Simply Stunning.

I first saw this about a year ago. Love it. Has a sinister feel about it and I can imagine that black thing moving along and taking over the whole street. Scary : )

amazing!

incredible!i love the way the black is leaking in....

MOTD better than some of the resent ones I don't know what makes MOTD but this is.....Cool.

"danger will Robinson" been a while since Iv'e heard that one and wheres the robot???

lol a power miner. this is awsome could you please post how to make that car.

Awesome! This is simply amazing!

This is so epic!Congratz on MOTD!

Awesome!!

The heros will fall under the rampage of the beast! Great detail!

Wow I really like how you made that transition from color to black

Caleb S is right, it does look like the darkness from kingdom hearts, great MOC!

Whoa, a brilliant MOTD!

Awesome! Congrats on MOTD!

just one word: EXCELLENT !

dude....this is just pure evil...but, congrats on MOFD...i guess. it's a good moc, but really dark...

Very well deserved MOTD, congratz!

this is awesome I love you use of the red snakes!!

It looks like the darkness from kingdom hearts.

That's absoloutly amesomely made!!! Wow!

Happy MOTD!!

That street is epic on it's own, but the colouring with black gives it the illusion of movement. Excellent job!

I've seen this before, but I never commented, to my undying shame. So, here is my comment: flat-out epic! Congrats on your heartily earned MOTD!

wow this is so so so cool it deservs to be moc of the year if there was epicly epic moc

brilliant. really brilliant. i like the dark is taking over effect. and the guts comming out of the minifig theres lieng near the shadow warrior's, is a great detail. 6/5 great work, Keep it up

Glad to see this on MOTD. Congrats!!!

cool..i like the power miner in the gallery...

Pretty cool!

Yikes! Nice build!

The use of Fabuland figures in your work is a great touch.

Aawesome!

WOW Your creations are incredible, especially this! I love your technique, your maniacal attention to details, your original ideas... Great job!

made me think of a spiderman game where the black goop/ symbiote thing takes over the city. This is a fansastic moc!!!

Wow! I had not considered LEGO as a dramatic art form before.

Very, very creative! This is one of the few high quality post-apocalytic builds. The wave of darkness going through town couldn´t have been displayed any better. Creepy, Silent Hill-like... The unavoidable Reign of Darkness... The world´s ending. The grand abyss so close by... Making such an effectful diorama in a relatively small scene takes a lot. You nailed it - and as K. Goldman or whoever's motto says: you control the action. Congrats to an outstanding MOC. Best regards, Steffen

Fantastic build, some modular house, some castle looks, some fantasy and a little touch of the dark side and you have a fantastic conbination. No wonder you have so much fans...on now even one more...

WOW! Incredible Moc: 5/5

lol looks like spider man web of shadows

Found it. ;)

Cool on so many levels. Crazy good job on the whole thing. I especially like the guys under the road just kicking back...HA!

amazing moc

What a masterpiece!

this is 1st just awsome, the house look great, then u got this invasion that adds to the greatness, and i just LOVE the way the black swollows up the buildings. great job.

awesome mate

I wouldn't be suprised if you won our contest.

THis totally rules! What an imaginative skills! Great stuff! Keep cheering us with your creations!

Thanks for the replies everyone. To address your other questions, Chris Roberts, None at all really, I just remember little details I've seen in real buildings in town over the years. Or just make them up. 2 weeks. I think my Lego room is about as disorganized as a scrapheap. I spend a lot of time searching and sorting and sometimes even give up looking for a part I know I have and think of another solution.

Dude, this is by far the most awesome MOC ever. Go here for a cake. http://armchairgeneralist.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b39369e20105362b61b9970b-800wi

Excellent! 10/5!

Cool Black Fantasy Moc And I Must Great Modular Houses

Well, just like yourself, I haven't been logging on to MOCpages too often recently, but I can't believe that I still haven't rated this one here. From the moment I saw the thread about it over @ EB, I knew this one was going to be another amazing MOC. Both Asya and I think that you're one of the very very best LEGO town builders - most of all since your skills reach far beyond constructing stupendous buildings and setting up scenes. Bravo, Mr. Arts! You rock (or meaow, according to the mood I guess)...

reminds me of the war of the worlds, and the red weed. exellent work.

Really nice! i especially like the underground sections!

Do you use a lot of reference material for the details? How long from start to finish did this take? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm really curious as to how different people approach building. I am at sort of a critical place with my own building. My home office became the Lego room, which is now not big enough for any more models... unless I expand to the garage. A small Lego city means I've run out of space to build. I'd also be interested in how other folks stay organized... I feel like I spend 80% of my time either sorting or finding.

