[WZ9:G7 Desert King] Bloody Lane Stand-off

[Hammerhand]

EDIT: Added story.

Along the Oil Road, the Desert King's forces encounter a group of High Council soldiers trying to hold the road. The soldiers, who appear to be fresh recruits, quickly shove their commander forward, closing their shield wall behind him. Their commander, who doesn't have much more experience than his troops, stammers as he tries to think of something either courageous or diplomatic to say to the battle hardened warriors in front of him.

He takes an involuntary step back when the commander of the opposing troops steps forward. The man, who looks strangely familiar, quietly says, "I give you the choice - either surrender unconditionally, or face your death."

Caught between two orders, he looks back at his soldiers. Should he hold the road at all costs as he was ordered by his superiors, or should he surrender and preserve his life, as well as the lives of his men?

If I win, I pick L6 as the next WZ.

Very, very nice!

[LittleJohn]

Excellent entry! The sand is superb and I like how the road is cracked

[Garmadon]

Very nice road and sand-scape, Hammerhand, very cool minifigs as well! My only nitpick would be that the road could benefit from being a tad less straight

[Captain Dee]

Very clean design on the base and the cracked road is beautiful even if it is relatively straight. I would like a few more details but still you have a lot of figures that look all set for action. Nice job overall.

[Kai NRG]

Good work on the road and the landscaping and great job portraying a pretty intensive start to a battle!

[Spader]

Nice road!

[Jacob Nion]

This cracked look of the road fits perfectly what I imagined a road must look in the desert. The sand is also nicely done.

[Umbra-Manis]

Great road!

[Yzalirk]

Awesome build and it looks very clean and smooth! Good job.

[Hammerhand]

Thanks guys!

Very nice road and sand-scape, Hammerhand, very cool minifigs as well! My only nitpick would be that the road could benefit from being a tad less straight

Yeah, I tried to make it curve at the end using SNOT slopes, but it didn't work as well as I wanted it to. I meant to make it curve on the other end as well, but I got distracted with my WZ 7 build, and kind of forgot about it…

[Balbo]

Great work! I like the way you made the road and the sand

[Lord Vladivus]

Nice build!

[Dr.Cogg]

Great scene

[Blufiji]

Tense scene!

[robuko]

Very nicely done. Your builds somehow always look totally studless, even when they are not. The road is great.

[Robin Creations]

The Snot-work and fig posing are really awesome!

[soccerkid6]

The posing of both armies looks wonderful Very effective desert road and sandscape too
