Shannara LEGO

Post by jamitjames »

Hey all,

I've started to make some Shannara LEGO:

Gallery

I've only made one thing but I hope to add a Skull Bearer later today, here's the one vignette I've made:

"-Hold forth the sword-
He did so without question, thrusting it before him like a talisman. Galaphile's hand reached out, and his fingers brushed the Elite Druin. Instantly, the emblem flared with wite light."

Nice. I figure the guy in black is Galaphile, who is the other guy? Its been a while since I read First King, so I don't remember it much.

I'd like to see the Skull Bearer, as I've been trying to think how to do one for a while now.

Here's my Shanarra stuff:

The other guy is Breman. You can't see his face but it is Obi-Wan's from IV.

You should read The First King again. I've only read four of the Shannara books (The Sword, The Elfstones, The Wishsong, and The First King) but so far it has been the second best.

Well as I said before I've only read 4 books so I can't comment on some of your work but I can talk about some. With your Paranor were you only trying to build part of it? The gate maybe? And all your male minifigs seem very happy. In this picture 3/4 of the men are smiling right after they have lost their freinds! The inn is your best build (even though it has lots of color).

I still need to do a decal for the robes and torso.

Edit: Would any one be willing to maybe help me make one of the Shannara storys into brick? Please PM me if you would.

Not sure about the wing construction, but beyond that pretty cool. I bet the Jawa heads would make nice faces for them too... especially for a purist like me.

I love Shannara! One of the best series I've ever read. It is almost a copy of LOTR. That skull bearer looks good, but not how I imagined them. I thought of them as smaller versions of the dragons that the Nazguel ride.

This is my 100th post!!! :D