Hi Chris Roberts, to answer your questions: I have a fulltime job as an office manager for an import/export agency. I also spend a lot of time with my wife and friends, or just generally in town. And in between I sleep ;) Usually, and this case is no different, I just make it up as I go. I just start somewhere and go from there. In this case I started in the bottom left corner with the wine cellar and sewers there, and just went from there. The whole build is basically improvised.

You are equally talented at designing and building your structures as you are at telling a story, you make some fascinating models—this one takes the cake, however. I'd love to know more about you, Aliencat. What do you do when you're not building legos? How do you go about creating something like this? What's your process?

...wow

Thanks a lot for all the compliments everyone, I really appreciate it, and like reading your opinions :) Thanks Chief Andreas, the backstory is my own, I just sort of thought it up while building.

What a fantastic MOC! Did you invent the story or is it from any book or movie? Anyway I like it.

Schitterend hoe het zwart zich verspreidt, prachtige gebouwen, net echt en vooral zeer gedetailleerd, de riolering is ook een leuk detail, prachtig

Amazing, Idea was quite extraordinary, but it works out very very well! Details were incredible!

One of the best mocs I have ever seen on Mocpages! The detail is incredible, the build is superb. Excellent moc!

Een ongelooflijk gave moc!

WOW!!! There are tons of details are being packed into such a small scene! I like those tentacles which is attacking those buildings! The idea of this scene is impressive! [blogged] http://kinsbricks.blogspot.com/2009/04/truck-and-town.html

Dubious temporal physics aside... This is one of the most creative and well built diorama's I've ever seen. I demand a sequel!

Sweet stuff. I'd write more, but I fear I've lingered enough already. Black Fantasy is spreading again!

Absolutely love it! It's almost a shame to see such an amazing street get used for a sci-fi scene, but holy moly it's cool. I'd add some more people running away to make it a bit more blockbuster but still a huge 10/10 Love it love it love it!

I thought we'd found a cure for the Black Fantasy virus, certainly haven't seen as much of it lately. Is this outbreak evidence that it has mutated into a drug-resistant form?!

that was awesome/creepy! TBot

Awesome job mate! This thing is sick, in a good way of course ;)

Really cool. Reminds me of something that would be in Doctor who

Wicked! Creative building and very very creative theme!

You made me so happy with this one :)

You know this is one of the creations that amazes you from the very first look! I like everything about this MOC, the idea itself is impressive, and the way you've presented it is just so right, I lol(ed) about the "telling jokes" part! funny touch... all in all another amazing MOC from you >>> peace.. Fofo

AHHH! It's "The Nothing" from the Neverending Story! Great build is really not a big enough compliment for this. Just amazing sir... simply, amazing. ~ Chris.

RUN FOR THE HILLS!!!!

I really love such creations with underground structure. I guess I will need a quite long time untill I had a closer look at everything, but still I know that the details are just everywhere and just amazing. However very interesting weapons your 3 heros have. I really like the one with the shotgun, very interesting, like already said above.

Wow this is a masterpeice! Everything is so perfect, I like the black buildings the most and the Rock Raider thing is funny.-George

Fantastic! You've been building quite a town there - and then that BLACK coming in ... really one of the creepiest MOCs I have ever seen. Great work!

Excellent diorama! I like the blending between the normal and black part. Very nice!

<:O-some! Black Fantasy and City! I am stunned! -tumbles down the chair-

Nice,every brick was placed perfectly, and the black parts of the building are fantastic. Excellent job, I'm very impressed. -Dylan

Nannan would be proud!

This is sweet. I'm assuming it's a kind of 'Black Fantasy'-ish infection consuming the city? Anyways, great work.

Awesome imagination as well as superb building technique! I always look forward to a new creation from Aliencat :-) Thanks!!

Wow - most excellent. The way the blight spreads seamlessly through the architecture, even over innocents trapped in its path. By the way, I thought the name sounded familiar. I haven't read the book, but your MOC shares a title with Peter Hamilton's recent novel. Nice job.

Glad I don't live in that town. see ya. garth

Mmmm, tasty...

Wow this is amazing, I wouldn't be surprised if this won MOC Of The Day! -T

This is superb. There's nothing better than citizenry fleeing in terror and bizarre creatures with weapons. The buildings are beautiful and the MOC conveys action and pathos. The black is well done -- the sense of a slowly spreading contaigon is carried off masterfully. Ok, can the high-falutin' talk -- This MOC is da bomb.

This has to be the best MOC i've seen posted in MOCpages this year. Excellent work!

Wow, that is epic. Very well done!!

Everything looks amazing!

Hee?! Aliencat spreekt Nederlands? Heel mooi gedaan: veel details en prachtig uitgevoerd idee. Wacht tot Nannan Z of Lee Jones hiervan lucht krijgen; dit is spek voor hun bek!

Te gek. 'K ben nu zelf bezig aan een APC. Je zal hem wel in het weekend zien, of morgen.
