Torgar Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 The civil war in Nocturnus has been terrible for business. The Kazzar, still loyal to Lord Ssilyrrlith, have decided to flee Nocturnus and the tyranny of the Black Spire. They are currently traveling along the Old Forest Road on the way to Avalonia, where they hope to find better trading opportunities.

robuko Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Ooooh lovely. That tree is amazing. And I am in pure envy of your red leaves! Nice technique on the wagon sides,it looks great. Quote
DrColossus Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 DAT TREE. This is really lovely, everything comes together so well. Even the caravan wagons look right for the setting! Quote
narbilu Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 What a fantastic tree... You are welcome to visit Hemresa. Quote
MKJoshA Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Amazing work on the sides of those wagons! Are they just being held by gravity? Quote
Garmadon Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Excellent build, Torgar, especially that tree Great design for the wagons as well, and awesome landscaping Quote
Hobbythom Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 The wagons are the highlight of this, by itself really great, build. The angled set up and the colour contrasts really bring something to the scene. Quote
Gunman Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Amazing work Torgar.... Lovely MOC excellent tree.... You rock! Quote
HammerBro Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Wow, Torgar! The wagons are excellent and I love the landscaping from the ground to the water! And the tree….I'm speechless. Amazing build with tons of great angles! Quote
qiadris Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Great build, amazing wagons! +1 to all claims Quote
Kai NRG Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Wow! Fantastic build, that tree is amazing and the rest of the landscaping is superb as well! Very nice carriages as well, particularly the front one! +1 DoH! Quote
Gideon Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Wonderful build! I especially like the tree and the wagons, although they look a bit large to be pulled by one horse each? UoP +1 for the claimed credits. Quote
nivremis Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Love the caravans, excellent building there. Fits right into the scenery too Quote
The Architect Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 I love that tree and the wagon technique. Absolutely stunning. Quote
gedren_y Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Wonderfully swampy. UoP DoH +1 on all claims. Quote
Torgar Posted March 4, 2014 Author Posted March 4, 2014 Ooooh lovely. That tree is amazing. And I am in pure envy of your red leaves! Nice technique on the wagon sides,it looks great. Thanks robuko! DAT TREE. This is really lovely, everything comes together so well. Even the caravan wagons look right for the setting! Thanks Drcolossus! What a fantastic tree... You are welcome to visit Hemresa. Thanks narbilu, I'll be sure to check Hemresa out. This was a simple way to get one of my characters to Avalonia for the second challenge, so I have the option of using them. Amazing work on the sides of those wagons! Are they just being held by gravity? Thanks MKJoshA, the wagon sides are held up using 1x1 modified plates with horizontal clips attached to horizintal bars running the length of the wagon. They are quite stable. Excellent build, Torgar, especially that tree Great design for the wagons as well, and awesome landscaping Thanks Garmadon! The wagons are the highlight of this, by itself really great, build. The angled set up and the colour contrasts really bring something to the scene. Thanks Hobbythom, I built the wagons first, and they inspired the rest of the scene. Amazing work Torgar.... Lovely MOC excellent tree.... You rock! Thanks Gunman! Wow, Torgar! The wagons are excellent and I love the landscaping from the ground to the water! And the tree….I'm speechless.

I especially like the tree and the wagons, although they look a bit large to be pulled by one horse each? UoP +1 for the claimed credits. Thanks Gideon! I tried two horses, but I didnt think it looked quite right for the scene. I wanted to make it look like they were fleeing Nocturnus at a snails pace. Maybe they will pick up a second horse or somthing else to pull their wagons on their next stop . I'd like to use these wagons in a few differnt mocs if time permits. Love the caravans, excellent building there. Fits right into the scenery too Thanks nivremis! I love that tree and the wagon technique. Absolutely stunning. Thanks Architect! Wonderfully swampy. UoP DoH +1 on all claims. Thanks Gedren! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 What a landscape! The reddish brown banks look amazing as does the enormous tree The dark green for stagnant water is also quite effective, especially as an irregular base Quote

TheUtilityBelt Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Dat tree is AWESOME! +1 for all claims! Quote
Rogue Angel Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Beautiful build! I LOVE the tree AND the wagons. All the other details are excellent as well. Welcome to Avalonia, there should be some warmer climes along the Avalonia/Kaliphlin border that might suit the Kazzar well. Quote
Rolli Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 Thats what I thought when I opened the thread and saw the first image! Stunning work! Brilliant techniques for the tree and the wagons (lovely!) - the only criticism I would have is the 'water'. To me it doesn't work that well, personally I favor 1x1 trans tiles as they give you more depth. Personal thing I guess. Tremendous build, you keep coming back with awesome mocs! Keep up the great work! Quote
