frumpy Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Hi All, I've had the builds done for this part of Sebastian's story completed and online months ago but only just managed to get the story complete (credit to my wife who does the writing). Anyway, hope you enjoy. Story "Georgia, he's just not a farmer. At least not yet. We both know he wants something more from life, to get out in the world, to be a part of something bigger," Tomas sighed as he caught the look of dismay cross his wife's face. "But Tomas, you and I both know that the world can be a dangerous place. Soldiering was what drove you here to seek a peaceful life. This was the life we wanted for our family. I'm sorry that I was only able to give us one son, but he is all the family we have and I don't want to risk losing him," Georgia pleaded, feeling chilled to the bone despite the blazing fire at her back. Tomas spoke softly now, looking deep into his wife's eyes. "You have nothing to be sorry for. Our life has been a wonderful blessing, but Sebastian must have his own life. He deserves the chance to make his own happiness and if that means leaving the farm, then we must accept that." Georgia bowed her head in silent acceptance. It seemed that her son would soon be on his way to the nearby barracks to pursue the life of a squire. She only hoped that he would serve a knight worthy of his kind nature. ********************** The day of Sebastian's departure dawned bright and sunny, mirroring the boy's mood as he struggled to contain his excitement. This was it, time for his story to begin, to discover what fate had in store for him. A sudden pang of sadness hit him as he farewelled his parents, but it was soon quelled by the eager barks of Hugo, his travelling companion. Armed with an old sword that had belonged to his father and carrying some well worn armour amongst his meagre possessions, Sebastian set off for Alnwick Barracks, only a couple of days walk, but still further than he had ever been from home.

Aaron Gomez Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Nice details, especially the armor in the chest! Quote
MiloNelsiano Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Very nice build. I was quite excited to see you join avalonia after you had finished your modular castle, and then a little disappointed when you disappeared after that, but it's great to see you back. Both builds look great, and I really like all the little details everywhere, but I'd like to see an overall shot of the second. Your wife's storytelling is also great! Looking forward to more! Quote
TenorPenny Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 A boy setting off with his trusty dog. And chicken. I approve. Quote
Kai NRG Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Very nice pair of builds, especially the first one - lots of neat touches to look at! I especially like those curtains! Great mid-walk shot at the end too! Quote
Blufiji Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 I would love to see more of that house in full, but a eye catching series of builds nonetheless. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 Fine build - I like the interior of the first picture a lot! Quote

frumpy Posted September 27, 2015 Author Posted September 27, 2015 Both builds are very nice - but I will echo the request for an overview shot of the second. Will be looking forward to following the story further! It is the same build from my previous part of the story. Just new minifig placements. Here is the full pic from the previous build. Quote

Jacob Nion Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Wonderful new part of your story. I really like how you start the story at the very beginning instead of making your character directly an established lord. The builds are lovely. Quote
Adair Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I like that color-scheme! So tans are not limited to Kaliphlin. Quote
