De Niro in a fantasy flick? Huh?

Based on the book by Neil Gaiman.

Castle Siege Castle Siege Castle Siege.

Also, thanks for all the clarifications Ben. Looks like it'll be fierce competition!

Hm, so let me see if I have this right: you're supposed to build in the style of the new sets, and the categories are also based on the same new sets? So all the entries are going to be " riffs and variations on a single note ", as it were. I suppose it'll be easier to judge that way, beca...

I'm glad you all appreciate the flower field, because it took over three hours and a lot of cursing to put together. I think it's much better to make a little scenery in order to present MOCs than just sticking it in front of a white background. This particular diorama was inspired by an album cover...

this is what i did instead of entering the classic castle contest.

cotton swabs lol

New news from the home front, homes. In lieu of trying to restart the defunct Golden Shpleem , I started another blog with the ever-controversial Soren . Expect it to be a full 20% snarkier. So the new blog is called Tourist Bot's Diary , even though our eponymous mascot is strangely missing from th...

Thanks for the kind words. If you're going to Brickfest this year, you can totally see it IRL.

http://www.neutronbot.com/model/dirigible_thumb/dirigible1.JPG I decided to finish one of my many half-built MOCs last week, and it actually happened. This ship was based off a Decemberists poster with 17th-century dirigibles on, and so I figured it needed a Decemberists name to go with. PLMKWYT, I...

Yeah, that's Felix "Fabulous Hair" Greco. It seems to be an expansion of his Green Wizard's Tower from about two years ago. I'm surprised he still had it around.

Anyways, i think i'll ask him if i can borrow some white bricks.

So how about Seven Swans?

Nice stickers btw.

So, are we talking about making things that would lend themselves to official theme sets? Does that mean we can't build things with 4 walls?

Or are you saying "let's all build fantasy"? Because I'm up for that.

Just saw this- it reeks of anime. I love it!

Looking quite impressive so far. For the greenhouse, maybe you could experiment with wrapping these Paradisa windows in that thin stiff flex-tubing used as podracer cables and kaadu tails and whatnot. It could look uber-Victorian if you do it right. I'd try it myself if i had those huge window bits....

I suppose fleshtone makes some sense: who else would be so unnaturally pale, but indoors-stayin' book-learnin' mage types? Thanks Lenny for (again) talking up my old mocs and very artfully embarrassing me into building new stuff. Your rocks are brilliant and rich in detail. I'm taking notes. But do ...
