Medieval Fantasy meets LEGO Again

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the to-much-spare-time dept.

An anonymous reader writes "At over two years in the making, The Kingdom of Ikros provides viewers with a 40-chapter novel, graphically illustrated entirely by LEGO models and Photoshop effects. Apparently the author isn't stopping there, either, a link off the main page takes you to another website which will host the sequel. The Kingdom of Ikros website also contains a pair of flash movies and pictures of the models used in the story, as well as biographies of the characters involved."

  1. This week's TMTOYH award winner! by phillymjs · · Score: 4, Funny

    I am proud to annouce that these guys have won this week's "Too Much Time On Your Hands" award.

    If they really come through on a sequel, I may just rename the award after them.

    Medieval Fanatic fails to impress girls with LEGOs. Again.

  7. Decapitate! by QEDog · · Score: 1, Funny

    Some people said that CG actors would replace real actors... maybe actors should be worried about Lego actors now! They are easier to decapitate, for one thing, and they are less extravagant.

    As the number of posts on a LEGO-related thread increase, the probability of a slashdot effect goes to one.

    No, it goes to two because it'll be reposted.
