Big Game Hunter’s Study

[u/Sir_Pistachio]

Awesome use of the Earth half-spheres! I’ve been wondering what to do with mine for a while.

[u/jag149 → u/Sir_Pistachio]

lol… I used to have one of those globe decanters. 

[u/Crimson__Fox]

[u/Sufficient_Push9762 → u/Crimson__Fox]

Jumanji set would be great!

[u/WallopyJoe → u/Crimson__Fox]

You're not a postal worker, are you?

[u/Killing4MotherAgain → u/Crimson__Fox]

I can hear him somehow haha

[u/Pleasant_Inspection9 → u/Killing4MotherAgain]

Lindybeige!

....your balls are showing

[u/JewelCove → u/mielelangue]

Let me guess, white devil white devil?

You speak wachuchu?!

[u/DryRevenue5681 → u/mielelangue]

It’s in the brick!

[u/BookieeWookiee → u/DryRevenue5681]

It's in the bone! It's in the bone!

[u/rundeafso → u/LegoKB]

[u/grandfunkmc → u/LegoKB]

If I didn't see this quote, I would've posted it myself.

[u/MolaMolaMania → u/LegoKB]

It's only missing the big game hunter's head on the wall with a bear lounging in the easy chair.

[u/intensenerd → u/LegoKB]

Love that there are so many of us that thought the same thing!

[u/binaryodyssey]

I use antlers in all of my decorating…

[u/SomeMandalorian → u/binaryodyssey]

[u/Foosel10 → u/binaryodyssey]

Say it again
Who's a man among men?
And then say it once more
Who's the hero next door?

[u/Theseus_geckity → u/binaryodyssey]

Where I live the deer are so overpopulated that they are driving other organisms into extinction. Sometimes killing them is the ethical way. Or we can start airdropping wolves. It would be cool.

[u/Kealanine → u/Theseus_geckity]

…that’s a lyric from Beauty and the Beast.

[u/Theseus_geckity → u/Kealanine]

Indeed it is isn’t it. I feel like my point still stands.😂

[u/Amstroid → u/Theseus_geckity]

Still, I love your idea of airdropping wolves 😂

[u/RandomStoddard → u/binaryodyssey]

No one shoots like Gaston…

[u/Soundwash → u/ImNotHandyImHandsome]

I came here for this! Hahaha! Seriously though that map is an incredible Mercator Projection at that scale in Lego!

[u/ImNotHandyImHandsome → u/Soundwash]

Also, r/mapswithoutjapan

[u/KingsleyShackleblock]

I really hate the concept of game hunting, but the LEGO build looks stunning and well executed! I especially like the creativity of the globe, the chair, the tables and the world map :) The animals look very stunning too, although I definitely prefer them to be alive.

[u/justbeane → u/KingsleyShackleblock]

My sentiment exactly. The subject matter is something that I am uncomfortable with IRL, and that I would not want to celebrate. But this is an amazing build. Great attention to detail.

[u/KingsleyShackleblock → u/justbeane]

Precisely. Following that train of thought, I would never design something like this myself, and hope others aren't reminded of game hunting as a possible hobby they'd consider... But I really love the design indeed, and the way there's so much to look at, yet it's not too crowded!

[u/RevolutionaryGrape11 → u/KingsleyShackleblock]

What's your opinion on fake taxidermy, using other materials to create something that only looks and feels like it came from a dead animal? It has actually been done before!

[u/KingsleyShackleblock → u/RevolutionaryGrape11]

Hmm, I had to think about that for a while. It's certainly better! I think it depends on your purpose.

If it would be an alternative for a zoo, I would be all for it, as it removes the harm placed on real animals.

If it would be as decoration for a random place, I would be against it: as it still looks and feels like it comes from a dead animal (so not something made from wood, for instance), to me it still pretends dominance over animals that were once alive and free, and I'm against that.

Maybe if it would be clearly fake and it's not just the 'chopped head' but the whole body, like it's art, it might feel different too.

But I guess to me personally it's like you let AI make children porn: sure, it's way better than abusing real children and there are no real children harmed, but I would rather not see the concept of abuse (and in this case, murder for fun) at all. You get what I mean?

[u/RevolutionaryGrape11 → u/KingsleyShackleblock]

I much prefer full-body taxidermy to just the heads, for both real and fake taxidermy. I feel like if you're going to do taxidermy, unless you only have a very small space, you need to give the animal as much respect and presence as you can in how you place it, or at least creativity.

I also do get your point as to why you hate it, even if I'm not nearly as vehement about it, it's an opinion I understand and respect. I don't own any myself currently.

[u/KingsleyShackleblock → u/RevolutionaryGrape11]

Thanks for you reply and your interesting question! What is your own vision on the real thing then? Do you hunt for fun/games yourself?

