CCCXV - A Short Rest

Post by TheLordOfBricks »

Hello! This is my third of 19 posts I will be doing, where I will be building my way through the Hobbit story, one chapter per post, I will do this over the course of the year...

This is also my second CCCXV entry! It will be in the fantasy fortress category!

So, about the build. This build is actually a redo of this chapter, as I wasn't content with my previous attempt being up to the quality of the rest of the builds. So, this build's size is 46 x 26, and I would estimate I used around 2000 pieces. It was a lot of fun to build, so I hope you enjoy! :D

Figless to show the floor pattern:

So, I like this build, and it was really interesting to create, because I didn't use a single hinge anywhere in this build! :D Yeah, all of these round curves, and not a single hinge... :D So, that wasn't as much a challenge in the main rounded section of the build, but surprisingly, it was tough not to use something in the elvish rounded architecture at the back... :) Also, shoutout to Toltomeja's round path design, and Isaac and John Snyder's bench design that the dwarves are sitting on... :D

C&C Appreciated!

I hope you enjoyed!

To God be the glory!

Very unique, the circular base with the rocks wrapped around it looks awesome :wink: .

Insane layout! The circular wall/patio are incredibly well built, and the landscape fits around it perfectly.
Easily my favorite build ever from you :D

Wow... This is so good! The circular base/floor is so amazing, and the rockwork is integrated perfectly as well. Outstanding work!
