[@SW_Bricks]

Cult bricks is SOO good! I'm so excited to get more from him! Great review!

[@Goldfyre]

Thanks! His stuff is unbelievably clean

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

2:07 I'd reverse the 1×2 tiles for that banner for a more even checkerboard look. So from left to right, top to bottom have it black ,blue, blue, black. So there's a blue tile over the black print and a black tile over the blue half of that 1×3 "shield" tile.

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

Or simply reverse the two top tiles so the entire left half length is black and the entire right half length is blue from top to bottom.

[@Goldfyre]

Ooo, good idea. I'll try that out.

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

@@Goldfyre Another thing you can try which will slim down the thickness of your tapestry and make it look more realistic, would be replacing the plate that's holding all the pieces together with two 2×2 round plates with rounded bottoms (part number 2654 "Boat Stud") in either black or blue. Could also use the modified 1×2 plate with two clips (part no. 60470 "Horizontal grip") in black or blue or two 1×1 modified plates with clip (part no. 61252 "Horizontal Grip") in black and blue to match, at the top of your tapestry and clip it to a horizontal bar to resemble a properly hung tapestry. For even more added realism, you can get your tapestry to "wave" in the wind with three simple pieces, the 1×4H antenna (part no. 3957), Technic ½ pin with stud (part no. 4274 without friction ridges), and 1×1 brick with Technic hole (part no. 6541). Attach the antenna to the stud on the ½ pin, put that pin the brick with hole, clip your tapestry to the now horizontally positioned antenna, and you've got a dangling tapestry that will sway when air is blown on it or when the MOC is jostled.

I’m pretty sceptical about customs, but these are just beautiful! The prints on the viking helms especially 🔥🔥

[@Snowtrooperstuds]

I got to get some of those Viking helmets for my Viking king

[@Goldfyre]

The viking helmets are so beautiful! I was a big skeptic when it came to customs but the style of these are right up my alley.

[@haystacks6181]

Honestly Cult Bricks is the only custom bricks store I like. Cool to see this vid!

[@Ogre6972]

Have you checked out Ktown Bricks? Their pad printed items are right up there, too. Lots of highly detailed UV prints, too.

[@bricksdarklighter5597]

I discovered him more or less by accident while scrolling through instagram. I ordered the helmets and some other stuff and it's just spectacular. And I totally agree with what you said - the fact that you wouldn't even notice that it's not lego (like some of those excessive 360 degrees leg prints) is what really sets this apart from some of the other 3rd party sellers.

[@Goldfyre]

That's the same way i found out about his stuff! I totally agree about the 360 leg prints. It's just too much imo

[@medievalchameleon102]

Even thought this seems like a sponsored video respect especially for voicing a lot of folks at home thoughts. We need more designers like these

[@seankart4459]

These look awesome! I'll definitely be trying to get some of these for my army! Lovering the videos your putting out, this has quickly become my favorite lego KZbin channel, keep up the great work!!

[@Goldfyre]

Thank you! That means so much to hear :)

[@hunterganson7560]

This has quickly become my favorite Lego channel. Keep up the good videos!

[@Goldfyre]

Thank you! that really means alot :)

[@doriandaykin2747]

Wow, These helmets really do look official! I love it!

[@jameswestman4745]

No, thank you! It's nice to have a full medieval lego youtube channel available! Now if we could only have someone only do pirates!

[@Goldfyre]

@ourtoyworld & @brickingupbrad have some really great pirates videos! I'm super tempted to get into pirates but it's probably best for my wallet if I don't 😂

[@santiagomalagon6345]

If he would use the old shield designs from the 2005 Vikings sets it would be so cool.

[@epsfilms213]

This is great information! Now I know where to get some awesome new Lego products and I can trust that they are good! Keep up the great work!❤

[@MNeuenswander]

Those are really nice helmets. Great for a few leaders, especially for Vikings

[@tuttifuknfruity]

This is brilliant. I'll definitely be ordering some of these. Amazing

[@CreepyBanana]

Damn, the prints look really good!

[@Caladon]

Realy nice custom bits il keep an eye for the remake dragon shields

[@clonecommandoproductions]

Those are awesome and love to see the black ravens

[@loveLegocastle]

Love your videos! Great minifig customs man!

[@Goldfyre]

Thank you so much! 😁

[@nekrossan9048]

Your army building series inspired me to create my own army. A Kingdom of the Dwarves and i really enjoy how it look so far. Love your work and thx for great wideos.

[@GOLDENTACOO]

Was looking forward to this one!

[@pupelee]

Usually i don’t like sponsored vids, but this is something different! The parts are quality and made with love for lego. Too bad you couldn’t give us a discount coupon, would have been a nice christmas present for the community

[@gogossake]

I dont mind about the prices, quality is here and thats all about i care, might take few pieces for my black falcon and lion knights

[@Pman190]

The Byzantine Empire holds a special place in my heart when it comes to crafting Lego castles and delving into medieval Lego sets. Exploring the history of the Byzantine Empire adds an extra layer of fascination to my creative endeavors. One interesting fact is that they had a secret weapon called "Greek fire," a highly flammable and mysterious substance used in naval warfare. Its composition remains a historical mystery to this day. Additionally, Byzantine emperors sometimes employed eunuchs as high-ranking officials, a practice not common in many other civilizations. Basil II, also known as Basil II the Bulgar Slayer, ruled the Byzantine Empire from 976 to 1025. Here are some fun facts about him: Military Victories: Basil II achieved significant military success, particularly against the Bulgarians. He earned the title "Bulgar Slayer" due to his victories in the Balkans. Blinding of 15,000 Prisoners: After a decisive victory over the Bulgarians in 1014, Basil II reportedly ordered the blinding of 15,000 prisoners. The brutality of this act highlighted his ruthless approach to quelling revolts. Long Reign: Basil II's reign was one of the longest in Byzantine history, spanning nearly 50 years. His rule contributed to the stability and expansion of the empire. Economic Prosperity: Despite his military focus, Basil II also paid attention to economic matters. The Byzantine Empire experienced relative prosperity during his reign, fostering trade and economic growth. No Heirs: One notable aspect is that Basil II did not have any children, and his death led to a succession crisis. This contributed to the decline of the Byzantine Empire in the years following his rule.

[@Narses_the_aremnian]

I love it too

[@aasl6154]

LOVE YOUR VIDEO !!! no really this is amazing video and advice. From your mod ! xD

[@perl_kristi23]

This might help me in the future.

[@an8790]

I just bought 4 items about 90 minutes ago. The viking shields sold out so quickly so I'm glad that I had the release date in my calendar. I found Cult Bricks through this video, and I am glad I did, with how hard it is to find variation in viking shields.

[@zachallan7545]

These look awesome!

[@LexStanton-hj2gy]

I’m gonna get some for Christmas thank you showing them off have a wonderful day 😊

[@Goldfyre]

I hope you have a nice day aswell! 😁

[@adamaul]

Dang my youtube idol and inspiration is posting videos at the same time as me! Lol Seriously enjoy your videos man!

[@Goldfyre]

Thanks man, i love making these so i'm glad people out there enjoy watching em

[@spoutnik7703]

amazing quality !

[@danielwilliamson6180]

I like the Viking Helmets. I've got a Series Viking minifigure.

[@daniel.11692]

Thanks for showing them. The silver trim helm is just great. While buying from cult bricks would be unviable, I'll grab some helms and tiles and try painting/ decaling them.

[@Random_person99]

This is nice it's official nice quality Lego

[@Bellum-tl5ko]

Definitely gonna have to pick up some of the falcon armour looks amazing

[@Goldfyre]

I love the print so much

[@cowboydup]

I wonder if he could sell sticker to print conversion kits for sets. Ill bet if he sold a package including a print version of every sticker in the upcoming medieval market village, alot of people would buy it

[@matthewguarna2975]

I've bought some viking helmets around six months ago and I can only say amazing things about them. They're peak quality

[@user-bo5od5lp9c]

hi man beautiful video keep going like thisssssss! and what do you think abaut brick waqrriors?

[@Raventommm]

Cultbricks is so awesome! Ive ordered a few of the rounded black falcon shields. They are so so so beautifull! My qaurd has them. I wish he restocks the new blue ones with spikes. I also have the tiles. He delivers very fast and the price is fair for the work. I have to order some parts for my village. Cultbricks is the best! There is also something you would like to see. Its a lego window with a medieval paint on. Not from cultbricks but i think you would love it!

[@Ogre6972]

Brick Warriors has stained glass window inserts. Currently has Black Falcons, Lion Knights, and the Dragon Knights from "Kingdoms". Victor says he will be adding the "Kingdoms" Lion knights to the assortment, as well.

[@Goldfyre]

I just saw these actually and i have to say they look great!

[@WolfBrickz]

[@kl625]

I have a new favorite KZbinr 👍

[@Coyote_Films]

Sad that there isn’t a black on silver print for the great helm. Would’ve been a good helmet to add to my black falcon army.

[@atmopsherepeople]

Best prints I've ever seen. Unfortunately, almost all of his castle items are sold out😢

[@Mischievous_Moth]

I'm working on a moc that could really use some of these for the adventurers and whatnot.

[@Jadoon_Marshmallow]

Quick Question! Whenever you get a set, do you keep all the minifig parts in a sorted area and custom build your minifigs? Also, are there any cheap, medieval sets that you recommend?

[@paulridings6551]

I wish there were some of the black falcon printed items in pearl dark grey.

[@Goldfyre]

Yeah i imagine those would end up being way more expensive due to the fact that they aren't on PAB. Hopefully LEGO brings them back into production soon

[@cleveland_brown_skylander]

For the black falcon chestplate you should not use the black falcon torso instead use a regular torso so you have an extra black falcon

[@wenix4934]

👍❤

[@quadeong7453]

Funny thing is, you're kinds describing medieval normandy with them being the descendants of vikings.

[@Ogre6972]

Absolutely BANGER products. Alas, they don't ship to Canada, so I cannot partake of their awesomeness. :(

[@manifestman132]

I also think it looks better when its more in Lego style it just doesn’t fit when its more realistic. Early brickmania was more Legoized then the new stuff same with some brickarms.

[@facundomanuelsaravia9794]

This is the only way to have an epic lego castle army. It's understandable that it has that price yet it is a crude reality😥

[@gasonfeist7238]

Super cool stuff but can't afford $33 shipping for a few helmets. Most of these great custom printers are overseas from the U.S.

[@kunu1990]

Yeah I'm on the same page, I'd only be using these types of parts for specialty minifigures like kings and one off characters

[@Goldfyre]

They work great for specialty figs.

[@kunu1990]

@@Goldfyre definitely helps distinguish them from normal castle folk

[@Snowtrooperstuds]

I plan on picking up a black helmet with the silver accent and the gold and silver Viking helmet for my Viking king

[@Goldfyre]

Nice!

[@user-ks8yk8kc6s]

Do you by any chance know, when they will restock the shields and helmets?

[@Goldfyre]

There should be a restock at the end of this month

[@skeletotron]

Hello, do they restock? Because of now their are no viking helmets in stock sadly.

[@Goldfyre]

There should be another restock coming soon! You can sign up for email notifications on his site and it will let you know when a restock is happening.

[@MrHangman56]

do you know of anyone who makes and sells classic space minifigues?

[@Snowtrooperstuds]

Do you know if these are available in uk 🇬🇧

[@Ogre6972]

Yes, Cult Bricks ships to the UK.

[@Snowtrooperstuds]

@@Ogre6972 thank goodness 😅

[@mikepalmer392]

Checked it out something is off unless I didn't get the order right it showed I met the price having to get more than 4 items showes I've meet the order then at the same time it says the price and order doesn't match I hope to get these soon there what I need for my figures so badly

[@Goldfyre]

I'm sorry i don't quite understand?

[@mikepalmer392]

@Goldfyre I just looked again on what was wrong and it showed I had to have an order 25.00 or over for me to have my order or the shipping won't work my God the total amount is over 60 bucks for 5 or 6 items I guess there kinda worth it though?

[@TonyMontanaDS]

I bought those tile signs from Aliexpress. So many people selling them. Are you sure he created those?

[@Ogre6972]

Yes, he did. The ones from Ali Express are cheap, crappy knockoffs.

[@Goldfyre]

All of the stuff he sells is his own design. I'm not very familiar with aliexpress but i am assuming that people on there are knocking off him and other original creators/artists.

[@pinobluevogel6458]

The customs look great, but they are all out of stock. Apart from being a bit overpriced, having them for actual sale might help promote the product more than anything else >.

[@Goldfyre]

He should be having a restock this month!

[@pinobluevogel6458]

@@Goldfyre Sweet, Ill keep checking the site. Thanks for the tip regardless!

[@Loyror]

I know that custom prints are really popular in the US, and sure, lots of it looks nice. I can't help but ending up thinking it's cheating though. Going beyond the original product kind of takes away the limitations that feed my creativity. I understand that other's like customs, but not my forte.

[@Goldfyre]

I definitely get where you are coming from and actually agree to some extent. However i really like this style of printing that still feels "lego-ish"

[@yigaboii2254]

Orc video

[@Goldfyre]

soonish lol, i'm trying to decide what sets to include in the first episode :)

[@yigaboii2254]

@@Goldfyre no worrie also have any tips for army building the blue coats

[@mrmola3295]

They look ok, but to me it just spoils the fun of making purist customs. Looking for the perfect pieces for a moc is half the fun.

[@Goldfyre]

Purist customs are my jam as well but i can't deny how much i love these. Searching on Bricklink for the perfect part is a big part of the joy i get from making customs.
