Lord Vladivus Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Read Part 1 HERE. "As Lord Vladivus' memory slipped back to the time of his entry to Nocturnus, he began to speak aloud, although Corocus knew the story well, being part of it, he listened... "My father was an ancient, nomadic Vampire, whom I have never met. When my mother fell pregnant with me, she feared for her life, but as the Lady of Avalonia, she was unable to simply desert her post. She carried me for nearly nine months, hiding her fears beneath a veneer of duty. However, her world was about to shatter. When I was born, it was swiftly apparent that I was different- pale, white skin, and a lust for blood set me apart from other newborns. it was then that a sinister group made their play. A group of Avalonians sought to take my mothers ancestral lands, and hoped to do so by exposing my mother's so-called unholy union with my father. By capturing me, they hoped to lure my father back to rescue me. They had not counted upon my mothers natural instincts, and her self- reliance, and she fled, pursued by Avalonian soldiers. I remember little from this time, but my mother always talked to me when i was small, especially in the hard times crossing the Rakath Mountains. She told me how the arrows flew thickly, and the barking of dogs spurred her ever on. My mother spoke of how there was always a particular Avalonian soldier directing the others towards her. Eventually however, my mother escaped, losing her pursuers in the Kelra Labyrinth. Next came the hardest journey, one which would eventually claim my mothers life; crossing the Rakath Mountains..." Vladivus' voice trailed off, and his face hardened..." Build without figures: Part 2 of my sig-figs backstory. C+C welcome! Cheers. Quote
The Yeti Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 This is very good, I like the use of multiple shots of the same build to convey different parts of the story, and the posing is top notch. Your presentation could really be improved, however, if you either used a single white sheet or poster as your backdrop or if you used GIMP or photoshop to clone away the lines between the pieces of printer paper, it would help highlight the excellent energy in your mocs.

Lord Vladivus Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 @The Yeti, thanks. Yeah I need to sort something out. My computers old and barely runs, so I'm leaning towards getting a poster or plain white sheet to do the trick. @Infernum, cheers, I've got a vivid imagination, but I find it difficult to express sometimes, so it's nice to see somebody appreciating the story! Keep an eye out for some of the figs in future MOCs. Quote
Yooha Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Oh, cute little Vladivus, is...a brick and a plate Can't wait for the rest of the story! Who can that Avalonian soldier be? I hope there will be a twist in the story about him.. And the scene is nice too of course. Edited November 20, 2013 by Yooha Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 @Yooha, isn't he just the cutest? Haha. I hope I do the Avalonian soldier justice, he'll be appearing in the future. Quote
