Posted March 25, 201410 yr It's been a while since I've build something, But slowly I'm coming out of the dark ages again. Before starting a big build I thought I'd try a few small ones. seeing as I'm a classic castle fan and love building castle moc's and creations I thought I try an add on to the 6041 and 6040 sets. So here is my first creation again in a while. A small market Bakery. Set 6040 with the Bakery add-on Watch out baker! There a thief behind you, and he's after your delicious bread! as the back few, as you can see this has the same style as the 6041 armory shop. Thanks for looking :D Edit: 31 march 2014 And the new Farmers House Edited March 31, 201410 yr by kevin1990
March 25, 201410 yr Though I would more call it a MOD of 6041 Armor Shop, I think it's a great idea. It would fit perfectly to a classic castle town square or street. Never thought of that myself, but I might use the idea when I once will rebuild my castle collection. I certaily hope, we will see more classic castle styled buildings from your side, kevin1990.
March 26, 201410 yr Lovely! I'm in the middle of mocing classic Castle too - kind of forced moc'ing because I can't find all the pieces for my old sets and my kids want to play with them. I used the robber face for a Wolfpack guy too. It's perfect for a slight reboot of them, as are some of the new crook faces that come in the City and Forest Police sets. I hope we'll see more of your work soon!
March 27, 201410 yr This is the era of Castle that I love the most. Don't get me wrong, I love the style of modern sets, especially 10193, but the simplicity of 6080 King's Castle (and all of the smaller sets that you could add to it) is awesome. DSC00338 by Rick Loves Lego, on Flickr
March 28, 201410 yr It's nice and true to the built of Classic Castle! Love it, and it does bring back some childhood memories.
March 28, 201410 yr Watch out baker! There a thief behind you, and he's after your delicious bread! as the back few, as you can see this has the same style as the 6041 armory shop. Thanks for looking :D Watch out thief! The tree is turning on you! Great build.
March 28, 201410 yr Great build. I'm receiving a second copy of black knight's stronghold soon which I will try to do some alt builds with. Edited March 28, 201410 yr by surixurient
March 29, 201410 yr Great build. I'm receiving a second copy of black knight's stronghold soon which I will try to do some alt builds with. Nice. I've just received my second copy of it as well, along with 3 6054...now i'm looking forward some more 6059! The plan is to build a wall around the 6086.
March 30, 201410 yr I stuck my 6059 onto the back of 6085 (monarch's castle), it looks great as the back gate.
March 30, 201410 yr Lovely! It's completely believable as a set that TLG could have released in the '80s!
March 31, 201410 yr Author Thanks guys! for the great replies! Also I made a new add on. A small Farmers house. I'm not se pleased about it, but I thought I's share it anyway. Thanks for looking :D Edited March 31, 201410 yr by kevin1990
March 31, 201410 yr All those sets (MOCs, I know!) look nice. I wish we had more add-on sets like these.
April 1, 201410 yr Kevin, I love seeing your classic castle MOCs. It really makes me long for such modular sets to be released today. I'd love for you to keep at it and eventually show off a whole fortified town/castle done in this style.
April 1, 201410 yr This is great work! Anybody who likes this stuff should check out the classic MOCs by The Cook. It's great inspiration.
April 2, 201410 yr thanks for the suggestion SirBlake! My new lego goal is to build all of the cook's retro mocs, plus any others that people share, like this one. Lets follow the cooks example and put [retro moc] in the title of these so we can search on that term to find all of the threads.
April 2, 201410 yr Ooooh, white timbering! Where'd you get those? <repeat to self> thou shalt not covet another mans bricks!</end repeat> As the others have said recreating the TLG style is my thing. The farmers house is nice and simple, reminds me of one of the builds from the Lego ideas book, or maybe one of the protoype photo's. The protoype sets are here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=52994&hl=%20europa%20%20theme&st=0
April 10, 201410 yr This is the era of Castle that I love the most.

It is not only because the sets of classic castle are from my childhood, but they were easy simple and very playable. I dont like the raised baseplate castle. About the mocs: they are great addons!
