Spring

Hey everyone!

I’ve been really sick for the past 2 weeks but this week I finally started recovering, and that means that I had a lot of spare time to play LEGO!

Ever since the first moment I opened Flickr, which was a few years before I registered here, I've wanted to build a big medieval house in this whimsical fantasy style, where everything looks like it’s on the verge of collapsing. Luke Watkins Hutchinson is one of the first people who inspired me to build medieval houses, as he is known for his awesome builds in this style.

Unfortunately, I never had enough pieces to create something like this until now. While such a house may seem average for many medieval builders, I struggled to construct anything of this scale for years due to a lack of parts, particularly for the walls. I got a lot of pieces on my birthday in April, which finally gave me the opportunity to build something bigger than usual. Still, I ran out of all lime, light bluish grey slopes and dark brown, but that does not really matter anymore because the MOC is finished.

Also, I want to thank everyone who has been helping me with techniques and useful advice in the BII server on Discord, that really helps me moving forward from adding details to my builds to photographing and editing them. I watched a few videos and read a few articles about colours, editing and photographing MOCs, which also helped me achieve the desired look.

So what I want to say is that building this type of house is something that I’ve dreamed about for a while, and I really hope you’ll enjoy it!

Here is the list of main inspirations for this MOC:

Gloomy Gulch by Luke Watkins Hutchinson

Eldford Barracks-GoC by Roanoke Handybuck

The Pilgrim by Joe (jnj_bricks)

Awakening by Classical Bricks

Fin the farmer by The Maestro

The four seasons - Birth by Brickleas
