Re: The Worst King

Does the impostor King count, that came in the set 9349 Fairytale and Historic Minifigures. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=cas482 He came with a scepter, cape and crown. He wears a tunic instead of armour and doesn't even have a beard! Its not historically accurate if the king doesn't...

Re: Castle and Tolkien sets for 2013

I'm quite liking the sets. The castle is the only set I'm not completely happy with why has it got a Crown above the gate and Lions on the flags? They could have been better but I really like the figure designs. The dragons knights barding and oval shield are very nice looking from what I can see. I...

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

Although I'm not related to any royalty. One of my distant relations was Judge John Bradshaw who was guilty of Regicide. We sent Charles the 1st to be executed. :D John was made Lord president of the parliamentary commission to try the king. Not exactly the most sought after jobs lol After John died...

The Yellowship of the Ring

I don't know if you would strictly call this a MOC. But it's my current project. Basically I wasn't happy with the fleshie faces on the Lord Of the Rings figures. They didn't fit in with any of my castle sets. So I have been recreating the characters in their closest approximate yellow skinned count...

Re: Rumorville.... The return of the Castle theme?

Well I think we can say that Lego Castle is returning next year. Its no longer a rumour if the names product numbers and preliminary pictures have been leaked. But I'd much rather wait for the official product pictures from Lego before I make any judgement on the sets. I'm happy to see castle return...

Re: Creating Fabric Fold texture with Sculpey

Its a very nice cloth effect I can sculpt .. But I've never tried to make capes for a mold.... but I'd be interested to see how that cape looks from the other side. Or if you were wanting to make a one off cloth effect using sculpey try running it through a pasta machine at the thinnest setting. Ver...

Re: Legends of Chima - Pics

The Legend of Chima sets are getting a castle. 70011-1: Eagle's Castle.

There are no pictures of this set yet but going by the Chima cartoon teaser there is a pretty nice looking fortress that the Lions live in.

Re: Rumorville.... The return of the Castle theme?

if these rumours turn out to be true
The set name 70403 Dragon Mountain could mean that we finally see a castle for the Dragon faction from the Kingdoms line. I always picture the Dragons in a mountain top hideout instead of a formal castle.

Re: CC Set Review: 6011 Black Knight's Treasure

It's a great little set, very simply made but works to great effect. The only thing that this set is missing is .. treasure! Why is the Falcon soldier transporting an empty chest? Have the contents been stolen? Or has he stolen an empty chest? It could have done with a few little yellow parts inside...

Re: Rumorville.... The return of the Castle theme?

According to other rumours on Eurobricks the Castle theme will include a modular castle or additions to a modular castle. It might just be a re-release of the Kingdoms or Crownies castle. It has also been said that it will be knights vs knights with no fantasy characters involved. There's enough fan...
