Legends hall

This is my Lego Legends Hall. It is a place dedicated to the old heros of the land. It's a place for aspiring warriors to come and study the past men of arms. The hall includes suits of armor, and a mounted dragons head which gaurds the treasure chest.
The building style is the same one that I used in my previous model. You may notice that I am experimenting with the shape of my buildings. The last one was'nt as long, and it was a little wider. The balconeys on this building also are something the Warriors Guild lacks.

First floor

A close up of the first floor, you can see all the key features inside. Including the double spiral staircases and mounted dragons head.

Modules

This is all three modules of the warriors hall side by side. You can see the plate system that I used to allow easy access to the interior.

Adjustments

I made some minor changes to the guild. If you look closely, you see that I added lamp posts and I changed the dragons head a little bit. I think this really helps the appearance.

Exterior with roof off

Here is a picture so you can see the junctions between the first and second floor, and the top with the roof off.

Interior

Here is the inside of my upper level. I have an opening for my spiral staircase which you can't see for here, and a little shop in the one corner.

Interior

Here is the inside of the first floor, notice how I have suits of armor as decoration, I have found that it helps a lot in making the interior of a middle age type building more realistic. I also am beginning to learn how to use spiral staircases in my buildings, they give it an awesome twist.

My Lego Warriors guild


This is the front entrance
I'm working on my Architecture, its still not perfect as you can see. But, if you look at the wall between the first and second level you will see how I used inverted and regular slopes to make an interesting shape and pattern. Don't ask me what kind of architecture that would be copying, because3 I have no idea. I like the way the bottom wall has the tiles placed on it so that it looks a bit more like stone. Thats a new idea I had, and it seems to work well. The dragons head above the door was made from around 40 Lego pieces. I don't believe in using a dragons head piece in my buildings, I prefer to make up my own design. Thats about it for the outside.