[u/RevolutionaryGrape11 → u/KingsleyShackleblock]

I prefer people only hunt for either food or to keep the population of animals that reproduce out-of-control in check, and consider taxidermy a way of keeping the animal remembered and still alive in a way in our world even as their soul is in Heaven, a reminder of the animal's tale it lived. Troublesome animals and sanctioned ones in national parks are fair game to me as well, but those are much rarer cases then the norm.

[u/RevolutionaryGrape11 → u/KingsleyShackleblock]

Another thing is taxidermy that is a real animal, but one that wasn't killed, they just found a dead one. There's a taxidermy bear at one of my favorite zoos that got hit by a car.

[u/GusBusDraws]

Love the shark & jackalope!

[u/IH8Miotch → u/GusBusDraws]

Was gonna ask if i saw a Jackalope

[u/mexchiwa → u/GusBusDraws]

The shark and giraffe look like the 3 in 1s though.

[u/GusBusDraws → u/mexchiwa]

Perhaps, but a clever use for them regardless

[u/Quebec00Chaos → u/GusBusDraws]

I was wondering if it really was the jackalope

[u/codespace]

It's really creative and well executed.

[u/Emmarrrrr]

not the globe minibar 😭

[u/xiao88455]

a WA2000?

man, brings back good memories from playing Golden Eye on the Wii

[u/FG42069 → u/xiao88455]

Was looking for this comment. A uniquely outfitted hunter to say the least

[u/J-Feelz → u/xiao88455]

First thing I seen lol

[u/fluffynuckels]

The map is fantastic

[u/Pleasant_Inspection9 → u/fluffynuckels]

I know Mercator does us dirty but ONE STUD COME ON!

[u/Lumpy-Ad-6972 → u/fluffynuckels]

I was looking for this comment. Incredibly well executed at this scale. Very impressive.

[u/Herb_Derb → u/fluffynuckels]

Just don't like the folks in r/MapsWithoutNZ see it

[u/InfiniteOwls2]

[u/spamcloud]

Now you need to build out a desk and a probate lawyer reading off his will to a bunch of malcontent adult children

[u/belac4862]

Is that a Jackalop!?

[u/Lonely_reaper8 → u/belac4862]

Yes lol

[u/belac4862 → u/Lonely_reaper8]

Nice!

[u/ChartInFurch]

I'd want to make little Lego animal butts for the other side lol

[u/BobaBloom9454]

The drinks globe is the best.

[u/Excellent-Practice]

That's straight out of "The Most Dangerous Game." I Iove it. You just need to add a Johnny Thunder minifig

[u/DimiPine]

I hate poachers and hunting for game, but this is a really cool build.

[u/Tenken_Zeta]

I don't know why, but i think this will Fit perfectly on a Resident Evil Lego game...

[u/pathetic-weakling]

Why does the map look like something you'd play Risk on.

[u/rasputinrasputin]

So many cool details, I like the technique on the shark’s eyes, the map and globe/liquor cabinet are super cool too

[u/NikNakskes → u/rasputinrasputin]

The shark is straight from a creator 3 in 1 set of a few years ago. (In case you want to have the shark seperately for yourself)

[u/rasputinrasputin → u/NikNakskes]

Ah you’re right 31088, huh

[u/RevolutionaryGrape11 → u/NikNakskes]

As is the giraffe.

[u/NikNakskes → u/RevolutionaryGrape11]

Indeed it is!

[u/devtek]

/mapswithoutnewzealand

[u/Wotnd]

That’s one of the most stunning builds I’ve seen, the quality of every animal is so good.

[u/MelodyTheElephant]

I love the use of the globe bar cart!! Also the build for the elephant head is awesome!!!

[u/__Becquerel]

Bro made a WA2000

[u/carn1vore → u/__Becquerel]

It looks great, though I’m struggling to understand the revolver and antenna…

[u/Texy]

Nice jackalope

[u/Think-Strike6517]

level of detail is amazing

"This is a lovely room of death.☠️ Take care now, bye bye then!" -Ace Ventura

[u/Puzzles_The_EFO → u/_Danger_Close_]

Ace Ventura's worse nightmare

[u/cubosh]

i am most impressed by that world map - and im sorry to say this may qualify for r/MapsWithoutNZ

[u/vercertorix]

Nah, put an animal in the chair and minifigure heads on the wall.

[u/Rathbane12]

Missing a graboid that broke in the wrong gold’ dern wreckroom.

[u/DeweyJ0nes]

“No animals were harmed during this construction.”

[u/Kind-Honeydew4900]

Awesome looking animals! I was wondering whether you could still adjust the elephants eyes. It will look a lot less surprised about being dead when his eyes or on the side of his head instead.

