[de Gothia]

I suspected that it was the way you did it

First Task - The Garrison and Protectors of Iremons

These bowmen (and women) wear a more typical Avalonian dark green. They aren't the best archers I've ever made, but they work.

The common infantry, on the other hand, use a mixture of wool, furs, leather, plate and mail. Some of their styles are influenced by their nearby neighbors, the Mitgardians, but where the rest came from is anyone's guess - Valyrio, maybe?

Gilbert, the girl in that link is totally amazing! :wub:

[qiadris]

I like that you've included Mitgardian influence for common troops.

So much win

To the Lords of Avalonia,

I am just wondering, when the challenge of Book II will continue. The drow are marching our way and battlefields will spring out of nowhere soon.

Before going away for the next one and a half week, I thought I would just finish task 3. Hereby my entry:

Good job, Bregir! Gilbert, those troops look great, the gold helmets are a nice touch!

[Rogue Angel]

Challenge II is posted! Check it out and come help your guildsmen! I'm really hoping for some good Avalonian participation for this Challenge (It is our homeland after all.)

Long Live Avalonia!

[-Carson Haupt-]

I finished my ship, now I just have to decide what to do for a base.

[HammerBro]

Nice, I'm looking forward to it! I also have a ship I've made that will be posted soon (I hope).

[-Carson Haupt-]

Awesome! Can't wait to see it. I also just finished the exterior of my Albion build.

[HammerBro]

I just posted it. Looking forward to another great Albion build!

[-Carson Haupt-]

That's awesome!

[mpoh98]

Fantastic work Hammerbro! :D

[-Carson Haupt-]

Would anyone care to attempt to tech me the basics of panel rockwork? Or just post a shot of the inside workings?

[HammerBro]

Thanks to you both.

And Carson, could explain what you mean a bit more? Is this like it?

[-Carson Haupt-]

First off, wow. And second, no it's more like this: http://cache.lego.com/media/nxtlog/fb1672d1-80b2-4311-bd1a-57842c914084/800x600/GalleryFile.jpg

Those aren't really the examples I was planning on, but I can't seem to find the one I want. I'm looking for more of a boulder type rock than a cliff face.

[TheUtilityBelt]

Did you build that, HammerBro?

[Simon_S]

I don't think you can build such rocks with a specific technique someone else made before. Just try the angles out until you are happy with them... and with the time, every rock gets better ;-)

[Lord Vladivus]

The new mixel joints might allow you to get some funky angles- at least I've seen it done with ball joints before.

I´ve seen them as well! Have to buy some of them for that purpose!! :)

Have all Avalonians picked their side in the CH yet?

[HammerBro]

Did you build that, HammerBro?

No, its one of my finds on flickr.

Ah, I see. Sorry, but I don't really know how to do that. I think that the best way to do it would just be playing around with it and trying different ways to recreate the style.

DG, I've picked my side.

Just came back from easter holiday and is catching up with work and stuff. And then there is the important things in life... (GoH, obviously) - will pick side soon !
