SilentWolf Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Previous Builds Intro: Silent Wolf FB: "Flying Colt" Ch1 CatA: Ahoy, Fishermen! FB: Back at the Ranch... Silent Wolf and his friends spent a week with the natives. They were hosted by the village. During this time, they learned some of the information about this land. One of the surprising things they learned was that the village had been visited years ago by other men like the Corlanders. They discovered this when they heard the natives speaking some words that they recognized from their merchant and military missions in the Old World. The natives told Micah and his friends that the previous visitors had come a long time ago. Only the most elderly remembered them. The natives declared that the visitors had been crazy which is why they never came back. The visitors enjoyed spending their time inside the earth. Only crazy people go inside the earth, because every smart person knows it is dangerous. When Micah asked, no one was willing to show them where the hole into the earth was. Later, one of the young natives who was called Hanska told them that though the tribe was afraid of the hole in the ground and the loud noises that came out of it, he had been inside before. He would be willing to lead them there. Leaving Caleb with the ship, Micah, George, William and Arthur followed Hanska through the forest. A girl from the tribe who apparently was interested in Hanska followed the group from a distance. After walking for about an hour, they saw a large rock jutting out of the ground. As they moved torward it, they scared up what appeared to be a pig just like the ones they had back in the Old World. Haska told them they had been left by the former strangers and had grown quite wild and populous on the island. Upon arriving at the rock mound, Haska pulled the vegetation aside that blocked a tiny entrance into a narrow cave. The men lit the three torches they had brought and squeezed one by one through the opening. Descending into the cave, they saw a light up ahead. When Micah walked into a room of the cave, he saw a tiny rowboat sized opening that revealed that this cave opened into the ocean. Then he saw it! Chests and chests full of something! If the one that was broken up was any indication, it was a hidden treasure that had rested their for the last seventy years. They were all shocked! An overview of the MOC: Quote
blackdeathgr Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Excellent idea and a nice implementation!!! Especially the point where you explain the presence of pigs in the island is really well thought of! Not that Corries need any more gold after this month's MRCA...! P.S: I use this middle part that holds the golden coins as treasure part, myself too Quote
Captain Dee Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Ah... a return to the days of classic pirates and hidden gold... Interesting story and good job building the cave into the base. The location looks pretty remote and the story of the pig is realistic. The lighting of the torch is really good in the one pic. The landscape is fairly basic but you have some nice terrain variation. Overall it's a nice expansive build. Quote
CelesAurivern Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Not that Corries need any more gold after this month's MRCA...! Yes, we do! Someone needs to make up for the income not earned by adventurer bums like Lenny :p Quote
TitusV Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 great vegetation, I like the underground part! Quote
Puvel Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Great idea! The story is well written and the build is nicely executed, well done! Quote

The landscape is fairly basic but you have some nice terrain variation. Overall it's a nice expansive build. Somebody had to do the classic hidden treasure. I figured I might as well. This was my first attempt at a layered moc like this as well as my first attempt at landscaping. I do look forward to improving as I go and would value any specific pointers to improve it. great vegetation, I like the underground part! The underground did turn out the best I felt. Especially once I added the lighting which created a sense of dark vs. light like one would expect in a cave. Quote
