Franco Clarke Posted March 26, 2017 The days when the ships of men controlled the seas are at an end. No longer is a large vessel able to sail with complete security. For a new monster has risen to rule the waters of the world. Some say it was summoned by one of the warring Empires, by science or magic. Others claim it is an ancient entity that has awoken from a deep slumber. No man can sail the seas without fear of attack. At any moment the waves may begin to boil, and your boat dragged below. Or at once your ship is seized by unholy jaws and crushed with the strength of 1000 cannons. No matter the size, no matter the firepower, crossing the oceans has become suicide. Just a little entry to the sea monster category, using a quickly assembled warship and a load of tentacles! I hope you all like it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackdeathgr Posted March 26, 2017 I am very happy to see that awesome MOC completed (and even happier for the earlier WIP photos as well) and I have only one thing to say: You totally nailed it! The monster size is adequate, the ship is well built, the action is frantic and all in all, a great entry for cat C. I would like to see it rendered some day, if possible, so as to see it in its full glory! muhahahahaha! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bodi Posted March 26, 2017 That's a very scary beast, and the two-decker is very well made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted March 27, 2017 Quite a fearsome beast there! The fella running down the head is pretty funny! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxim I Posted March 27, 2017 Thank you very much for building such a beautifull vessel for Eslandola! Too bad it is already lost Absolutely great job on your beasty! I really hope to not counter it in my life :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Genaro Posted March 28, 2017 That came out really nice. I love the various shots showing the tentacles attacking the crew as they attempt to flee or fight. My favorite part has to be the head. You did an excellent job with the ship's design and showing its destruction. Finally, it's amazing just how good the various curves came using only basic bricks and plates. Overall a fantastic MOC and a top-notch entry. Hats off to you, sir.

Ayrlego Posted March 30, 2017 Really great entry, the shear scale of the monster and ship are very impressive! On glancing at the first picture I thought it was just going to be a single tentacle, so the giant beast was quite a surprise! Fantastic job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolonialbeamter Posted April 1, 2017 Fantastic entry, Franco, a truly terrifying beast My favorite part is the head of the monster munching its way through the ship, the way you managed to build the neck around the head... and that tentacle destroying the ship's stern The guy running down the monster's head - hilarious Just one thing - some renders would make this whole creation shine even more Keep it up!

dr_spock Posted April 3, 2017 Great LDD entry. Those Eslandolans sure looks the part of tasty treats. I think taking an extra step to render the images would be icing on the cake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
