Very cool.  I'm going to be stealing quite a few ideas from your pictures.
Great use of the lions heads in the archways.  I also really liked the
flower in the vase, the fire excape, and the armoured cars were cool....

I usually buy adventurer sets so I can rob them for castle.  Maybe I'll
change my mind....

Hi all,

The Brickshelf folder of my Adventurers ISCC2 entry is now public (sorry, • no
fancy website this year):

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=30450


I tried to make the story self-explanatory in the pictures, but you can • open
the story text in a new browser to read along if you'd like:

I tried to be totally original in the design and details, however I did
use Bram Lambrecht's great office chair design in the first image.  Other
(easily missed) details:

Many of the spider's joints and thorax are fully articulated, so it's very
'posable'

Wheel design of the cars, using castle wagon wheels and 30.4 x 14 tires.

Headlights using minifig pots and pans.

Coat-rack using minifig hands, typewriter, flower and vase.

Window-blinds using 1 x 2 bricks with grill

The strange armored car design is based on actual French and British • WWI-era
armored cars.


Anyways, hope you enjoy it.


  Take care,

  Gary
