CHRISTMAS TREANT, THE FESTIVE FIR FELLOW.
Happy #monstermonday and Happy Holidays! This is my entry into the #HolidayMonsterSmash challenge being hosted by @bricksanFELLOW. over on Instagram, and is a build I've been excited to make for quite a while! The Christmas Treant is a creature that would fit perfectly in a holiday-themed D&D one-shot, and opens up a lot of fun possibilities for story. How long has the treant been festive? Who decorates the treant? Is the decor itchy? How do they get the topper on? While in my world, the holiday isn't called Christmas, there is, in fact, a festive treant whose story inspired the tradition of decorating trees for those that celebrate. For a fun little bit of lore regarding it, read on! Swipe through to the end to see the Treant both alternatively decorated in ornaments and undecorated!
Ages ago, when the Dwarven holiday of Gotmas was still in its infancy, there existed a quaint little village nestled into the Lower Gottim Mountain Range. The village was known for being one of the few Dwarven settlements that saw snow fall in the winter. The village had befriended an ancient creature known as a Treant—a living, walking, thinking tree—and had many years of friendship with the being. They would often trade gifts, and occasionally play light-hearted pranks on each other. One fateful Gotmas Eve, however, a group of young Dwarves in the village noted that the Treant never had any holidays to celebrate, and planned to rectify it with a practical joke of their own.
That night, while the Treant was rooted and fast asleep, the Dwarves snuck out with a coil of colorful magelights affixed to a white, silvery rope—the same kind of garlands they decorated their homes with. They crept into the grove where the Treant slept and set themselves to work. Vibrant twinkles of blue, red, yellow, and green now lit up the ancient being, topped off with a golden star ornament. When the Dwarves were done decorating, they woke up the Treant, grins plastered across their faces. When the Treant awoke, however, he did not revel in their amusement, for he thought the young Dwarves had set him on fire. The Treant found a newfound pep in his step and chased the Dwarves through the woods, their laughter quickly turning to panic.
When the Treant had finally reached the village, and the Dwarvish youths had run out of breath, he stopped, and looked around. People had started to come out of their houses at the commotion of the Treant's thunderous footsteps, and beheld the sight. As the Treant surveyed the Dwarves he had called friends, and they surveyed him, they began to ooh and ah. The crowd that had gathered started to remark on how lovely the Treant looked in the magelights, and how fitting the gold star atop the canopy was. The Treant slowly began to see that the decorations that covered his leafy branches matched those that the Dwarves had strung up on their roof eaves.
"Merry Gotmas, Mr. Treant!" cried the young Dwarves, who had finally caught their breath. The crowd began to chime in, echoing their sentiment, and wishing good tidings to the ancient plant. The Treant started to laugh, as the Dwarves gathered around him and sung their Gotmas songs, dancing and playing in the colorfully lit night. Since that fateful Gotmas Eve, the tradition of decorating trees in ornaments and magelights began to spread to all who celebrated Gotmas. It's said that each year, the youths of that village still go up into the woods to decorate the Treant, and bring him gifts. To Dwarves all around the world who celebrate the age-old tradition of Gotmas, there's no question about it: it's truly the most wonderful time of the year.
I designed these coaches after the British Rail Mk1 Coaches that were first standardized in 1948, and served until their formal withdrawal in 2001, where they now reside on preservation railways. I designed this coach to be pulled as a pair with the brake coach trailing along behind. This model is not to scale, but because of it being shorter than the scale model it is lighter, and is easier to pull. It does not have a interior to keep the weight and cost down. All black 44728 brackets can be replaced with any dark 44728 bracket. Dk gray, Lt gray, etc. All blue/dark blue bricks in instructions can be replaced with any color. If you encounter any problems with the instructions, or parts list please contact me.

