LittleJohn Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Built for category A of Challenge V, for the Alliance side. The path design was inspired by Thorsten Bonsch’s Orsinium. It was fun experimenting with the path here, albeit time consuming. A messenger gallops through the lands of Kaliphlin, spreading the word of the return of the true king of Historica! Perhaps 'gallops' is a poor choice of words though, as the camel seems content with a slow walk, much to the messenger's distress. More pictures on Brickbuilt Thanks for looking, C&C welcome Quote
Alfadas Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The path looks really nice, the foliage looks great! Good entry! Quote
Kai NRG Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The path is what really stands out here... and stand out it does - fantastic curve and really great dual-colored texture! The loaded camel and desert vegetation look really good too! Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Great entry ! This path is really outstanding ! I like it ! Good job ! Quote
Henjin_Quilones Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The path is great, LJ, as others have said, but to me what stands out most is the level of polish that the build displays. That is largely due to the fact that not a single stud is showing outside of the foliage at the top of the tree. The SNOT landscape is very effective for that. Excellent work! Maybe the messenger will even get there on time... Quote
Merc4Hire Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Very much agree with everyone, the path is oustanding! And the smoothness of the surrounding terrain compliments the path ever so much. Fun little read as well, I chuckled at the messengers face after reading about how slow the camel travels. Quote
TitusV Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I have seen the path-design before, but never so well-done, and never with dark tan in between. I think thatreally adds an extra touch and makes it fit perfectly into the Kaliphlin desert. overall pretty amazing! Quote

soccerkid6 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 The SNOT landscape works beautifully here! Good choice to add some dark tan rocks, and the bush and tree finish it off nicely That path steals the show though Quote
Isundir Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Fantastic, the path and sand is sexy as heck. Quote
Leonardo da Bricki Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 The landscape is excellent, but the path takes the cake! And the camel rider's expression is perfect. Quote
Grover Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 This is a really cool build. I have been looking and re-looking at this over the past several days. I always see something new, or something new about it strikes me. I love the detail on the palm tree, the way the path wends through the desert but still has definable edges, the slight curb on the edge of the path, the smoothness as Henjin noted, even the direction of the small OD-green plants lining up in clumps... really well done. I am very impressed by this and it has given me many ideas for my own builds. Awesome! Quote
