  Re: Microscale Minas Tirith
 
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)

  Microscale Minas Tirith
 
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 (...)

  Re: Spiral Stairs
 
(...) Hi, Your solution is close to mine, except that for me the step height is 2 plates. I always build my stairs (even the straight ones) with a 2 plates step height except if it's a stair in a square in front of a church for example (in that case (...)

  Re: Spiral Stairs
 
Hi Jeff, thanks for sharing your insights! It's a lot of fun fiddling around and coming up with some really constructive ideas! Here is what I've made a while ago: (URL) really nice to see what solutions are found to raise the minifigs to a next (...)

  Re: Spiral Stairs
 
(...) Very clever with the different wedge plates. Here's a solution I came up with a few years ago that uses a 2 plate riser...of course that's easily accomplished with many plate/tile combinations, but at least it's not as steep as a full brick.

  Spiral Stairs
 
I was trying to figure out how to do brick-built spiral stairs besides the Lego Harry Potter or Pirate or Belville specialized pieces because I wanted a (1) plate high riser/step height, & I came across this Brickshelf folder by MuffinToa: (URL) (...)

  Re: Once upon a time...
 
(...) Stunning and very clever designs. I just love the drapes, the violins and all the many thoughtful details. It has a very clean look. I think I have the hots for the young lady in the red gown. She keeps looking back at me too! Best, Jonathan (17 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Once upon a time...
 
(...) Barbara, I'm very impressed with all of the details you have added. My 6 year old daughter has several Playmobil sets (in addition to many LEGO sets) and I can't wait to show her the pictures of your creation. Thanks for sharing, Eric (17 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Once upon a time...
 
(...) --snip-- (...) Hi Barbara, Just wonderful. It is all so stunningly executed (the thin windows in the castle and the minifigs spring to mind) and such a neat concept. I love the direction some people are taking with LEGO of making it a toy (...) (17 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Studs Up Studs Down
 
Always had to choose between studs up or studs down in building a roof structure. Studs down mostly if interior shots were to be taken and studs up if exterior shots were more important. Finally managed to get the best of both, Studs Up Studs Down (...) (18 years ago, 31-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, lugnet.castle, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: Royal Coach of the House of Windsor
 
(...) Very nice. Love the way it sits on the chassis. The round 1x1 plates give a 'spring' look to it. Also, the small touch of dark red on the side of the coach and the harnesses on the horses adds a rich flavor. (...) I think you did pretty well (...)

  Re: Heavy Water Ruins
 
While I remember the original fondly, and enjoyed the update, it is the addition of the ruins that really grabs my attention. It is so well done! God Bless, Nathan (URL) (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

  Re: MOC: Sacrificial Altar "Braaaaaiinssss!"
 
(...) Thanks, David! My previous Tiki-style altar was mostly brown with red and dark blue accents, which did not photograph well or stand out very much. I thought that the brightness of teal would help add a little spark. Dave S. (18 years ago, 26-Mar-07, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.adventurers)
