City of Annin Bruce 2 II 10 Michal Herbolt, also known as gearcs, is an AFOL from Stary Plzenec in the Czech republic. His first castle set was 6086, so the Black Knights have always been one of his favorite Castle factions, along with the Forestmen. Even though he's been a LEGO fan since he was six, it is really in the last three years that he's been creating MOCs in earnest. His most recent, and perhaps his most ambitious, is the City of Annin. In his backstory, this city was a center of trade that sits on the border between three different empires. Mercenaries have been hired to kidnap one of the leading citizens, in a scheme to sow discord between the three empires. Only one brave guard can thwart the plot. While the city is fictional, the style is based on the gothic architecture of central Europe, and the main gate is inspired by the gate on the Charles Bridge in Prague. On a more personal note, the city is named after Michal's grandmother Anna, who recently passed away. This April Michal will be bringing this MOC to the Roztoky 2010 display in Prague. In addition to Classic-Castle, Michal is a member of the Czech LEGO groups Kostky and Brickdome. All of his MOCs can be found in his Brickshelf gallery.

Orc Chariot Bruce 27 I 10 Most Classic-Castle members will probably recognize Qworg for his Pegasus' Fortress entry for CCCVII. The man behind the MOC is Michał Świetlik, an AFOL from Bydgoszcz, Poland. His next project is a hippodrome, where various factions will race. He's already posted chariots for human and orc groups, including a great brick-built horse design for the humans and some sort of monster for the orcs. Keep an eye out for his future factions and the completion of this project on Flickr, MOCpages or one of his two Brickshelf accounts.

Tiger's Tales Bruce 15 I 10 Tiger0207, aka Tigerggyy, is known for his dynamic posing, beautiful photography and striking presentation. He's been a LEGO fan for well over 20 years, but in 2004 he started making LEGO illustrated comics to tell stories. Since he comes from Taiwan, his tales are strongly influenced by Chinese themes. Journey to the West is a classic Chinese novel from the 16th century, based on the legend of a monk's journey to India. Spirit War finds inspiration in the Buddhist cosmology. He's recently gotten help from BrickTW in translating part of his Last War into English. This looks into the history of the Manchu dynasty, but he's also bringing in more Western elements as well. He hopes to continue on and tralnslate more of his stories. Tiger0207 has three different LEGO blogs. LEGO Martial Arts Heroes focuses on his LEGO storytelling. Tiger's Style is about building and customizing. LEGO in Tiger's Mind at Night brings in more modern subjects and cultural references. He is a member of the Taiwan LEGO Users Group and Minifigs.net. All of Tiger's creations are posted to his Brickshelf gallery.
