| Very impressive! And the model captures the city very well (which is of course very subjective). Luckily I have read the books before I saw the films and your version hits my idea of Minas Tirith much more. Andreas (17 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.castle, FTX)

|
| Hi all, Here is a microscale project I've been working on for a while. Is something truly microscale if it covers six baseplates and is 40 bricks high? Anyway, here is my rendition of (URL) Tirth> (URL) I tried to make an effort to match this to my (...)

| | | | | Chinese pagoda
|
| I constructed this microscale Chinese pagoda as a centerpiece for a dinner party (for 25!) that we hosted two weeks ago. It isn't accurate to any specific pagoda, but is broadly based on some of the techniques and styles I observed in some source (...)

I'll link a picture from GMLTC member Bill-2 (that's one of his firetrucks!): (URL) Something like this allows people to get their noses right up next to a model, but still prevents them from picking them up. Maybe Lego still has these (...) (17 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

It is an expensive solution for a LUG, but perhaps the venue has some available, or you can pick one up at a store that is going out of (...)

| (...) Ted, These are interesting questions to me as we are working to finalize arrangements for Brickworld. Personally, I make robots and they are "hands-on" items, so I don't want stanchions around my stuff at all. But, as you noted, the event (...)

| | | | | Displays at Fests
|
| While at BrickFestPDX 2007 last weekend it occurred to me that there was a problem with displaying microscale MOCs and vignettes. The public were being kept behind stanchions at arms-length from the tables on which the MOCs were displayed. I moved (...) (17 years ago, 4-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.build.vignette)

After I read your post I tried putting a plate and then a tile on the wheels, and as you said, it's just too big for the scale. (...)
