Elostirion Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 It's harvesting season in Bardo on An Toli. Eager workers are doing their business and collect the cotton. Which is then transported to the manufacturing facilities. Especially to those of MCTC itself, like the huge one in Weelond. Will this ball of cotton become a shirt? Or a pair of trousers? Who knows, who knows... Lady Estrella and her niece Clara enjoy the flowers in the garden. Estrella once demanded that small garden, to have some deviation from the ever-white cotton fields. Clara however is always keen on learning new details. "How is that flower called?", "Why does cotton not grow on trees like apples?", "How did MCTC become so rich", "Why don't we build ships that can fly like birds?". Lady Estrella smiled and just thought to herself "you silly little girl". This poor guy is running away in pure horror. He must have seen something incredibly terrifying. Or from someone... Does he have an upaid debt? Or has committed some minor crime? Or maybe he has done nothing wrong at all, like others before him? Who knows, but fleeing seems an appropriate response anyway. The fields are in full growth, the cotton is ready. Believe it or not, Bardo is not only known for its Musicians, but also for its huge cotton plantations. Quote
TitusV Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Neat build, I like the sight of all that cotton, and the irrigation-canals are a nice touch! Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Wow ! you are completing Kai's build in an excellent way ! Great job ! This poor guy fleeing Uncle's inspection made me giggle. Quote
Ayrlego Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Another fantastic build! Love the way your canals match Kai's. Great job! Quote
Kai NRG Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Great second (or fourth) installment here Elostirion, I love what you've done with the canal and all that cotton is beautiful! The other flowers liven it up really nicely as well, and the guy running away from Uncle is spot on. Quote
Capt Wolf Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Uncle's reputation precedes him! I'd run away, too. I love the irregularity of the irrigation ditches in this build. Nice work all around! Quote
Phadeout Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 really nice job, the cotton fields are great, the garden is lovely, well written and well presented as usual. Top notch. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Another fine cotton plantation. Sadly, I didn't get the concept of the "cotton challenge". Still, it is a fine cotton plantation. Quote
Exetrius Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 All those rows of cotton... their slight irregularity and that of the channels gives it a very realistic look! Also, I really like the cobble road, great balance between studs and tiles. Nice cart, too! Quote
SilentWolf Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 I love the minifigure posing. It does a great job of bringing the build to life. The flower garden is a nice touch. Thought the most impressive part is the sheer quantity of cotton you pulled off. The overall view makes it feel like I'm looking at the beginning of acres and acres of cotton. Quote