MARVEL X D&D: THE RANGER
This is the ninth post of a series that explores what a number of fantastical Marvel characters would be if they were one of the 13 different classes of Dungeons and Dragons (5e). The ninth of these classes is the Ranger.
Hawkeye (Hunter archetype)
The classical depiction of a ranger often calls to mind a survivalist wielding a bow and arrow, making a path through a densely-wooded wilderness. While Hawkeye's survivalist skills aren't quite as pertinent to his character, his skill with a bow is quite simply unmatched. Many of the tools in a Hunter Ranger's kit line up well with Hawkeye's, especially the ability to launch a volley against a number of foes.
After being inactive for a while, I have chosen a new name and have a new logo. Formerly Republic Customs now Atomic Bricks. I will be posting everything to this account in the future and only put some things on my old account.
Website will be up soon and will continue to sell all the items that were on the RC site.
I created Impulse today as the idea just came to me and I'm incredibly happy with him. I went for the messier hair as I wanted to use the Hal Jordan Hair for a Kid Flash (which lots of guys have done) and I wanted Bart to have more hair.
I think he's come out fantastic!
I wanted to play around with the new Nexo Knights pieces and thought about Tony having attachable limbs to help with larger jobs. Happy with the outcome.
MARVEL X D&D: THE BARBARIAN
This is the second post of a series that explores what a number of fantastical Marvel characters would be if they were one of the 13 different classes of Dungeons and Dragons (5e). The second of these classes is the Barbarian.
Drax (Path of the Berserker)
Barbarians are known for their ability to channel their sheer rage into power and durability. If there's a Marvel character whose unceasing anger and quest for vengeance fans the flames of ferocity, its Drax the Destroyer.
So here are my TWO versions of the same character. I made Version A a while ago but I think Version B works better.
I changed him after getting the new Avengers Spaceship and having an extra re-breather. What do you think??

LUTHERIA SALVERYN, THE RIMEHERALD.
(Winter Wipeout, Pt. 4)
This is my fourth entry into the Winter Wipeout contest hosted by @haon.brx over on Instagram! The theme for this fourth week was "Snow Mages." My entry is an Aasimar Evocation Wizard who specializes in spells that deal cold damage. She wields the powerful and mysterious Staff of the Snow Globe, said to be filled with magic from another realm, far in the future. Lutheria is an incredibly accomplished mage and alchemist known as the "Rimeherald," being incredibly capable of condensing the air and moisture around her into frost, and employing it to devastating effects. It's said that often when she leaves a room, a small trail of snowflakes flutter in the air behind the sweeping train of her robes. At her side is her trusty familiar, Frostbeak, the snowy owl, and "Zero," her ice elemental myrmidon, bound to a magical suit of armor.
As mentioned in the first post, there's a bit of story and lore wrapped in the form of some poetry/lyrics, so read on if you're curious!
"It's said if you listen to the winter winds howl,
You'll hear the spirits of those from the past
If through those winds you see soaring, a white owl
The spirits may answer to the spell that is cast.
Magic at the will of the snow mage most true—
The Rimeherald, a legend, a myth amongst folk—
Which beckons lost souls like a warm igloo
In the blizzard unceasing, her staff does evoke.
This famed one lent power when malice was roused
And the people relinquished all hope for salvation
When time came to locate the quarry, she dowsed
Her trail of snow pointed toward liberation.
Armed with her ice elemental myrmidon
Who bent to her will and protected her life
She pressed on til the darkness yielded to the dawn
And freed the Altairians from starvation and strife."

SYTHIL, THE LIZARDFOLK RANGER.
This is my first character for the Greymane's Haven Adventuring Guild ongoing challenge hosted over on @greymane_guild on Instagram! As these characters come together, you may start to notice a theme...
Sythil is a scaled, reptilian humanoid known as a Lizardfolk, and is a Ranger of the Hunter archetype. Armed with as potent a nose for tracking his prey as his arrows are sharp, this tall, lean, and menacing individual exceeds at finding his quarry, no matter their type, origin, or capabilities. Though his skills are second to none, his tendency to leave shavings behind when he carves weapons and trinkets from the bones of his former enemies makes his presence... somewhat unwelcome in most cities. At least at the inns.
Recovering from his employment under a Hut, Sev is trying to bring his aggressive nature back in line. Not ready to return home he is currently working with the Motley Crew as a cargo and inventory supervisor. Sev Lithis is an Ishi Tib
