Apple Pi Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Hi everyone, this MOC was developed as an entry for the Avalonian "Prince of the Forest" task I hope you like it! C&C are very welcome! - - - - - "Once there was an old oak tree inside the forest. It was a couple hundred years old and nothing could ever destroy it. War, fire, ice, time. And a few forestmen, on the running after stealing a very powerful and rich merchant, used it as a hideout during weeks. After that, they decided to use the strong structure as a pillar for their future fortress. And even after a hundred years from it's foundation, the fortress remains as strong as the great oak tree ever was. And so it shall be forever" - The Oak Fortress The Oak Fortress by PedroPolo on flickr The Oak Fortress by PedroPolo on flickr Jaeger's Outlaws by PedroPolo on flickr - - - - - Quote
Infernum Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Incredible work on the tree! The fortress part is great too! Love the figs! Quote
Niku Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 My goodness this work is great, looks very natural and organical how well it blends the tree with the construction, the forms, the colors. Quote
iNsAnE_Asterix Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Wow, that is really a great build!!! Quote
Hobbythom Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 It's like one of the old forestmen sets on steroids! Awesome build! Quote

Wedge09 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Great work :thumbup: I love the mix between the tree and the stone tower Quote
Sandy Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Wow, I just love how the different colored leaves blend together! Thank you TLG for finally giving us the leaf piece in other colors than just shades of green! Truly a magnificent creation, great job! The minifigs are great, as well, very fitting. Quote
NiL_FisK_Urd Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 That build is gorgeous, this must be one of the best tree builds i saw Quote
soccerkid6 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Glad to have you in GoH! The tree looks fantastic, I especially like the different color leaves in it The fortress section is also superb, I especially like the curved shape and the hoardings over the gate Great first build for Avalonia, looking forward to many more Quote
Captain BeerBeard Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I wish the photos weren't so small and blurry. Quote
Gideon Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Wonderful build! This is really how those old forestmen sets should have looked Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Hands down my favourite forest men build I've seen. Quote
Mike S Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Wonderful build! This is really how those old forestmen sets should have looked This is exactly my sentiment! Superb work! Quote
kermit Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Really nice work. You incorporated the building into the tree perfectly. Quote
Captain Settle Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Wow, that's amazing! The detail in the wooden parts and the tree are amazing! Quote
Apple Pi Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 Thanks a lot everyone! Im really happy to see that my hard work makes you fell like that! It took me some hours do build (a lot of them!) and I appreciate all the compliments from the heart! Quote
kabel Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 That's quite a moc for an introduction to the community! I love it! Quote
PenPlays Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 That tree is absolutely stunning!! Fantastic MOC. You've definitely earned your title! Quote
mrcp6d Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 This is awesome. My favorite part isn't the tree though, it's the windows on the tower spiraling up. I imagine there must be a spiral staircase in there--great detail! I wish the photos weren't so small and blurry. So.... click on them? His flickr has the huge resolution you're after. Quote
Kai NRG Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Excellent job! Very nice first build for Avalonia! Great tree there and the transition from it to the stone fortress is very smooth! Great work! Quote
harton Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 What a lovely build! I really like the shape of your base, really different. And what about the tree and the tower... So perfect in my own opinion! Wow, well done. And good luck for your contest! Quote
Garmadon Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Great build the oak tree combines with the tower very well Nice foliage and irregular base as well Quote
