I’m more impressed with each new Castle creation Thomas “Remyth” Wunz posts. “Gryhnt Piro” is certainly no exception:
Here’s Thomas in his own words:
During the glory of the rule of Gyrothyr, the fourteenth king of Veryluai (very-lu-a), many fair things were built. Thought it has rarely been heard of, Gryhnt Piro was a major aspect in […]
It’s rather rare that we feature a LEGO Harry Potter creation, but Garth Danielson helps us end that drought with his great “Gryffindor Fire”:
Garth uses a cool bent wall technique to evoke the tower, with a detailed fireplace and furniture.
According to Wikipedia, the French town of Harfleur changed hands between the English and the French repeatedly between 1415 and 1562, including being pillaged by the Huguenot.
I’m not sure which particular incident Brickshelfer Reejoc is illustrating with this Castle creation, but things don’t look good for the residents of Harfleur:
I didn’t think that Horace Cheng could improve on the wonderful flaptters (from Hayao Miyazaki’s Laputa: Castle in the Sky) we featured here a couple of years ago, but Horace proves me wrong with a “version 2″:
Though I kind of miss the grill, the overall shape is much better, and the chain works rather well […]
Reader ExoBuilder sends word of a great Castle creation called “The Ravine Tavern” by Dragonator:
The half-timber house presents a nice contrast to the stonework, and I love the tree-lined street. Go Crown Knights, go! (Though I think the goblin horde is pretty darn cool.)
Ever since SlyOwl’s demonstration of a technique for straw roofs in his Nassau Port, we see the technique again in Cheddar Gorge. But in addition to the innocent looking scene, there’s some pretty crazy stuff going on inside. Please heed SlyOwl’s warning that vegetarians should look away.
Fedde makes good use of clear elements to illustrate the Skeleton Queen’s displeasure in a vassal:
Check out more pics in Fedde’s Vignette photoset on Flickr.
When the dead rise from their graves to destroy the living, dark magic must be afoot (or it’s the solanum virus, but that’s a different story). Dave Lartigue illustrates one such incident in his “Assault on the Necromancer’s Tower” diorama. Here’s the tower:
The dead rise up!
Villagers fight back!
There’s lots more to see in Dave Lartigue’s […]
Rocko’s latest castle diorama has the majestic dwelling of a wizard and the usual pervert. Oh well, that’s Rocko. We’re your fans no matter what you ravish our eyes with.
Even Trolls care…
Now when was the last time we featured Fabuland here on The Brothers Brick? I can’t remember, but this is a pretty sweet goaty, cave thing by Sir Nadroj.
I posted the winners of this year’s Battles Contest on Classic Castle earlier today. It was a difficult choice but here they are in all their splendor!
1st Place:
Rocko’s Goblin Attack
2nd Place:
Chris Edwards’ Family Reunion
3rd Place:
Adrian Florea’s Stone Golem Attack
Congratulations to these most excellent builders and their award-winning creations!
SlyOwl’s great Battles Contest entry includes some really cool building techniques:
Reader Andrew pointed out the flowers as blood, but that’s not the only cool detail. The cannonball embedded in the wall, the splashing fire, and the different textures of the wall are all great, but I’m sure there’s more all of you out there can […]
Brian McLachlan is the creator of a weekly webcomic called “Princess Planet,” which he recently switched over to LEGO form for several episodes.
I just love the running gags with the shields, which I won’t ruin for you by quoting. Check ‘em out!
More LEGO webcomic goodness:
Reasonably Clever
Adventures of the S-Team
Grunts
(I know there are several more […]
Huw Millington sends word of a Brickish Association event he recently attended, where the centerpiece was a 6x version of 375/6075 Castle — aka “The Yellow Castle” or “What I wanted for Christmas 1978 and why I’m still not speaking to my parents, 30 years later.”
Don’t think that looks that big? Think again:
Check […]
Classic-Castler Jens (Schlimps on Brickshelf) joins the fray at the last minute with a Battles Contest entry inspired by The Lord of the Rings:
The posable, brick-built oliphaunt (so called by Hobbits; called mûmak by men) certainly dominates the scene, but there are many more details to pore over in this great creation.
Chris Edwards has created a unique castle-themed boss battle in which a family of five heroes battle an evil jester unleashed from a magical spell book. While the landscaping is typically excellent, what brings this model to the top of creativity is the jester’s contagious spread of magic, infecting those who come in contact with […]
Klocki continues to introduce the world to wonderful builders we may not have heard about before.
The latest builder I’m learning about is Zggredek, whose siege scene is full of intricate details. Click the picture to check out tons of pictures on Brickshelf.
