Japanese Tea House

Post by DARKspawn »

Hi all =)

Been away too long again. Life just seems to get more and more complicated recently... But I always have time for the brick. Allow me to share with you my latest creation, a diorama depicting a classic ninja showdown at a Japanese Tea House.

Nice work. I like the curved roofs on the buildings and the dark blue water in the stream.

What piece do you use for that waterfall? It's quite beautiful...

-Edit- Ah, yes, I see. From some of the pictures it looks like the back of a boat, or something. Still, exquisite!

Great to have you back Aaron! This is definitely a quality MOC though the name is a little interesting. Never would have though of a "tea house" as castle except in time itself. :) However great work!!!

Good to see you again!
The landscaping is really nice, that's a good use of those dark blue for the waterfall. The 'curved wall' used as roof looks great. I think that the gras hanging over the rock-edge looks a bit square, but thats just a detail.

Absolutely beautiful MOC (sorry the late reply). I think the roof on the house is the cleverest and best part.

I like the roof of the little house. Never seen the ''round tower '' technic use this way. Excellent job.

Great roofs. The depth of the MOC looks great. There is something going on all over. Nice work.

Woah, this is just...incredible. :o It's so detailed! I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into this. It would take me an hour to even comprehend all the action going on. I shall have to try that roof technique myself. I have always liked Japanese MOCs, but this is one of the best. :D Keep up the good building.

not really a lego ninja fan (the real ones were awesome) but the detail is good at bare minimum and i like the hidden dudes

Very nice MOC. I loved the ninja's myself, but Lego stopped production before I could get more than 1. I really like the water (a spring maybe?) coming from the hill.

I just front paged you on TLF.com, DS. This MOC is fantastic, and it deserves to be named MOC of the Week. :)
