Garmadon Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Excellent work on the sideways rock and the vegetation, Gideon! The sand green swamp and the bridge are great too, and fantastic work on the tower itself BTW, I like how the trees' roots go down to the water Quote
Rolli Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Great tower, Gideon! The tree is brilliant ( ) as is the irregular base. Not really sure about the green surface though. Also nice techniques in the tower - especially the windows are nicely done! Quote
Emma Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 That tree is beautiful - definitely my favorite part. I also like the bridge and how it ends flush with the border, and the SNOT stairs are great. My only criticism would be that I also feel like the sideways rocks are a bit too uniform, but breaking it up with the olive cheese slopes helps. Quote
Ecclesiastes Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Great rock work and stonework on the tower. I should force myself to also do more stonework like that. But that means way more sorting afterwards... Quote
mpoh98 Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 This is a really great job Gideon, the tower is fantastic, the rockwork is amazing, and I love the stones cut into the rocks! Quote
de Gothia Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 And I forgot to post in your thread aswell Gid! I have the same excuse as you! I like that the tree is following us! It´s such a beauty in tan! Have to think of that in up coming mocs! The rockworks is also great, love the stair leading up to the tower. Great entry!!! Quote
ZCerberus Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Spire represents again. Lovely build Gideon. Quote
Rogue Angel Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 This is a superb entry! I really like your strategic use of color, the stepped rockwork, and especially the slanted orientation of the tower. I'm just starting to get into that myself. The tree and the bridge are also very well done. Great job! Quote
Gabe Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Really pleasing build Gideon! The tree, wooden walkway and stairs are my favourite parts, they just look so organic and natural. The snotted rockwork is neat too, especially broken up with the olive cheese and foliage, although in places it does seem incongrously smooth compared to the weathered tower above it. Perhaps using so many curved slopes contributes to this... the shiny surface of the bricks rather than the matt of regular slopes doesn't seem to reflect the material it is trying to convey, and the lack of studs also cuts down on available texture. (Personally i think the rockwork section that works best is the back side of the stairs, where there is a mix of SNOT and studs-up used) The tower looks really imposing above the landscaping, well proportioned and the offset windows look really nice! UoP: +1 for all claims. Quote
Kayne Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Yet another in which I either missed the credits the first time or they were requested later, but I also give +1 to all 4 of these Quote
