LittleJohn Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Previously: Part 3 Turning The Mark Now that they believed they had conclusive proof of Malek's treason, the Desert King authorized his execution. Since Malek was still abroad in Kaliphlin, an assassin was hired to finish him as quickly and quietly as possible. The assassin found Malek collecting taxes from vendors in a market, and positioned himself on the roof of a nearby house, tying up the lady who was sitting there. Gideon was walking along the bustling Market street, when he noticed a crossbow pointing out from behind one of the poles that held the flags. It was pointing right at the official just in front of him. With lightning reflexes, he dove at the official, knocking him to the side and out of danger for the moment. The ruckus drew Erudhalion's attention, and he quickly spotted the assassin. It appeared he wasn't the only one, as a formidable lady was already at the top of the stairs, and had her sword half-drawn. Realizing he had been spotted, the assassin turned and drew his sword, ready to fight. By now, the Captain of the guard had also spotted him, and was about to strike him down, but was too slow, as the woman had already disarmed the man. The guards quickly came, tied him up, and escorted him to the city jail. The official thanked Gideon, the Lady, and Erudhalion profusely for saving his life. The lady then offered to accompany him to a safe location in case any more attempts were made on his life. To be continued...

Graham Gidman Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Man, I love that cobblestone! And the colors are great... Really, really well done! Quote
TitusV Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Lovely scene, and that White house/stairs is just awesome Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Who's the Lady eh? Nice build! This is shaping up to be a cool collab! Quote
Simon_S Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Very nice, I like how the market turned out ! All the different stalls and details, all the activity looks pretty cool. As for advice I can say this: I think dark green doesn't really fit in a middle east Kaliphlin layout... but that's most probably just me or my conception that a middle east MOC should contain mostly vibrant and warm colours. I would have liked to see it replaced with orange or maybe even medium blue / azure (which would give a good contrast to all the red, orange, etc. in the build). The wall and the little white house work perfectly as surrounding for the market. There are some very nice textures in there, as there are on the ground. Great job all around Edited January 20, 2016 by Simon_S Quote
Kai NRG Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Very nice and lively scene! The market stalls are really neat as is the house in the corner! The wall is great as well, feels suitably bulky and sturdy! Quote

Spader Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 I love the market detailing, and you do a nice job portraying the sandstone. Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Great market place ! I like those kind of Kaliphlinite markets ! Suspected of treason, Malek is now near to enter in the rebellion against the Desert King ! Great story ! And great collab ! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Those flag strings are tremendous Great wall and crowded market as well, you have a nice variety of vendors and goods The base plate layering is excellent too Quote

Blufiji Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 What an excellently textured and lively build. I do agree with an above statement that dark green doesnt go with this build, but nonetheless, its great work as is. Quote
SarahJoy Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Brilliant build! So lively and bustling, and so many great details to enjoy throughout the build. I particularly like the banners and the white house. Quote
Gideon Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Excellent scene with so many details and things going on! My favorite part is probably that small white house. Great to see that my sigfig got to be part of the story as well Quote
