DNL Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 This is my castle siege entry for the Colossal castle contest VI. "The city of Elenaï is under siege. the defenders try to destroy the enemy's trebuchet. While their jester destracts the attackers, a group of defenders leaves the city and tries to burn the trebuchet and kill it's operators." Brickshelf Flickr Quote
I Scream Clone Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 At first look I wasn't all that impressed with the overall appeal of this moc (from the small pic) On closer inspection it is filled with all the wonderful details I come to expect from you DNL! Sheer Brilliance that rewards many looks! The Trebuchet is great, perhaps the wooden roof could look more damaged from the bombardment though. All the greebling is really nice on the tower and the sloping effect at the base of the wall is nice too. Could you tell me what is the deal with the white and dark red plating deep in the concrete only in one area? Is it primitive foundations? Good luck with the contest. Quote
Jipay Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 I second the first impression : not that impressive at first, but then excellent when you look closer. I guess this is the kind of MOC that looks better in real life ! Nice details, but what is that jester doing up there ? Quote
Asuka Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 This is a very inspiring and detailed work with a beautiful facade and an interesting mix of different structures! The trebuchet looks also very fine, the foliage looks great and the whole scenery is very lively and well done. But with so much going on in these pics I really would like to be able to see especially the general view pics a lot bigger, and some additional detail shots would also help to enjoy your fine work more adequate... I hope that you´ll give us some more pics of that really cool MOC. Quote
Guss Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 very cool entry! very detailled! really DNL you deserve your "moc expert " tag^^ that's wonderful! I love the jester detail on the top of the castle, that's hilarous^^ Quote
BlueBard Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Wonderful entry! I'm not a Lego Castle Fan but I must say lovely trebuchet! Quote
hewkii9 Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Amazingly detailed! I love the little spike wall and the dwarven sappers! Quote
SWMAN Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 That's a really nice MOC. If you could add some pics of the back of the Castle, that would be great. Quote
NewRight Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Fabulous work! So many great details. I would love to see this with even new additions after CCCVI of even before. Quote
