but while building, I thought, "hey, the sheep could sleep under the wall". On 3/21/2022 at 3:15 PM, evancelt said: Fun build!

Nice use of dark orange for the little building too! Thanks! The idea of Damaborg is wooden (/timber) buildings with colourfull support beams On 3/22/2022 at 6:10 AM, Roadmonkeytj said: Oh I love the split rail fence ...

You can never have enough sheep, but that works for almost every animal/minifig/lego element haha The black poo was a remark of @kabel when seeing my WIP.

But you have to buy them at Bricks & Pieces (or one of those things) at website of LEGO. I even boughth some white rabbits there and blue birds and other cool animals
