The breaching of Helm ’s Deep in The Two Towers is one of the cool part of what is already a pretty darn cool competitiveness tantrum – and as this incredible cyclorama by Flickr userGrant Davisshows , it take care just as impressive made out of Lego .
There ’s a lot to love about Grant ’s cyclorama – not only is it packed with detail , like the small watercourse hightail it up to the modest logic gate the Uruks planted their turkey in , or the very nerveless textural effect he used to make Helm ’s Deep ’s wall itself – but obviously the most impressive bit of all is the way he captured the paries actually fly out , with everything from a glow red blowup at the core , to debris knocking Uruk - Hai over and some unfortunate Rohirrim and Elves being sent fly into the air . It look utterly brilliant , I do n’t think I ’ve ever see such a convincing ‘ special event ’ made in Lego – it ’s almost like it ’s a freeze material body from a video rather than an actual diorama .
Grant lifted the humeral veil a little when he post the build toMOCpagesas part of a competition though , revealing his brilliantly constructed plosion from the back , showing how it was build out of translucent orangish Lego piece , and smartly structure supports held the mid - flight minifigures and debris :
I ’m quite fond of that Rohirrim on the far left holding up a flying Elf with his spear . Clever !