[u/Cedar-King]

Is that a jackolope?

[u/Fine-Fox-6128]

Love the shark’s head from 31088, awesome work!!

[u/LEGOIdBot → u/Fine-Fox-6128]

31088-1: Deep Sea Creatures [Photo]

[u/Atakir]

I don't agree with big game hunting but this is really well done and gives me Allan Quartermain vibes from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

[u/Many-Hand-7220]

This looks fantastic but isn't Africa a tad small?

[u/praxidike74 → u/Many-Hand-7220]

I was thinking that Australia should be two studs and not one

[u/Pleasant_Inspection9 → u/praxidike74]

They should definitely have at least two

[u/stucky602 → u/praxidike74]

Also get a clip piece and use a hotdog for Japan.

[u/Square-Comfort-1192 → u/Many-Hand-7220]

Must be a eurocentric map projection

[u/Fearless_Teacher_626]

Needs a human head on the wall too.

[u/brmarcum]

I’m extremely impressed with the detail at this scale. Very nice work!

[u/PraiseTheSun42069]

This is cool as hell. Excellent work!

[u/owlbuzz]

World map is fucking genius

[u/little-teatime]

Should make a lego Gaston for it 😄

[u/g_rant421]

Clay puppington’s study

[u/DistractedByCookies]

I can't stand big game hunting, and I also think it's not actually a Lego-suitable subject. HOWEVER, it is really fucking well done. That map is great, the animal heads are creative. I love the cigar, the little model of the sun, teh drinking globe, the bearskin.... It looks exactly like what you'd expect a hunter's room to look like. Great execution!

[u/the_a-train17]

Not the polar bear and elephant :( lol nice build and design though

[u/YDLM]

It's a nice set but can't see LEGO publish it, you know, brand image and all.

[u/Starlight_Penguin]

This is super cool. As a festive and fairly dark touch, you should switch the black stud to a red one on the deer's nose to make it Rudolph.

[u/ScallionMinute6333]

I think this set is amazing and perfectly executed. I would LOVE to purchase the instructions if the actual set never goes to production! Hunting has been a part of our history for centuries. Thank you for showcasing the trophies in such a tasteful and proper way! Again, this set is amazing!

[u/17oClokk]

Christmas present idea: Build that globe and give it to someone who has one of those. Probably not many of you that know something, but i do lol

[u/RudyPu]

Need to put a Gaston Easter egg :D love this

[u/konradconrad]

Wow!

[u/fish_master86]

What's the animal above the white bear?

[u/nerainmakr → u/fish_master86]

The mythical jackalope.

[u/MoreThan2_LessThan21]

I am in awe

[u/TeamScrapyard]

Fing fantastic, Mr. Fox.

[u/gancoskhan]

Marvelous

[u/Just_L-i-v-i-n_]

WOWWWW

[u/trilledc]

Great job

[u/Bright-Dependent6339]

that chair design is 10/10

[u/anbeasley]

Perfect Bond villain lair

[u/littlerelaxation]

Looks like the set to the music video "I got my mind set on you"

[u/killacam925]

This is so good!!!

[u/601Tommyboy]

This is sooo awsome!!👌🏻🥳

[u/USDA_Prime_Yeet]

90s me would never have guess legos would be so expansive

[u/Future-Assist-7559]

I haven’t bought a set in a long time. I’d impulse purchase this!

[u/Bogus_34]

I want to know how to make that bear rug

[u/ARVACODE]

Is that a whip to hold the page?

[u/ProfessionalYam1710]

The bear skin rug is peak! So cool

[u/Vega-Bean]

I recognize that shark, I used to build so many things with "bricksmartworkshop"s videos. Wonder where the guy is now

[u/Goldrushfishing]

This is so sweet, love I t

[u/Ok_Push2550]

Very cool, I like the vibe. One suggestion : Add a xenomorph. Or predator.

[u/fundiedundie]

Mounting a shark head is hilarious.

[u/WitheredUntimely]

lol I clicked in here, the comments aren't disappointing, knew exactly how Reddit would react

"I dunno guys I used to think big game hunting is bad but this guy's Lego diorama is so good I think it's super rad and cool now" -how some of you think this works

[u/InfiniteOwls2]

r/mapswithoutnewzealand

[u/Bastard_of_Brunswick]

The first glance made me feel disgusted. Then I realised that this is all Lego and that this all took a huge amount of work to create. Well done.

[u/illa_t]

Waoh, this is so cool !!

[u/Andrew4568_]

This might be one of the coolests MOCs tbh

[u/Ok-Wish-2640 → u/Andrew4568_]

The taxidermy heads are so cool

[u/Ok-Wish-2640]

Do you have plans build instructions? I’d love to build this. I love it (I obvs don’t agree with the real life concept) but this is a great build!!!

