You can use a make-up brush for dusting. They work great to get around studs. Just make sure it has never been used for it's evil, intended purpose :wink: . For small amounts of dusting or a trouble spot you could also use canned air. That's what I do anyway. EDIT- How the Megablocks did THAT happen...

I'm still not sure if this is the correct protocol, but I'd like to say that Lcuan82 is a great buyer. I'd certainly deal with him again. :)

These walls look rather imposing when set-up together and the modularity seems to work really well, however I think they suffer a bit from big-grey-wall syndrome. I'd have to concur. It's very simple and elegant in design. Maybe too simple and elegant? I really like the use of the slopes, especiall...

I really like the techique for the rounded tower walls, very nice. I also like how John laid the castle atop bricks instead of abusing thousands of blue tiles. The fig being chased by the shark is absolutely hilarious. Clever way to make the blood trail. That's a fantastic castle. I'd love to see mo...

Yeah! I like this watch tower. Makes me think of the Dylan song. Anyway I'm just regurgitating everyone else's compliments. Great horn, love the plates attached at diagonals, simple, looks accurate, I dig the roof. I also like that the ladder is just the right height to reach the tower floor. I'm lo...

Nice to see you got your account all set up there Dylan. Glad you could make it over. These people are way cool. Less lame-o's like we get at FBTB. C-C members know proper grammar and spelling and lots of the members don't even speak English as a first language! How's about that? You might want to p...

Wow! Thanks for all the kind praise and criticism. I just built this a little bit a night over a a few nights for fun and I wound up liking how it looked even though it's just a vague glimmer of what I really want to construct (with interiors of course) :P . We'll see about getting the parts. Imma d...

Gah!

I placed an order today! But when are there going to be some more armor sets (with helm, chestplate, & shield)? And are more space weapons coming? I'm looking forward to the medieval sets with glee. I can't wait to arm my vikings with decent weapons. :D

My first castle! Well, sort of. Urm... at least I tried.

This is my first attempt at a model of my own. I hate the acronym MOC so I avoid using it, but I'm sure that I'll eventually cave in and start slinging truncated phrases with the best of 'em. This is my first stab at a viking fort/tower. It's a sketch, if you will. I intend to make a much larger ver...

Vikings: Well I just love this line. I don't really care for the critters (though the Midgard Serpent is the best of the bunch). The ship and boat are great, but I'd steal away with a copy of the fortress. The official set lacks a little panache (although the big catapult works really well). But I ...

Well I own one of these puppies. As I have said before, I came out of my dark ages with Star Wars LEGO. I was hooked pretty quick and started to move on to other lines. Castle in the late 80's was my favorite. So of course I wanted to give the new castle lines a shot. I got several sets and was only...

Ben
So I should just wait out the clearances and in a few months be able to trade or sell it for roughly the value I was looking for?
