Here is a new MOC of mine: a remake of the classic Black Falcon Fortress. I spent one long night studying the set pics and making my own version. I even posed the figs in the same places and poses.
C&C welcome!

Thanks a lot!eNiGMa wrote:This was immediately recognizable; you did a good job bringing the Black Falcons Fortress back into "our day" of Lego. It has that simple-yet-pleasing feel of the classic set, and the interior detail we've come to expect more from recent sets.
Perhaps the only thing I would change is the empty space at the outside front corners. Maybe some statues, or something, in place of the tiles?
I took particular notice of the gardening/farming going on in the courtyard. Good addition!
Ah, thanks! I thought it might be tudor, but I wasn't sure. Yeah, I could have made it pretty realistic, but I was restricting myself to building it like a set, where they don't go overboard with details that raise the price.Shadowviking wrote:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_framing
I assume that's what you're trying to emulate with the yellow there. That's what the printed wall panels in a lot of classic castle sets represented.
Sorry for the late reply.Grimmbeast7 wrote:That fortress is well done. I like the courtyard. But it would be cooler if you added Black Falcons. I wish I could make something like this. I have the legos but not the sorting or the time
