LCC - Garheim - FB - Feasting Hall of Greng

Post by AK_Brickster »

In the fishing village of Greng, the local baron is doing his part to host a feast as requested by the King of Roawia. Unfortunately, bad weather kept the supplies from reaching Greng until after the rest of the land had celebrated, but the local knights are enjoying themselves all the same.

Built for the LCC GC1, but finished too late to submit. This MOC will also be displayed in the Bellevue, WA Lego store for the next 4-6 weeks, starting Tuesday, so please be sure to come down and check it out!

Comments and Critiques welcome.

You might notice that a few of them wrap around more fully than the standard Lego cape, giving the figs a more "bundled up" look. These are his "overcapes" and "midcape" designs)

Nice details on this one AK_Brickster. I really liked the stain-glassed windows. Great job. :D

Very good build, but what is Loreos doing in the cold North?

This is a great build! I love all the little details! Like the little diamonds on the cut off section of wall! Unnecessary but really nice!

Beautiful build, Ak. The stained glass is great, and I like the edge of the lake on one corner of the build. The smaller building out back is lovely too. Great job!
You would rather be building right now.

Great build AK! :D Excellent stained glass windows!
Wonderful details all around! The kid with the snowball made me smile. ;)

{Edit.} Looking closer on Flickr I spotted a minifig who looked very familiar...

Mark - Yeah, he was built in your likeness. ;)

Since I missed the GC deadline, I built this MOC with a focus on presenting it to the public, so I put a "King" in there and didn't put my own fig in the MOC (I don't want him to be unavailable for 6 weeks!).

Thanks for the comments, everyone!

Oh Yeah! This is great. I love the little details like the candles and the Minotaur head. You captured a great Garheim feel!

You must really have good talent to have your creation viewed at a Lego store! I love the moc. Nice creation! :D
You've got to ask yourself one question,"Do I feel lucky?" Well do ya, punk?

I wouldn't say that I'm a "great talent" by any means, but thank you. :)

I wasn't hand-picked to do the display, they just needed someone from my LUG to do it, and I volunteered. Hopefully what I've built is good enough to be a good representation of what my LUG is capable of building. I've gotten good feedback, but I'll admit I'm a bit nervous about actually bringing it in tomorrow. I hope they like it! :oops:

I wouldn't worry about them liking it, at least not after it was blogged on TBB, congratulations :D
Excellent work on the interior and snow.
