Victorian manor by Shaun Sullivan
Hi all,
Shaun Sullivan has posted this amazing victorian manor to Brickshelf.
According to a note in his gallery (still looking for a Lugnet post or game write-up), this was first used for a horror (Lovecraft) themed Brikwars game this past weekend, though obviously he's been working on this for quite a while (he hinted about in in August).
While this is not a castle-themed creation, there are amazing architectural details throughout, and the general area of horror, IMO, is castle-friendly.
Be sure to check out: the amazing 2-thick curved wall, with curved bookcases to match, fireplace and chairs, canopied bed, perching parrots, fireplace variant, monstrous skeletons, extremely rare, never sold, element (how'd he get this?), rolling ladder, spooky tree (by Dave Eaton) and fence, and an amazing number of details throughout (plus the general studless nature of the floors and the modular room construction themselves amazing).
It looks like Shaun is still planning on uploading a ton of detail pictures, with all of those empty folders for different rooms.
Pictures from the game in progress are in another folder.

WOW.
Apart from its size, the exterior is not that amazing. (But the landscaping, fencing, and spooky tree are awesome) But the interior details - now THAT is stunning. I've only looked at a few of the pics, and I really like the way Shaun kept certain details constant - i.e. the curtains.
WOW.

Wow, that rocks!
The thing that caught my eye was this picture:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=959783
Is that LEGO? If so, why?
Lets all begin hmming...
Hmmm....

That's an element that was never produced. It showed up at a LUG meeting a year ago, presented by a LEGO employee who said it was a prototype. Here:

Note in that same pic there is a clear fig, a trans-blue scimitar, and a clear chain. There was much speculation, but no official information, about what this might be for. I'm hoping it will show up in a future set, but am not holding my breath.

There is also clear shoulder pad armor like the aliens and Ogel. Pretty cool, but I'm not holding my breath either.Bruce N H wrote: Note in that same pic there is a clear fig, a trans-blue scimitar, and a clear chain.
