Julandrius Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 A bunch of Stormcloack Soldiers, accompanied by the Dovahkiin and Lydia put up an attack on solitude. To reach the main city they first have to fight their way through the surrounding villages and farms. A frightened farmer stands near the well, hoping he doesn't get killed, while the city's Imperials Soldiers leave for battle. I worked quite a long time on this, and I really hope you enjoy it :D Link to Flickr where you can leave a fave / or just watch the picture larger. Also, thanks to Gaetano for being epic and inventing horses :D Quote
Sirens-of-Titan Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Great stuff! I added your pictures so that people can enjoy them in their full glory. Especially well done on the horse statue! Quote
Alex the Great Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 This is really well done! The border, the statue, and the figs are great. I really wish I had seen the contest earlier than last week... Skyrim and LEGO: perfect combo! Quote
turtleman2020 Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) This is one of the best mocs I've ever seen. I love the border Edited March 18, 2012 by turtleman2020 Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 That brickbuilt horse is amazing! And the big tree is very nice. As for the border/base, how did you manage that circular shape? Quote
Julandrius Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 Thanks everybody :D I'm really glad you all enjoy it. Creating the base wasn't that easy, the main shape is just a "circle" made by 1 x 2 bricks, but creating the inner part of the edges wasn't easy. I used tiles and 1 x 2 plates to cover up AMAP of the edge, but I felt there was too much open space so I created the tubering, which filled up balmost every hole left. I'm rather satisfied with it myself, thanks :D Quote
JackJonespaw Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Wow.... This is amazing! I really love that horse statue. But the curved base? Wonderful! Keep on building! Quote
Apple Pi Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Incredible building! The horse statue é simply amazing, good job! Quote
Palathadric Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 I hate to repeat what others have already said, but wow! That horse statue is awesome! The whole scene is quite good though. Quote
Tanotrooper Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Well Julien, it's pretty much perfect. The border is great, I love the way you made a distinction between the city/village and the rest. (And the inner ring using 1*1 rounds.) Nice work on the river and building aswell (like the hinges on the door). I see you've used the car door technique aswell. If this doesn't win you that contest, I don't know what will! One thing about the horse: I suppose the horse doesn't need any stirrups? If so, I'd replace the 'mouth' with a standard 1*1 brick. To the other EB members: the horse design is several years old by now but I never got around to making cavalry for this subforum. Here's the original thread: TThorse brickbuilt horse Keep up the great work, I hope you'll be bringing this to Wetteren? Cheers Gaetano Tanotrooper Quote
The Blue Brick Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 The horse statue is magnificent. What did you use for the shingles on the roof? Anyways, Great Moc. Quote
de Gothia Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Such a beauty! The rounded base is great and I love the house, horse and the pallisade! Great work!! Quote
Julandrius Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) Wow thanks people! :D So many nice comments, it's amazing. @Tanotrooper, I was actually not planning on it, I kind of promised Belug to bring an Apocalypse Diorama, as that is a theme they basically never saw on events. I'll see, there's no way I can bring this and an apoc dio, but I'll have to choose :( @All other people on here, thank you so much, you made my day, and it has only started like 10 minutes ago :) Now of to school, thanks again. The roof is made out of cardoors btw. Edited March 19, 2012 by Julandrius Quote
nismogrendel Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 This is great, I hope you do more Skyrim themed builds :) Quote
Captain BeerBeard Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 That's awesome! I love the horse statue. Are you going to make more skyrim scene's? Quote
SirSven7 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Being a skyrim fan I am especially fond of this build, the tree is a particular favorite as is the wooden walls. great build Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I'm speechless ...this MOC is beautiful! Also the rounded base is awesome! TOP WORK!!! Quote
Ecclesiastes Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I saw it on flickr and it went immediately to my favorites! The scene is great and that horse: Also the presentation is very nice. Quote
Im a brickmaster. Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Simply incrediable. Now don't beat up on me, but I don't have a clue what Skyrim is, non the less it is a very nice medival MOC. I dig the horse. Ecspicaly the little detials like a wood pile and stream. Quote
Julandrius Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 Thanks a lot everybody! Whoa, I can't believe how much awesome feedback I'm getting from you guys. It's amazing! First things first, Thanks for all the nice comments, but I do want to say I didn't desin the horse, so no credit to me please :) Gaetano / Tanotrooper did an amazing job on the horse :) Second, I really enjoyed building this, it was something completely different then my usual stuff, and I will for sure be making Skyrim-themed stuff again. Not yet though, I'm planning an apocalypse diorama first, which will be seen at the Wetteren event in Belgium. (April 20th only) And another small anouncement: This entry got first place :) Quote
