posades Posted May 23, 2009 Little background info first: I wanted to make a watchtower for the skellies that would be the counterpart of the watchtower from the Tower Raid set for the Crownies. I also wanted to make it look like something that might actually come in a set, so no very intricate designs or details. It's still a WIP and my other camera that I usually take pictures with is out of commission, so sorry for the bad quality. And a shot comparing the two... All comments on how to improve appreciated.

Batbrick Posted May 24, 2009 Awesome creation, I noticed straight away how it mirrors the Crownie tower. I especially ove the placement of all the spikes. Batbrick Away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posades Posted May 26, 2009 Update: Tweaked a few features here and there, mostly small cosmetic features. I switched out a few black pieces in the back and put in dark bley slopes to make it look like it's more "built-in" into the BURP. Moved the two bone pieces in a stud near the middle of the tower. Did they look better the original position (lined up with the white column)? Added a welcome mat of sorts to divide the inside and outside of the tower, and also moved the bone pieces out a stud and changed the columns to black. I've also built some other Skeleton counterparts to small Crownie vehicles, might post them here later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commodore Hornbricker Posted May 26, 2009 You might be able to break up all that black by incorporating some spider webs to stick with the original evil feel (maybe some more flames too or some chains) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posades Posted May 26, 2009 You might be able to break up all that black by incorporating some spider webs to stick with the original evil feel (maybe some more flames too or some chains) I thought about adding chains or spider webs, but I thought it would look too busy/cluttered. I'll try adding some and see how it turns out. Flames I could possibly add near the prison, thanks for the recommendation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
