Legonardo Posted June 9, 2012 Commerce is vital to every Guild to bring wealth and foreign goods in plentiful supply. For this challenge show your character participating in some sort of commerce or trade between Guilds. The more creative build the better! For my (first)entry I made a Trade Cogsailing back to Avalonia after a trade venture with Kaliphlin. Cargo that didn't fit below deck Legonardo talking to Naroug after his trip to Kaliphlin, showing off his gold arrow he won in Mypa Stedor Stern, featuring a working rudder NOTE: Before an argument begins about why this shouldn't be accepted into the contest as the ship is 54x52 studs and the max is 48x48 here: C&C welcome ~Legonardo~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hersbrucker Posted June 9, 2012 WOW, that is so amazing!!!! The sides and the deck are so great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
de Gothia Posted June 9, 2012 Such a beauty! That first pic is just great! How you managed to blur out the lego studs in the water is really nice! Love all the details you put in as well, such as the cargo on the deck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxim I Posted June 9, 2012 Haha the 48x48 seems legit... Wow, really nice!! I love how you did the water (even it is not your first time ) Also great first picture!! And also very nice to see Naroug back in this MOC!!! He definitely deserved that arrow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted June 9, 2012 Excellent ship! The working rudder is a neat touch So you are going to make multiple entries? That is great! I'm really pleased with all the entries that have been coming in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hyler Talliwell Posted June 9, 2012 The 48x48 test cracked me up. Wonderful ship! The dark brown bits look really good and the overall shaping is very pleasing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niku Posted June 9, 2012 I really like the look and feeling about the cog and its surrounding waters. Is nice to see Avalonia has begun to construct ships of their own, as I think it was our great weakness, prior your trade cog, the other guilds dominated alone the waters.

kabel Posted June 10, 2012 Nice ship you've got there! Looking extremely realistic for a Medieval cargo ship!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purpleparadox Posted June 10, 2012 Great MOC! This might be the best entry for the Commerce Challenge so far! Lots of great details, and the first pic is just WOW. Great work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain BeerBeard Posted June 11, 2012 Great job! I really like the base you made. Do the guards/sailors really need shield's when sailing? Sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecclesiastes Posted June 11, 2012 Great design!I really like the hull, also the cargo looks very real. Although I don't hope they will face a storm, or all the cargo will go overboard! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Blackmoor Posted June 12, 2012 Beautiful cog there! Especially the wide deck and the sail is very inspiring. As the A.T.C. doesn't have a trade cog yet, it would surely come in handy to transport our goods overseas. For a good price of course! Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legonardo Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks for all the nice comments guys! Haha the 48x48 seems legit... Wow, really nice!! I love how you did the water (even it is not your first time ) Also great first picture!! And also very nice to see Naroug back in this MOC!!! He definitely deserved that arrow! The 48x48 test cracked me up. Wonderful ship! The dark brown bits look really good and the overall shaping is very pleasing. Haha yeah I was hoping some people would find that amusing I really like the look and feeling about the cog and its surrounding waters. Is nice to see Avalonia has begun to construct ships of their own, as I think it was our great weakness, prior your trade cog, the other guilds dominated alone the waters. I agree, My third entry will be the ATC docks ( If Cap'n Blackmoor allows it) Great job! I really like the base you made. Do the guards/sailors really need shield's when sailing? Sorry Not really, now that I come to think of it... Beautiful cog there! Especially the wide deck and the sail is very inspiring. As the A.T.C. doesn't have a trade cog yet, it would surely come in handy to transport our goods overseas. For a good price of course! Great work! Would it be OK if I simply joined the ATC? or at least until the contest ends? ATC trade cog sounds so much cooler ~Legonardo~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derfel Cadarn Posted June 17, 2012 Nice work! This is something we havn't seen that much of here and this is an excellent example! Will you be making an Avalonian port for this? Well done for building something that we are lacking of in Avalonia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rogue Angel Posted June 20, 2012 Very nice ship you've built here. I like the color scheme, and it definitely looks like a solid cargo ship versus the war vessels we normally see. I like the use of the canvas as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
