mpoh98 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Hello All, Here is my entry into the Middle Earth Lego OIympics over on Mocpages. Barad Dur Bracket: Category: "A shadow lurks in the dark. We cannot get out...they are coming." I am facing the very talented opponent Josh Walter, and his amazing entry. Man, I have to stop with these last minute entries, they are robbing me of all my sleep. :P So this was built in around 3 hours, I did not get as much detail as I wanted, but I am alright with it. So this is a creation from both my imagination and from the movie. The lines in the floor, and some of the minifigs were all from my imagination, but the rest I tried to stay true to the movie. Enjoy! Artistic Photo, no photoshop! Soli Deo Gloria! ~Matthew~ Quote

MKJoshA Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Simple repetition works really well for this build! Quote

Hammerhand Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I like it, you've captured the chaotic/battle-strewn floor look really well. Quote
Niku Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Looks fantastic with the last picture, the floor and columns are a sight to see. They have taken the bridge and the second hall. We have barred the gates but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes, drums... drums in the deep. We cannot get out. A shadow lurks in the dark. We can not get out... they are coming. Quote

SheepEater Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Beautiful. Love the debris on the perfect tile floor. Added to LOTR index Quote

Trunkbass Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 @mpoh98: I think he's referring to the LOTR MOC Index on the forum: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=83122 Quote
Infernum Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Great MOC! I love the floor and wooden doorway! I think the walls would look better if the textures were less repetitive, but might just be me. Nice work! Quote

Never saw that before, sweet! Great MOC! I love the floor and wooden doorway! I think the walls would look better if the textures were less repetitive, but might just be me. Nice work! Thanks Infernum! Yeah, well the walls seemed to be textured in the movie, but I guess I did go a little overboard with the profile bricks. :P Edited January 26, 2014 by mpoh98 Quote
