Re: Arandin Fortress

Thanks, both of you! The curved wall and beach on the right half were the ideas I started with when I began building. The scope of it grew as it was built. I'm glad you commented on the ornamental banners, Bruce. I admit to being a little giddy when I discovered their utility and I might have purcha...

Arandin Fortress

Here is my recent build for the latest Lands of Roawia GC. More on flickr. Comments and critiques appreciated.

Re: LEGO Classic Castle in decline?

I get the impression there are an awful lot of lurkers here (myself included). I rarely go more than three days without checking in here. Bruce has been doing an incredible job of posting cool stuff that I would otherwise never see and the tutorials here are an invaluable asset to the community. Mer...

Re: New photos

I'm surprised to see this has been up for over a month with no comment. That's a great looking shield. What kind of magics did you use on it?

Re: 41075 The Elves Treetop Hideaway

Thank you for doing this. I felt I should comment so that you knew more people were actually interested. I doubt I will get any of the sets but I am VERY interested in the pieces. I will be spending a good bit at Bricks and Pieces just on the parts from these sets. The comparison pictures of the flo...

Re: Dear LEGO: Less faction-specific minifig parts

Trust me, it happens a lot both ways. CMFs are what make me sad most often but I'm well aware this is a big issue for you guys too. We could pitch it as encouraging extreme modesty. It should be a major taboo to show anything but your head or hands. :lol:

Re: Dear LEGO: Less faction-specific minifig parts

I agree and I would like to add, thank you for keeping the yellow off of the torsos. Flesh sharpie over yellow is sadly not an option for us.

Re: Castle 2016?

Considering the 'Boars' are comprised of one CMF evil knight and two figures with the evil dwarf torso and a Norse shield from the CMF Viking, I wouldn't put much weight on it. I can't bring myself to buy in to the rumors of what is coming next year but something in Castle makes sense. I for one wou...

Re: Your Favorite Castle Set Ever!

1. I have not owned enough to say but... 2. Uruk-Hai army without question. Useful pieces in bley and sand green. The new molds; 4 plus a new horse! (The longsword and spear were really new too if memory serves) The beautiful and versatile printing on the figures, helmets, and shield. That set made ...

Re: My hunting thread

Your other topic that you've linked to doesn't look like it has been updated since I plundered it. If, by some good fortune you do have Elronds again, I believe I would take them off your hands. Either way I'll send you a PM with what I have on your wants list. Maybe we can save each other a trip to...
