CDC1 Tower: Saibankan

[Ecclesiastes]

The Elven High Adjudicator oversees a new execution. The sacred tree Saibakan houses an ancient court. Here wanted creatures are put to rest. Often caught by Centaur Bounty Hunters. A perfect trade as the Centaurs are addicted to shrooms, which grow on the heads of former criminals...

I like the curves on the court! Great build, and imaginative story!

[Kai NRG]

What a neat use of the new book cover tile!  The combination of dark red and dark green leaves looks brilliant too, and a really neat trunk technique!

[Captain Dee]

Wow.  Now that is some composition. Excellent design and use of color. The tree trunk, the treetop structure, the staircase, it's all really cool. Fantastic.

So cool!

Absolutely gorgeous build Ecc! The rounded shapes of the structure, stairs, and base all accentuate the graceful Elven style, and your color choices were spot on

Fantastic use of the large book and wing elements for the roofs too

[jtooker]

Wow!  Great colors - but I love the shapes of the MOC best - especially the framed base.  Great entry!

"A perfect trade as the Centaurs are addicted to shrooms, which grow on the heads of former criminals..." is not a sentence I expected to read today, but I'm glad that I did!

There is so much to appreciate about the MOC itself. The story is great, roofing is creatively done (in all its forms), and the stairs/tree trunk are simple yet effective (sometimes builders "over-engineer" the latter), and I love the little touches like the archways and the brick trees.

Great work!

[ZCerberus]

That is one MASSIVE tree trunk.  Very cool technique. 

[Naijel]

Nice. I love the white and sand green combi. Chopping block with blood is a cool touch.

[Faramer]

Nice build.

Love the design of this build.  The color choices are perfect.  The blue wing/flap pieces are a great visual effect.  The tree design is great and the foliage looks wonderful, the layering of the leaf pieces looks really good.  Are the torsos on the elf figs roman soldier torsos?  All the figs look great, the elf with half the scarred face is excellent and the centaurs with the orc torsos works really well.  

[Grover]

Really beautiful tower.  I love the dragon skulls, and your use of the sand blue and green with the foliage feels very elven to me.  You've packed a lot of detail in here with the sweeping staircase and the statuary, all of which is gorgeous.  Great job, and way to kick off the challenge!

[Gideon]

Lovely build! I especially like all the various rounded shapes you've managed to capture here 
The story is also very fitting for the "grayscale" approach to good and evil in GoH I like the best 

(Are you also using fleshies for the elves, because I seem to recall you normally stick to yellows...? )

[The Stad]

Wonderful details, great fig combinations, amazing tree, and spot-on color combinations. But what else could we expect from you?

Also, I'm very envious of your dark red leaves...

Love this! The tree and house design is awesome, the colors are great and there are lots of neat details!
