Re: Heroica, anyone?

Heroica! I totally forgot about this thread. I had the pleasure of playing this with a couple of awesome CC-er friends of mine. We had a seriously good time and a great giggle-fest while doing it. I don't know a ton about roleplaying games, but apparently this is limited. But it is a kids game, so ...

Re: GoH: Attack of the Trolls

This is lovely. The roof & snow are especially wonderful. The quoins are nice too.

Re: CCCX Curved Staircase - Architectural Detail

Nice. The floor could use some polish but the walls and curvature are lovely.

12th century horse hitching

This isn't really a completed MOC although I have since finished the cart itself, but I thought people might be interested in it anyway. I know little of horsery (I'm certainly no horserer) but I needed a large cart for a scene and I was sick of just sticking a couple of horses on a hinged beam. I s...

Re: BrickCon Castle Planning 2012

We should do a historical layout. No fantasy allowed and strict research required.

Re: Building a Ballista...

(please ignore my wife commiserating with the dog in the background about the unfairness of being kenneled for the night, lol) Dude, you kenneled your wife? That's a bit much innit? :P Just kidding. Awesome project. I love ballistas. Not always sure they're the most efficient siege weapon, but they...

Re: News: Death of the Classic Horse

Well, I don't have any of the new horses, but, in theory, couldn't you put an old horse head on a new horse to get the best of both worlds? Assuming the horse is put together the same way and has the same type of ring mount for the head, then that should work, yes. (...why? It's been stated there w...

Re: Third Party vs. Clone Brands

Third party vendors are made to be used with LEGO. Clone brands are made to compete with LEGO. That about sums it up.

Re: Discussion: Knight's Kingdoms vs. Ninjago

The "weirdness" is completely intentional and quite thoroughly done in Ninjago. It has a deliberately invoked sense of 90s saturday morning cartoons. It's over the top. KKII was just sort of... odd, but without being so out there. It ended up sort of straddling the line between serious fan...

Re: brick built beast...dire bear and hunting elf

Neat. The bear's head design is fantastic. Digging the combos on the elf too. Nicely done.
