Finally some Lego creations to post. I have two here, both still works in progress fo sorts.
The First is classic SW. A few posts back I showed my in progress Jabbas Palace in an attempt to more accurately combine the two current Lego sets (9516 & 75005) in fact there are 2 Rancor sets being used here, well one and half technically. From my first images you can see i tried building a complete shell and creating a more substantial palace and surrounding cliffs, but what that meant was very little of the sub structure could be seen and even less interacted with and the entire thing was too big, too heavy and unmanageable so instead i looked at just expanding and altering the Rancor sets so the gate moved to the front so it still worked, a larger base was added to the top for the palace to sit on and an extra wing added for the droid torture area. I need to add in more droids (just the one being tortured right now) and a few details and add back the figures etc but I think this is more of a Lego model than the first effort. The idea is to display this with the New Sail Barge and Skiff sets – at least until the wife says put it all away…
The second set is just figures right now. I am planning on building micro-scenes for these guys but they are my attempt (and some bits I have had custom painted – a first for me and Lego) at Discworld figures.
Left to right, top to bottom we have:
The Luggage, Rincewind, Death, Susan, Granny Weatherwax (With Grebo), The Librarian (Custom paint job through firestartoys), Lord Vetinri, Sam Vims (With Dragon) and a Group shot.
I am also working on a sub structure for the recent Yoda/Dooku set from Attack of the Clones, but might give that up in favour of doing the small Discworld sets.
Anyway – Enjoy.
