Emma Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Into the Nestlands The Nestlands Insurgency (WZ3:G15) For the Desert King! The Desert King is steadily drawing more and more of Kaliphlin under his wing. He has sent several troops into the Northern Nestland region to quell the fighting between the Nestland Clans and Ulandian invaders: they will declare for the King, or they will perish in the dense forests. A band of mountain mummies comes upon some Ulandian men. The Desert King Commander calls out ahead to the approaching soldiers “The Desert King is your rightful ruler! He is just and merciful - will you yield this land peacefully and serve him?” Slinking behind his troops, the Ulandian Commander cries back, “Goodness, no! What silly nonsense. Men, go kill those dead thingies!” He continues to creep away. “I’ll go fetch some water from that lovely stream back there to quench you thirst once the job is done…” Suffice to say, the victory went to the Desert King that day .

Jacob Nion Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 What a bunch of cowards! Nice entry, I really like the jungle feeling and the rockwork. Quote
LittleJohn Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Great story! Nice plants and rockwork too Quote
Adair Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Great foliage and nice rockwork, if the colors are a bit off... great job! Quote
Blufiji Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 The landscaping is nice, the lazy commander made me laugh. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Landscape and colours come out fantastically well. Quote
Balbo Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Amazing work I love the colour scheme and the foliage . The story is very nice, too! Quote
Kai NRG Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Some nice landscaping work here, although unlike Balbo I'm not completely sure about green and tan - vegetation doesn't usually grow too well in sand from what I understand! The commander's story is amusing, although such cowards will without doubt be punished severely! Quote
MiloNelsiano Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 I think it has a very unique look with a great color scheme. Though obviously vegetation doesnt usually grow well in sand there are exceptions. I dont know exactly what Emma was going for here but for example: http://beauty-places.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Desert-Oasis-Wallpaper.jpg Quote
MassEditor Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Wonderful landscaping and vegetation, those tan/dark tan rocks look perfectly like worn sandstone pillars. I think the vegetation blends in nicely with the sandstone. Besides, what really looks out of place when it comes to fantasy landscaping? Definitely another superb entry for the Desert King! Quote
gedren_y Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Nice. Either way those Ulandians will be dead. Quote
soccerkid6 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Great build,, per usual The composition is excellent, I particularly like the rock spires and the little waterfall Quote
Emma Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the comments and feedback everyone. With regards to the colour choice for the rock-work, when I read "light colored stone" and then look through some of gendren_y's Nestland builds - tan was what sort of stuck in my head, while picturing a landscape sort of something like this. Though it does work quite well as a desolate desert-y area with the green stuff removed, lol. Nice. Either way those Ulandians will be dead. You'd think after occupying the area for a bit, they would have learned not to drink the water Edited April 1, 2015 by Emma Quote
