This is made for the Summer Joust 2023

 

 

Archduke Henrik of the blue Falcon faction had dedicated his life in loyal service to the former king. However, when the newly crowned red Falcon king Petrus dismissed him from his post, rage consumed his heart. Fuelled by a sense of betrayal, Archduke Henrik leapt from a rooftop, determined to challenge the king to a fight.

As he descended, King Petrus stood in shock, startled by the archduke's audacious act. But in that instant, something shifted within him. He recognized the pain in Henrik's eyes, the years of unwavering loyalty now shattered.

Unsheathing his sword, Archduke Henrik challenged the king to a duel, their clash symbolizing the fracture that had befallen the kingdom. With each clash of steel, their unresolved grievances manifested.

Thanks :)

Lifelike! For a split second I wondered if the floor was also made of lego. Choice of colours and use of depth truly impressive, I wish I were able to do half as good (even that would be quite an achievement!).

I can only agree.. this is beyond amazing! 

Looking great but I would like it more if focus of the build was on duel itself.

The scenery is so good, it detracts from the archduke ambushing the king. Well done!

Same, seeing more of the combat scene would be good.

Thanks all! I made a second shot of it.
