Husbandry Challenge - Mystic Isle

[Halhi 141]

In times of famine and food shortages, most Avalonians stayed in Avalonia, peacefully tilling their fields, harvesting crops, or hunting animals.

Gremlon and Elisa, however, decided to deal with the food shortages in a different way. As such, they went to a small isle in Nocturnus...

...to raid the homes of the evil Nocturnians to get food for the more-deserving Avalonians!

I decided to take a bit of a different approach to the challenge, as you can see . Note that though I'm an Avalonian, this MOC is set in Nocturnus - hence the colors and fairly dark overall look.

Thanks for viewing! You can see more pics in the flickr album.

Very nice build, that rock work is excellent, the unusual coloured ground looks cool and the house itself is superb! However, I think it does not a good entry at all, because the whole build has four food parts and zero builds representing food or whatever related to the challenge. Great build nonetheless

Great build, but maybe the water can have a bit of blue

Very nice build Halhi! The rockwork is superb and the colors for the ground work wonderfully

Thanks! Well, the challenge said that you could show your character procuring food somehow; stealing all the food from houses in Nocturnus works from what I could see, even if it may not be the most conventional approach to the challenge

Thanks! I decided to go with clear water since I thought blue would look odd next to the blue of the landscape. With the lighting, the clear water has a slight yellowish tint, which I thought looked nice and appropriate for Nocturnus.

Nice work Halhi! I've always been a fan of blue, and I'd do it myself sometime if I had the pieces for it. The landscape is very eyecatching and the house is superb as usual.

Very nice build and interesting concept ( ), Halhi, fantastic job on the angles on the walls and roof! Excellent rock-work and landscaping as well, and neat little dock in the corner!

[Lord Vladivus]

Love the colours on this- the landscape is great! Cool idea for the challenge too!

[Graham Gidman]

Fantastic work! Like I said on Flickr, I really like those blues.

[Brick Man Studios]

Pretty good !

Awesome work dude ! Love the roof !

Nice moc there. Good twist on the challenge. Nice part use on the dock and im digging the blue ground.

[Blufiji]

The colors are nice no doubt but the dock really stands out here.

[Jorrith]

What a fantastic little house, but the color usage is particulary great!

[Bregir]

What a wonderful take on the challenge! Both the landscaping and the building is brilliant and full of great techniques. (Although I wonder how stable that bridge technique is )

It is a very "alternative" way to procure foods, and I sure hope the inhabitants are not of the darkest kinds of Nocturnus, should they find out they are being robbed!

[Spader]

As I said on Flickr, very nice color scheme, and overall build here.

Gorgeous build! The dock and stairs leading to the house are a great touch, and I like the window design you used here, it makes good use of those common dark brown slopes

The blue in the landscape looks lovely as well

[Simon_S]

Nice work! The rockwork, all the greebles in the house and of course the unusual choice of colours (we already saw them in a lot of DC's builds, but it still looks good) make this a great build.

[Gideon]

Unexpected entry, but very nice!

I like the windows in the stone wall a lot

[Gunman]

I really like that blue in the landscaping :) Great house also mate...!
