New Takeshi Itou on Brickshelf

[Dragon Master]

Hello!

These are some great mocs! I love how he puts the foundation, to give us a lovely cross section! The wizard's lab is indeed very nice, but I like the window techniques he used in the blacksmith shop.

Thanks for sharing,

DM

P.S. Takeshi Itou is one of the very few that can pull off using premolded pieces!

Actually, I once wrote Mr. Itou an email to volunteer to translate his website into English (or at least parts of it), but maybe he never received it or something as I never got a reply from him. But from what I can understand from his website (and other Japanese Lego websites where he was mentioned), his creations are heavily inspired by Japanese video games, which perhaps explains why the first time I saw his works I was immediately reminded of the battle landscapes in video games like Ogre battle and Final Fantasy Tactics. It's really a shame that we can't get him to participate in the C-C forum though, as he probably doesn't speak English.

No doubt, his stuff is highly advanced. I would be very curious to know what he thinks about the new greys
