A great Castle builder and the Great Winter Hunt

Watching or listening to other people play D&D has become quite a popular pastime, but it’s such a big commitment. I find it much more fun to watch the shared storytelling in the LEGO role-play community, like Feodalis, a French language castle RPG where different builders lead their own royal houses in elaborate MOCs. Gus (Faëbricks) has been building House Austren over the past year, and now the builder takes the faction home for the Great Winter Hunt. First we see Lord Galdric and his people in their capital of Feuillenoir where a visiting Duke Bellini comes bearing a crossbow.

The brick craftsmanship is impeccable, with vaulted stone arches creating a sense of grandeur. The brick-built stag statue is a wonderful centerpiece, especially when backlit against a window of transparent bricks. Of course such a statue is perfect for a faction that incorporates the Foresters crest.

Gus’ latest build is less royal in setting but no less masterful in its creation. Here we see a tuyé, a traditional smokehouse, where the Winter Hunt’s game meat is preserved. Not only is this a great little medieval slice of life, but there’s cultural specificity to the worldbuilding with the tuyé being traditional to the mountainous Franche-Comté region, where France borders Switzerland. The triangular smokehouse is a fun shape, well-executed in bricks, but the landscaping is equally imprssive.
