The Battle of Helms Deep is Not Over Yet

/

We're all quite familiar with Helms Deep. We've seen tiny versions, we've seen medium size versions. However, rarely do we see a model this large. Classical Bricks is prepared to recreate quite a battle, the question is...does he have enough Uruk-hai? I would recommend having multiple Elves ready to protect that weakness in the fortress...

Nathaniel Stoner

     My name is Nathaniel Stoner, and I am an very active LEGO builder.  I mostly build in the themes of castle and science-fiction, but I also dabble in other genres and create occasional random MOC's (My Own Creations). 

     When I was younger, I would get and build small LEGO sets for my birthday, but I was never really into them.  When they fell apart, I would become frustrated attempting to put them back together and would throw them in a box in my closet.  I couldn't stand them!

     Then, miraculously, I became addicted to the LEGO brick later in my teen years.  Ever since, I have continued to build up (pun intended) my collection of bricks and to expand my knowledge of techniques and building skills.  LEGO is truly more than a toy, its an art form and a way to express yourself.

     For the most part, I collect LEGO Star Wars (mainly the minifigs), which is probably my favorite LEGO theme.  I have a fairly decent collection, including some of the original 1999 sets, such as the Snowspeeder, X-Wing, and Naboo starfighter.  I also collected LEGO the Lord of the Rings when those sets first came out.  The minifigs are great, and the story remains one of my favorites ever. 

     My hope is to inspire other young (and perhaps even older) LEGO builders to unleash their inner creativity!  You can find me on my Flikr here.

Helm's Deep is no doubt one of the most recreated highlights of The Lord of the Rings trilogy.  I have seen many minifigure scale replicas of the famous fortress, and only a few miniature versions.  This is definitely the largest microscale version I have personally seen!  Ha, that's ironic.   KevFett2011 (typically a Star Wars builder) managed to capture an accurate representation that almost appears as if it was friendly for minifgs.  One of the details that gives away the true scale of this MOC is the joystick army attacking the lower wall.  Using joysticks as people is becoming a popular technique, but no less cool.  Great work, Kevin!

Skippy And Burt On The Wall

The battle raged on as Skippy and Burt made their way to the top of the wall, bows in hand. Their only task, defend the drain under the wall. Before them was an imposing sight, thousands of bloodthirsty orcs, hellbent on their destruction. As they settled into position, Skippy spotted a particular orc in the throng.

 

SKIPPY
Hey, what's that really big orc doing?

BURT
He's running toward us with a huge sparkler! Bit late to be celebrating New Year! What a buffoon!

SKIPPY
Where is he going? Doesn't he know we're all done with that holiday? I'm already writing the wrong date on my checks.

BURT
Yup, day late and a dollar short eh mate? Looks like he's heading into the drain down there.

 

Kaboom.