[u/LGreyS]

Nice... only thing missing is Johnny Thunder sitting there with a cigar and drink.

[u/ElSquibbonator → u/LGreyS]

It seems more like the kind of place Mr. Hates/Slyboots/Lord Sinister would have.

[u/Guilty-Cell-833]

Greenwald, hit the lights!!!

[u/mexicat2000]

Extremely well done. 👍 kudos

[u/Friendly_Prize_868]

You say they’re a big game hunter, but I don’t even see Mario or Sonic in there. 😝

Awful jokes aside, this is really cool 😁

[u/darth_garbee]

Noooooo ooonnneee’s slick as Gaston! No one’s quick as Gaston!

[u/djdiphenhydramine]

THIS IS A LOVELY ROOM OF DEATH!!!

Seriously though, this is so good.

[u/maulsparvral]

It looks great, I love the details! The setting really reminds me of the show Morel Orel

[u/Cautious-Rabbit-5493]

Do you have a banana for scale

[u/WormLivesMatter]

Is that a joackalope

[u/tiny_chaotic_evil]

the tiny orrery on top of the bookshelf is awesome xD

[u/scottishdrunkard]

It’s always a globe that hides alcohol.

[u/p4x4boy]

living the life, i see. fantastic build.

[u/Future-Assist-7559]

This is so cool

[u/DefinitionElegant685]

Nice!!!

[u/RappingFlatulence]

Very cool! Great attention to detail!

[u/Error-451]

I love the tiny sun/earth model above the bookshelf. So many great little details!

[u/Aoiboshi]

I need this for my Moral Orel MOC

[u/Cowman_Gaming]

I love it! The safe in the cabinet is a nice touch. There are so many wonderful details to enjoy

[u/FishGoldenLite]

I really like the world map. Super clever.

[u/PassengerNo6231]

I love the jackalope model! (Phote 12)

[u/tragedyfish]

The heads sourced from actual sets are a nice touch.

[u/tragedyfish]

That chair is phenomenal.

[u/Goatcheeze1]

PETA does not approve

[u/Thescubadave]

Love it!

[u/Senyuret]

Awesome build lol. Next lvl

[u/map2photo]

I want to build this so badly now. Bookmarking!

[u/SoapBrick_214]

a lot of cool snot techniques here

[u/Delicious_Piece_6272]

Well done! Incredible work.

[u/Mean-Criticism-8515]

Had me at the jackalope

[u/No-Ambition7750]

Love the shark.

[u/Castraphinias]

Dang that's just so cool. I'm so envious of the talent

[u/Average-Fan-Of-Tf2]

The globe oddly enough reminds me of the one in Cube Escape Paradox

[u/No-Willingness-5982]

Is that a WAAAA 2000 on the wall👀

[u/VeenaColada]

I love the globe

[u/GotSomeUpdogOnUrFace]

The globe bar thing should be a set itself.

[u/HighLord-Skeletor]

I love it

[u/indigrow]

Smashing

[u/Flimsy_Nebula_299]

Amazing

[u/Ok-Alarm7257]

So much brittle brown

[u/wynters387]

Seems like a room Kraven the Hunter would have

[u/YOUTUBEFREEKYOYO]

Wow the whip as a book marks clever

[u/LuckyLemans]

Wow! Great job!

[u/No_Analyst_7359]

I have the set that the shark’s head came from

[u/SpooktheGod]

From ace ventura 2?

[u/S3C3C]

Love it!!! The bear skin rug is awesome!

[u/SlightlySaficFanGrl]

Love this.

[u/engrish_is_hard00]

Suggestions

Add:

Xenomorph head And

Predator mask

[u/PM_me_punanis]

I love the bear rug! Remind me of my Newf when she decides to splay on the ground like a freaking rug. Always in the middle of the room or right by a doorway too. Just to be REALLY in the way.

[u/the_etc_try_3]

The jackalope is a fun touch, as is the bar hidden inside the globe. Is this Miniland scale, or?

[u/FuckYouDontLookAtMe]

This is so fucking sick man

[u/Drewdiniskirino]

Nothing wrong at all; this is a lovely room of death!

Take care, now. Bye bye, then.

[u/Gr33nJ0k3r13]

Really cool but your rifle looks like an air rifle i‘d rework it to be a double barrel as that is what most elephant rifles are either h&h bolt action or 700 double barrel side by side

[u/batchet360]

great work

[u/ZorinKel]

Love the jackalope!

[u/Wild_Reserve_6230]

[u/ThinkLettuce7100]

Man this is fantastic!

[u/Fuzzy_Bumblebee5300]

Coolest moc ever 

[u/Necessary-Shop-7885]

I just want to know how to make the chair. Instructions now!
