Well of Wonders -- BrickFest MOC, CCC compatible

Post by JCool »

So i thought i'd share my MOC that i created for BrickFest last month. It started as a castle wall segment but quickly became a bit more. It's CCC compatible and has two levels that it can lock into other MOCs.

Just to answer a question i'm sure to get... i chose yellow because i'm a fan of the original castle and wanted to build something in that style but with a modern twist or two. No one really uses the yellow these days, so i grabbed all the 1x2 bricks i could find (had to buy a couple extra buckets at the end to finish the towers) and go to work!

This was pretty much built in a day so there are some things that i didn't get to add (i.e. detailed landscape around the wall, etc.)

Let me know what you think :)

Very well built, it has a nice little charm about it. I enjoyed the phrase "Joe Cool" on the back of the castle. :lol:

I took the liberty of viewing some of the other photos, very interesting designs. 8)

I like the classic yellow feel, and I think the "Joe Cool" labeled brick is very clever and funny.
Very good curved wall. I really like that. Overall, I like it and as Old School Fan said, "It has a nice little charm to it."

Cool. It makes it even better that it is CC compatiable.

This really have the feel of classic, largely due to the color, but the design and the minifigs help. I really like the round part on the back. Thanks for sharing it.
