Legopard Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) Entry for Book II Challenge II Category B for deGothias side. The plague devastates Avalonia. Even the avalonian island Moria wasn't spared by the wave of illness. So Sir Moriartus called Mitgarda for medics, because of the good relations between him and some of the lords there. Aaron lost his wife and children in the last cruel war in Mitgardia and decided to study the old scriptures of medic. He wants to save other people from the dolor he got and save as much lives as possible. But the habitation of other people always reminds him of his dead family, so he lives solitary from the village on a small rock in the sea. In his small home he has everything he needs. Every day he paddle to the coast to heal people from the plague. The fight seems absurd, but Aaron tries his best to save the inhabitants of Moria. The free time Aaron has in his home, he spends on reading and rearing of swans. Explore all the details on MOCpages! I hope you like it and feel free to post your thoughts about this creation. :) Jonas Edited June 16, 2014 by Legopard Quote
Kai NRG Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Lots of great piece use here! Love that swan. Can't quite see what it's made out of though, what pieces did you use for it's body? Quote
Scaevola Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Nice, very innovative moc. I like the way you did the tudor-style building with the slopes, and nice job with the tower too Quote
Infernum Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Nice! love the swan! I really like the idea behind the MOC! Great work! Quote
mccoyed Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 That is great. Fully of tiny little authentic "slice of life" details that I really like to see in MOCs. The fishline and supply-laden boat are my favorite parts. I am in awe of how you pulled that swan off too. Can you show us more? Quote
Rolli Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 There's a reason why Sir Moriartus turned to you, thank you for your aid in these harsh times..! Great build as usual and loaded with excellent techniques. Great combination of colours, the inverted rock work is nice and the tower works very well. As mccoyed pointed out the realism and the details totally make it. The swan is top-notch as I already told you. Looking forward to more GoH builds from you! Quote
Legopard Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 Hello guys Thank you very much for the positive feedback :) The body of the swan is this technic figure helmet. Maybe i will post a picture of the swan later/next week. Quote
Garmadon Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Excellent build, the tower is excellent, I especially like the PU on top As mentioned above, the realism is a great touch and the swan is superb Quote
Torgar Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Awesome, I love the colors you used and how the house and tower are sitting on the rock. Nice job! Quote
robuko Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Outstanding build legopard. The tower is extremely well done with lovely techniques and parts use, the house is beautifully integrated into the rock. The overall scene is wonderfully atmospheric. And the Swan is great! Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Love it! So many great details to admire. Quote
Yooha Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Very cute. I like the flower vine, a good idea. How is the green roof build? Are the tiles just put there without clutched? Quote
Rolli Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) How is the green roof build? I'm guessing 1x4 panels turned sideways that are just resting on top of each other without clutch. Edited June 17, 2014 by Rolli Quote
TenorPenny Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 It's really well done, with a lovely backstory too..! Quote
Wat Tambor Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Very nice creation, great to see an entry for Challenge II from you. What I really like about your MOCs, and this one is no exception, it that they are always full of details. Your part usage always surprises me and the outcome of your work is just magnificent. I think I have never seen such a beautiful brick built swan in minifig scale. Keep up the great work! Quote
Simon_S Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Nice build! The swan looks very good. I also like the colour (medium dark flesh?) that you choose for the tower, it looks way better than just a normal grey one. Quote
Hammerhand Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Cool! I really like the tower, and the house using snot to get the lines on the side, very nice. Quote
Kayne Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Not sure what I can say here.....this is great, from construction to colors to editing, etc....nice job! Quote
Gabe Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Beautiful moc Legopard, very serene and contemplative. I love the unusual parts usages for the top of the tower, the chair and the swan. The house itself is great too with the green panel roof, half-timbering and corner details. If i have one small criticism, it would be that in places the underneath rockwork doesn't achieve the same level of complexity as the architecture on top of it. But overall, this is just a treat for the eyes! Quote
Thomas of Tortuga Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Really great color choices on the tower- it looks terrific. Quote
Gunman Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 What an amazing build... (another one) from you Jonas. The swan, the beautiful tower, everything.... Nice one Quote
MKJoshA Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Some great building techniques here! And I love how many different birds you have represented! Quote
de Gothia Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Outstanding work! So much to look at and love in this build! Quote
Legonardo Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 really awesome stuff! the use of colour is epic Quote
