That is totally hardcore. I love the positioning of the figures especially.

Very good. I really like it. Particularly the rockface with the platforms coming out of them. I also like the sounds. Very good.

What a beauty, it is impressive!

I love it! And I finally blogged it. Been meaning to do that ever since you posted this. :oops:

Wow, that is one great MOC !

I love the smooth surfaces, the minifig action and the overall look of the scene.
The ship is awesome too, great to see those large boat parts implemented in a MOC like this. Great job !

Ooh! I like! Heh heh stupid Vikings. Don't they know that it is foolish to attack Dwarves? I mean, Dwarves kick butt even when they're defeated.

Class A work! It's not often that MOCs this large have this level of detailing and polishing. For once, I'm not even going to attempt to name all the great features here. Outstanding job.

Fantastic job! I like the animated scenes too.

I just watched Pirates of the Caribbean and it is really amusing seeing yours after that (although pirates and vikings aren't too similar).

How bout having the ship pulled into the ocean depths after the kracken's done tossing the guys? :lol:

Beautiful! I love every inch of it, especially the multiple levels. Great work!

This is a very nice piece of Lego work. I also like the addition of the font (with Photoshop effect) you used. All this put together makes for a very cool looking mage. The ship is great, and the sea monster is very impressive.

I have had a look at your website, and your Lego work is extremely good. I do love how there is a story to all your images and that you use Typography with your digital images. Absolutely Great.

Thanks everyone for your warm welcome to the classic-castle forum.

I must say that I was a little surprised to be given front-page coverage! Woot! Apparently Bruce thought I was ready for the prime-time.

This past Saturday, I did manage to take the Kraken and the Viking Ship to the Vancouver Lego Club meeting and most agreed that the mocs look even better in person ;-)

I would like to start a new diorama and many of you have emailed me suggestions... but I don't think I'm quite ready to demolish this one quite yet.

Thank you all for your suggestions and praise. It was a fun build and I look forward to conversing with more of you in the future as time permits.

Cheers! ~ Paul.

Excellent moc, its very unique.
The animated pictures were a great idea, I'd like to try that some time myself.
