Dr Rod Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 So I confess this wasn't built for GoH, but I figured as I put my Nocturnus flags on it and it looks like it belongs in Kaliphlin.. I'd throw it in here :) Dr Rod - is still alive :) https://www.flickr.com/photos/intrastella/34038488811 Quote
zoth33 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 This is awesome. I love the landscaping especially the trees and the oasis itself. The fort is really neat. I like the color of the fort. The desert looks fantastic overall wonderful job. Quote
TitusV Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Now that's a pretty impressive build! Especially the large surface covered makes my jaw drop Great job! Quote
Kai NRG Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Really nice build, great landscaping especially with the transition from dark orange/dark flesh into tan! The palm trees along the banks also look really good and so do the stalls and fort behind! I enjoyed scrolling through the other pictures! Quote
Garmadon Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Very nice landscaping and excellent fortress, Dr. Rod, and great to see you around here again! The activity and details around the stalls is probably my favorite part of it all, though! Keep it up! Quote
Henjin_Quilones Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 The size and scope is certainly impressive, though the palm trees are my favorite part of it. The hills are also excellent, and make me wish I had even a fraction of the medium dark flesh and other tones that you used there. My main complaint is that you removed the portals before posting it here! Though I suppose random spacemen and robots would go a bit against the grain for Historica... Quote
soccerkid6 Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 Really a stunning model! The landscape is just incredible, such brilliant use of plates and bricks Lovely little fortress too, with some really clever use of Minecraft(?) printed parts Quote
en_zoo Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 my my! totally in love with the colours and landscape in general! Quote
Gideon Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 That easily fits into Kaliphlin! But the flags make me confused I love the contrast between the barren rocks and desert sand and the intense growth along the edge of the water. The flesh plates at the boundary between the rocks and the sand worked surprisingly well too! (Seriously Huge Investment Plate 8x8 trans-medium blue btw...? Or lucky enough to get them in a LUGbulk when they were in production?) Quote
Dr Rod Posted April 26, 2017 Author Posted April 26, 2017 I do like that colour combination for desert scenes. :) The printed bricks and tiles are from minecraft, and as for the 8x8 trans med blue plates, I crack-linked them years ago when they were around 70c each. Pretty sure 93% of AFOLs would love for LEGO to release that part in that colour again, or maybe in 4x6, 4x8, 2x4 too :) Dr Rod Quote
Servertijd Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 This looks awesome! I scrolled through your other pictures and there is so much details in it. that oasis is the eye catcher. Quote
The Maestro Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 This is amazing and the detail is inspiring. I love the hill and the palm trees are fantastic. The oasis is also great and I am loving this castle Quote
LittleJohn Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 Absolutely phenomenal work here, Dr. Rod! The colors used really make it pop, and I love the drastic change from dense vegetation along the banks to scarce bushes and sand farther away. The castle itself is wonderful as well, with the excellent use of minecraft parts for decoration, and all the surrounding market stalls. Quote
