The Battle of Thermopylae

Simon Pickard, (brick spartan on Flickr) has posted his completed creation: the Battle of Thermopylae!

I've blogged some work-in-progress pictures of this before, but it's amazing to see the finished project! :)

He says it took nearly two years to build, and tens of thousands of pieces were used.

And almost 500 minifigs are battling it out on the massive cliffs!

Check out all the detail on Flickr!

The Siege Of Châlus

This castle is just so awesome! I'm very partial to tan buildings and this one is no exception. I love how TheBrickAvenger places lever pieces about his scenes to make it look like arrows. Brilliant stuff. 

Check it out on Flickr.

300 in LEGO!

Simon Pickard, (Brick.Spartan on Flickr) has been working on a huge diorama showing the battle of Thermopylae as it was in the novel and movie "300".   

This thing is very impressive. The size alone is staggering to the average LEGO builder. 

The amount of figs included is a sight to behold.

Simon states that the project is nearing completion! And we may see some pics of the finished build on Flickr soon. :)

A Roman Temple under attack.

Jimkeepers has built a very well made, elegant, and unique creation. 

What really stood out to me in this build was the beautiful SNOT (studs not on top) columns, I don't believe I've ever seen it done quite like that. And the figs are excellent.  

Be sure to check out all the details on Flickr.

For the People, Freedom, and Honor!

Flickr user Markus19840420 has built a huge castle Diorama.

I love the large amount of troops and the awesome siege weapons.

I can only imagine the difficulty of photographing such a large creation.

I'm loving the broken look he's achieved on the walls.

There are many more views in the set on Flickr.

Go check them out! :)

Restoring Order

ShareburG Has built a wonderful scene of a medieval siege.

I always enjoy a battle scene. And the fig posing in this build is outstanding.

The castle itself is very well constructed and so are the wooden siege weapons outside.

Be sure to see all the detail on Flickr. 

Battle at the River

Ryclen has built a very classy battle scene, the great fig posing, excellent rope bridge, and superb water, all blend together into one gorgeous MOC.
