Frequency ~ Tune In and Watch Videos FLAM3 TYPOTOPO Jean Jullien Huge Model of Isengard From Over 22000 LEGOs Master LEGO building team OneLUG have completed their incredible model of the Battle of Isengard, a key battle in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. The model includes a whopping seven-foot tall Orthanc tower, dozens of ents, over a hundred orcs, and two small hobbits. Built to minifig scale, the entire tableau weighs 145 pounds, and uses 22,000 LEGO bricks across its eight-foot diameter. Incredibly, key scenes from the Lord of the Rings film are depicted in exacting detail across the diorama. (OneLUG via io9, The Brothers Brick) Lords of Arrakis Dear reader, I created this tutorial to provide answers to some of the many questions I've seen people asking on forums only to learn that individual questions frequently cannot be simply or briefly answered. This tutorial starts at the very beginning and goes in detail through all the steps of creating "Lords of Arrakis," being profusely illustrated with screen shots. In order to include as many people as possible and cover a maximum of unforeseeable needs, it assumes only a rudimentary knowledge of Ultra Fractal, spelling everything out in detail. I spent considerable time and effort trying to make it as conveniently navigable as possible. Though I'm a writer, I purposely abandoned some of the rules of grammar, such as the usage of bold and italics, and the positioning of final commas inside quotation marks. I hope this tutorial really helps you! Troy R.
