Colonel Declan Blackwood

 ~~~

Formerly of the 43rd Northumberland heavy tank battalion, the Colonel was once a prosperous soldier.... but is now a humble explorer, mercenary, and salvager. His makeshift steam scooter helps him cover hundreds of miles in a single day, as he roams the desolate countryside.

It's a new trend going around Flickr called Vapourlypes. I gave it a try, and 

I'm glad I did! it was a unique theme and quite refreshing.

Megatherium

~~~

Scattered throughout the northern half of Roawia, this elusive monster can weigh up to 4 tons and grow up to 20 feet long! It's powerful arms are used to tear down trees and gobble up nuts and fruits therein. The Megatherium is among one of the largest land animals ever seen, rivaled in it's size by only a few species of elephants to the south and the great yeti to the far north. But in the province of Lenfald, this beast holds the crown as the biggest mammal to walk the forest green.

Fourth wall commentary:
Part of my Animals of the Lands Of Classic Castle series. And this is my fav so far!
The name Megatherium comes from the two Greek words, mega which means great, and therion which means beast.

Red Warrior

~~~

This is one of the several custom figs that I'll be bringing to BFVA.

A lot inspiration for this one came from the duct tape wars that my brother and I fought years ago.
This fig represents myself. I personally used an ax or sword, and my shields were almost always round,
and the helmet that I wore in the field of battle is surprisingly similar to the Brickforge battle helm.
C&C Welcome :)

Flashback~ Nature In The Brick

These peaceful, lush builds have tremendous inspiration behind them. 

The creation on the top was in inspired by the great landscape builders of Flickr, the MOC itself depicts a Warrior returning home. The large tree and river were built for the LEGO Landscape contest, the river (my favorite) was based on a photograph my dad took on our vacation to Tennessee :)

Figs For The Feast

~~~

Now some you may already know that myself and my brother are on our way to Brickfair VA. My project was to rebuild the great hall of Rothburg which was one of my favorite MOCs since joining the online community.  

  The figs at the left of the collage are all based off of LCC Garheim members.  Each of these will be feasting with one another in the MOC.
If you are one of said members and you do or do not like the representation of your fig, please leave a comment.

Animals Of LCC: Work In Progress.

This is the start of my latest animal project that I'll be bringing to 

Brickfair Virginia! Here are three hints as to what it is. :)

~~~

 1. It's really big!

2. It's extinct.

3. Its claws are supposed to be like that.

Start guessing! :)
