Viceroy Stefan Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Oh how I wish I had the time/space/money/lego to be able to do something like this. This is just so fantastically awesome! Yes most people could build wounderful creations but hello reality check thats not the case so get over it and mayday artist you should have your creation turned into a lego set like marshall_banana happy building Hazza
Vindicare Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) Yes most people could build wounderful creations but hello reality check thats not the case so get over it and mayday artist you should have your creation turned into a lego set like marshall_banana happy building Hazza Whoa, ease up there grumpy. I assume you're talking about mayday recent building there. Because there's no way LEGO would make his creation a set, just too big. Anyone could do what he's doing. It's not like he got all these pieces over night. He's been working on this project for a looooooong time now. Edited February 11, 2012 by Legocrazy81

Viceroy Stefan Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I love that barn! Great work! Yes i agree that the barn is omg.
maydayartist Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 And now it is integrated on chapter 3 But I have to hurry up so I give you the pictures without many words. Enjoy! Now chapter 4 will get his extension. see you later Phil
Khorne Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 That's wonderful. A look at some of the steps would be excellent too! I second this. Your MOCs are splendid, but a look behind the scenes would be nice. I for one, really wish to see how you put that roof together. How does it stay on? Is it connected or is it just "sitting" there?
Palathadric Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Very, very, very, very nice building. Could we see another shot sometime soon of the entire landscape? Just to see how the house fits in, etc.
Mr Copperhead Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I just got back into Lego after a 20 year break, primarily because of MOCs like this! Wonderful work, very inspiring and thanks for sharing it here!
MetroiD Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I'm Offended okay and fyi ive been watching this creation and i have just chose to join this site bof I'm offensive and I find this awesome. Or vice versa? Welcome to Eurobricks Hazza - with such amazing creations, it's a good place to stick around, right? How about you introduce yourself, so that we'd have an opportunity to get to know you better? As to the reality check - not sure if it's really necessary? Not everyone can have all the time/money/space they need in order to work on great MOCs, but there's lots of us who've found EB to be an incredible source of inspiration and have actually decided to take up big projects after seeing works such as this one here... @maydayartist - You got started with this project just as I had completely realized that I was once again in a MOCcing-impossible-Dark-Ages kind of period. And seeing/ following this one has really made these "ages" quite a bit lighter for me. You rock mate... thank you
Legomaster34 Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 This is simply stunning! You've inspired me to do something like this but with Harry Potter someday, although I doubt it could ever be this good! Keep up the astounding work!
SirSven7 Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 I have been watching this over a long period of time and I must say it is one of the most impressive builds ever, well done for the creativity and well done for sticking at it. Cheers
Mencot Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 Whoa this is amazing, I went through all the post, you have been making this for a Looong time. And it is great. :thumbup:
maydayartist Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 First step of my extensions on chapter 4 is the update on the weeping willow. My current amount of sea grass plants is twice of the first build. So here are the old and the new (based on the idea from one of our LUG members, monteur!) version of the willow A new problem will be the place. The willow have to move for the next build phase. It is done to 70% and with a little bit luck ready for a first picture this night. Phil
Legonardo Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Have been watching this since the beginning but only joined up a while ago. this is AWESOME! one of my favorite layouts Ive ever seen! It is done to 70% and with a little bit luck ready for a first picture this night. I'm now going to be staring at this topic until you upload it
Smack Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Well I have been stalking this topic LD as have many others I could only assume Pure inspiration IMHO. I will also continue watching in anticipation for the finished product. Please continue the updates for all us keeping track.
maydayartist Posted February 23, 2012 Author Posted February 23, 2012 I'm now going to be staring at this topic until you upload it Please continue the updates for all us keeping track. Ok ok, but first one part of it. Guess what it is. It's not very difficult, isn't it? Last changes and the base are in progress now. until then Phil
maydayartist Posted February 23, 2012 Author Posted February 23, 2012 Might that be a part of a mill, perhaps? Indeed But after the shot and ready for reattach I cahnge them too and now it's fine.
maydayartist Posted February 23, 2012 Author Posted February 23, 2012 Allright, it's done. Chapter 4 will get a windmill, ok that is what we just now. Someone will say that's not really logical near a rock and yeah in general it is but this is a special higher place and the rock nearby is the only one in this area Unfortunately the windmill on my mind was never seen in medieval life. The beauty "smock mill". Her first date was about the 16th century. Ok, I have to search deeper, to find the right for this time and it is the "post mill". Not as much as beauty like the other one but still a nice structure to create. At this moment I have seen that TLG has done a good job with their own post mill in the mill village raid. Nice to now is the fact that they started in france about the 13th century but build in abundance in germany. So the second name for this mill is german mill. The next question was the parts to do the hull. Log bricks are too easy and not exactly what you can see on original pictures. So I have taken tiles. Grey would be authentic but in Lego they look not wooden. The post (in german 'Bock') was the last missing part and my first version was really nice but too big and a little bit uncommon in design. The second one is not as big as the first and same like hundreds of photos online. By the way; my version based a little bit of this original post mill "Bockwindmühle Oppenwehe" located in north rhine westfalia - germany And here it is (as single version with only a normal baseplate). Now I have to create a good place to put it on. Phil

rriggs Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 That looks pretty awesome, as does the whole set up, but do you know why it (yours and the real one) is sort of lifted off the ground on stilts? So it can rotate and turn the sails into the wind. Another awesome creation! Cheers Rog
