Ive been so happy, and learned a lot from them.

I would be afraid that my English is roughly.
I hope you could enjoy my dragon's creations in the future.
Thanks again.


Welcome to Classic-Castle, Izzo! I'm a big fan of your work and its great to be able to talk to you. Don't worry about your English, it is fine. Its better than some native English speakers out there. :) I can't wait to see the rest of this series!

Take care,
Josh

Hi Izzo,

I'm glad you joined our forums. As you probably know, I've been a big fan of your work. I'm also happy to see more connections between the English speaking LEGO fans and the Japanese LEGO fans. There are many builders in your country that I truly admire.

Are these dragon scenes going to be entries in the Odaiba contest? I think you're guaranteed to win with these.

BTW, for those who have not checked it out, Izzo's blog has some work-in-progress pics of these scenes.

I would be so glad to see kind words, and give me a hearty welcome.

Bruce,

Great work again Izzo, the perspective is awsome. The smaller dragons are very cool, not to mention the large one!

I like the micro scale landscape below too, just to emphasize the perspective shots. Keep 'em coming.

This new one is amazing. The dragon looks a bit like that one from Spirited Away (which I haven't watched), but it's very creative anyway. I especially like the way the dragon can stand on its wings. The head is beautifully sculpted.

The micro dragons and the light blue river are just wonderful. They really look like miniature versions of the main model.

I'm liking this series more and more as it progresses! Keep up the awesome work, Izzo!

OooOOooo... Although it seems more like a sea serpent than a dragon to me, it's still very nice. Very nice. I love the fig too; and the boat and splashing water are quite well done.

Edit: I forgot to mention, the mixing of solid blue and trans blue in the water is also great.

Looking good, as always. I like the overturning boat and the whiskers on the sea serpent.

I'm not sure if I replied to this thread yet so I'll just comment on thi sone. Great as usual, the tecture is smoother and more simple, but then it is a sea serpant. The scene itself is amazing, the waves and explosion of water, as well as the flipping boat, it's awesome!

All of these creations have been astonishing! Izzo, you have the gift! I love how you integrate such a dramatic atmosphere into your work. I'll be keeping a close eye on your brickshelf. :wink:
