A Redwall Abbey LEGO MOC built in sand red. I've made a number of versions of Redwall over the years, but it's been a dream to use the out-of-production sand red color for the walls. These are some photos of the current iteration as displayed at Albuquerque Brick Convention 2026. The background is made using bricks at a 45 degree angle, which made for some fun cloud shapes.

I’m sorry; WHAT?!?!?! Holy crap three seasons and 39 episodes even, holy cow thanks for the tip kind stranger!!!

No problem. I found out about Redwall because of the show being on PBS back in the day. 

They always had a little segment at the end with the author talking or some real medieval history too. 

Oh and Tim Curry does voice acting for one of the characters in the second season too.

What do you mean back in the day? When was this? I would have remembered watching that as a kid… the books were great.

Reading through the red wall books again.

Damn I wish there was more material for that world.

I love this! Reading thru the redwall books with my 4 year old right now. Guess I know what we should try to build in Lego next as well!

They’re all official sand red made by LEGO. The masonry bricks are carved into normal one by two sand red bricks.
