Trebuchet Attack

This is the first set in what will be my series of custom modular Castle sets. It is similar in size and part count to what an official set would be. The tower/wall can hinge in two spots, has a secret door hidden in the wall and a full interior in the tower. The trebuchet actually works and is a lo...

Valdrfell Stables

A free build for Guilds of Historica. This was my first try using tilted walls (for the foundation of the tower), and I think they worked pretty well. This was also my first time building a log cabin using SNOT 1x1 round bricks. All three buildings have a full interior and all the doors/trapdoor fun...

Mitgardian Wolf Stable

A free build for Guilds of Historica. This was a fun quick build that let me try building some more viking-esque buildings, and try a pine tree design that I haven't used before (credit for which goes to Blake Baer). The stables has a full interior and all the doors work. Great wolves are common in ...

Re: Thenwell Castle

@greanie2011: Thank you, I could have used slopes for the roof, or tiles like I did with the minifig baseplates :-)

@The-Daryl: Thanks! It was fun being able to use dark green so heavily :-)

Thenwell Castle

Built for Global Challenge VI in the Lands of Classic Castle. This is for the "Unrestricted" Category. My main goals for this build were: to experiment with using dark green 1x1 bricks for the landscape, using bley 1x2 grill bricks for texturing the castle walls, and to create a 'real' cas...

Built for Challenge I in Guilds of Historica and the Secret Hideout Category of the Colossal Castle Contest. The fortress has a full interior and all the doors/drawbridge/trapdoor work.

Nordheim Village

Built for the Child's Life category of the Colossal Castle Contest and also as a free build for Guilds of Historica. Legonardo inspired the roofs of the houses and Eklund inspired the roof on the well. I researched vikings a bit for this build and tried to make the houses historically accurate. Ther...

Re: Kaldrfell Castle

Anymore close-up images? Very nice snow effect. I like the cliff and stair you built in front of the castle. Do you know is there any online tutorial to teach beginner to make those rocks? Whoops, forgot to give a link to more pictures: http://brickbuilt.tk/Kaldrfell-Castle.php No I didn't, but it ...

Re: Kaldrfell Castle

Superb, once again. I could lose hours gawking at the stuff in the Guilds. My son is almost 8 and really wants to learn how to do round buildings, so I'll make sure he studies your work here. PM me with your BL name and I'll send you a coupon, if you like. Thanks! There are definitely tons of amazi...

Kaldrfell Castle

An entry into the Castle category of the Colossal Castle Contest and a freebuild for Guilds of Historica. This is my largest build yet. There is a full interior in every building, and the keep lifts off and hinges open. Also every door/trapdoor, and the drawbridge and portcullis are all functional. ...

I rarely build outside the Castle theme, but I've been meaning to do a good sized sci-fi build this year so when SHIPtember conteset was announced I went for it. The contest is to design and build a SHIP (Super Huge Investment in Parts, a spaceship that is over 100 studs long) in the month of Septem...
