[L&DiK] C2: XIX The Tower

[Wedge09]

I start thinking about only a few days ago but here is the result: Card XIX The Tower.

Enjoy!

[Gideon]

Nice microscale ruin, different kinds of light gray works very well for this!

I also like the base a lot with the curved pieces and the tiles

Edit: +1 for microscale as well, even though I think you should write your claim here in the thread also.

The whole micro scale build is well achieved and combines very well the colors and state of decay of the tower.

Good job.

As Gideon said, nice base! I do like this sudden splurge of microscale that's going on. I want a piece of the action!

Nice entry Wedge! The gold base is my fav part, with the direction tiles - a really cool touch. I can't help but feel though that the tower could use a bit more hight. It looks a bit too squat to me, and being centred in the middle of the base doesn't help that impression. If you raised one of the corners by about 3 bricks that might help the composition a bit? Also, one of the things that makes microscale work is the relationship between various recognisable elements in the build - adding microscale trees, scattered masonery on the ground, a tiny caravan passing etc would really help you to set the scale in this - as it is it could be almost any scale. For this reason i'm not 100% comfortable yet with giving you a credit for microscale, but if you revised it i'd be happy to look at it again.

Thanks a lot Gideon, I'm glad you like it; about saying here, I forget to do it, sorry

Thanks for the tips Gabe, always usefull; on my support I have to say that this tower is mean to be in the desert and for a long time, therefore it couldn't be very high due to the wear of time and weather

I too really like the gold base. Nice entry!

Thanks Torgar

A very nice ruin! But the base it what stands out the most! I love it!! Great work!

[soccerkid6]

The 1x1 round plates work nicely to texture the walls and the base sets off the build nicely

[vangar graybeard]

cool

[Kayne]

Very cool take on this, however I need to agree with Gabe on it. For UP credit for microscale I believe we need to see some more variation and elevation,
