Book II - Avalonia: Guild sign-up and Discussion

[soccerkid6]

Welcome!

Also, I have a question. I plan on trying to enter the CCC this year, and was wondering if there were any restrictions on using those entries as builds for the guilds. Since there's always a "Castle" category, I was specifically wondering about using that as my Task V. Do you guys know if that would disqualify it from either competition/task?

It's perfectly fine to use a build for both. For a build to qualify for the CCC it just can't have been revealed online or in public before November (not even WIP pictures), and meet the specific category requirements.

Welcome Petricel! That is a very interesting sigfig. Not like anything I have seen before - very innovative use of that backpack piece. He rather stands out in this bunch of armoured knights! :) Happy to have you on board!

Welcome to GoH Petricel! Awesome sigfig!

Thanks for your welcome!

Yes, I don't like it too armoured. I'm peaceful, but I can fight if necessary. Therefore just ask when you need my help!

So now I have to look arround and finde my place in Avalonia!

Ahh. Well that could possible be a problem. What if I had posted Wip shots, but then took it apart and rebuilt it differently but with the same idea?

Pretty sure that would be fine, though you could check with staff over at Classic-Castle to make sure

My latest freebuild for Sionnach is up

[Hammerhand]

What's going on fellow Avalonians? It's been pretty quite here lately other than DG's build... I myself have been kind of swamped with other life stuff, haven't had hardly any building time, and I haven't really been keeping up with things in GoH. It seems like I kind of get busy, and don't post for a while, and then I come back for a few days, and then I get busy again... Sigh...

[cablefoxley]

Iv got two mocs in the works. But due to the fact I work in the bar trade, which is getting busier and busier (thanks to xmas coming). Im really short on time to build, but hope to get these two done. Iv got one for the current men v dwarves and one for somewhere for me to live. Need to get some mocing done next week as iv got two days off in a row, yay.

You are not the only, I'm away from my bricks all the week except sunday and saturday I think I will came back building something in december...

What's everyone's opinion on me switching to yellow instead of fleshie? I'm leaning more and more towards it all the time for some reason.

[mrcp6d]

I work in the bar trade,

"bar" as in law, or "bar" as in beer?

I've never been a fleshie person, so I think it's a fantastic idea! I do think you lose some "expressiveness" options with the yellow heads though.

The fleshie vs. yellow argument will never end.

I'm a yellow person myself -- I've recently bought a few fleshy figs that I "fixed" -- but I'm not rabid about it. Fleshy people will replace yellow heads, and vice-versa. Use the heads/hands that please you.

[MiloNelsiano]

I like fleshie figures because I generally build with mostly earth tones and neutral colors. I just don't use too many bright colors in my mocs. However the appeal to yellow is always there as there are way more faces and expressions available. My pirate mocs currently all use yellow because I was much better able to depict the characters I wanted with my yellow faces. I haven't really messed with my pirate stuff in over a year though.

Paul von Brickenstein finally joins Avalonia

He is living in harmony with the elves on an island called "Lonaengwîn" (Isle of wine). The whole island is controlled by elves, except of an small harbor village, named Brickenstein.

[mpoh98]

It has been a long while....but I am back!!! :D

Welcome to all our new members, and welcome Disco!!! You made the right choice and joined the correct guild. :)

I have some new builds in the works that should come out by the end of the year, stay tuned...

[MKJoshA]

Paul von Brickenstein finally joins Avalonia

Oh No! It's all over! No other guild has a chance!

[Jakorin Swiftsword]

Paul von Brickenstein finally joins Avalonia

NOOOOO!!! Now I'll never win another challenge! But it's nice to see you chose the best guild! Welcome!

[Disco86]

Just a quick question, I already built and posted my elven vineyard yesterday, is there any chance to include it in the world of Avalonia ? Would fit my island perfectly :)

[Lord Vladivus]

Damn, welcome Disco, I think the rest of us guilds need to step out game up!

[de Gothia]

Most welcome disco!! Glad to see you here!!:)

It's totally fine to post your wineyard! :)

[kabel]

Welcome Disco, it's good to see you here but as a fellow Hessian you joined the wrong guild!

[Garmadon]

Great to see you finally over here Disco (even though your in the wrong guild )!

[JaseTJ]

Jason of Allerdale, at your service!

Jason's home of Allerdale is comprised mostly of workers. Your neighbors are more than likely to be farmers or craftsmen if you live there. Even as their humble leader, Jason is skilled with woodcarving, crafting the sturdiest tools and finest trinkets around.

((I'm not sure if it's an issue to have several pictures, so I'll spoiler-tag the other two, along with some more information.)

But of course, for everything there is a season... and that includes war.

Jason is not the most skilled fighter, but he's smart enough to have survived his battles. Though at one point he spent five years wandering the Guilds, he came back when his homeland needed him, and has fought proudly for Avalonia since.

He also finally settled down...

His wife, Lillian, is the daughter of the previous ruler of Allerdale. She did not wish to rule herself, so he married her and took the role.

And finally, Allerdale itself is highlighted in yellow. The convergence of the twin rivers is home to Jason himself, along with the small town that serves as the capitol of the region. All along the rivers, many have made use of the hyro-power for various mills to provide for their families.

((Also, excuse the phone pictures. I'll post better a better picture of Jason eventually, preferably with some sort of MOC as a background- I just wanted to join the guild already! :) ))

"bar" as in law, or "bar" as in beer?

Bar as in beer yeah. But were an upmarket bar and restaurant, so it s more cocktails and wine than beer. Just got in from there and its starting to get a little nuts. Roll on january when I can put me feetup.
