Continuing my series of Lord of the Rings micro-builds (http://lego.cuusoo.com/profile/Shayd_DeGrai#projects), I humbly offer my interpretation of Minas Tirith, the seven tiered city overlooking the Pelennor Fields and the banks of the the Anduin.
The model is 32 studs square and about the same length in height if you count the very tip of the tower. It's something of a mega-micro-build in that it's made from a very large number of very small parts for it's size
As this is relatively small model of an entire city, I tried to give it as much depth of detail as I could - unlike some of my other, more Architecture-like abstractions.
I was shooting for something with a distinctly recognizable shape that would catch your eye from across the room and reward those who bothered to take a closer look with tiny archways, causeways and spires that make the a city feel more organic and alive than any single structure within it.
If you like this model, please support it at http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/17647 as always, I can use all the support I can get
Thanks for dropping by.
