[MOC] The River Gate on the Mountain

[Vorkosigan]

The river gate was built to tax the merchants who traveled the river through the mountain and into the kingdom. All who pass must pay their tribute or end up imprisoned under the mountain.

On the bottom left is the treasury. On the right are the dark cells for those who fail to pay or try to smuggle. Up above the tax is levied.

Interior upper floor left - armory and small practice area. Connected to the interior of the mountain by a stairway.

Interior bottom left - goods confiscated or accepted in lieu of gold. An entrance into the prison area of the mountain is guarded.

Interior upper right - guards eat, drink, and relax after their shift.

Interior bottom right - the guards' quarters.

Great work! Neat concept you have there. The mountain looks pretty good. Are there any shots of the dungeon?

[Mpyromaxos]

Nice cretation! I like the idea of the door for the boats under the mountain!

Nice work wit the rocks also!

Fantasti masterpiece!

I really like the internal details!

[Staslegomaster]

It looks gigantic. You have great patience and skill of the same size!

[LittleJohn]

Fantastic build! I really like how the towers are built into the rockwork and the interiors are great as well

Pretty build with good color use and wall texture Though I think the interior steals the show here I like your triangular openings for ladders

[Ed9217]

Excellent work on the interiors here, especially like the bunk beds and the sleeping quarter.

Nice job! It looks like a lot of time went into this. You seem to have a lot of those flat silver studs, haha

Very nice build with lots of noteworthy details and techniques! Job well done sir!

[BaneShake]

These fantasy builds are all way too good!

[Vorkosigan]

Thanks everyone for the many kind comments!

Are there any shots of the dungeon?

Sorry there is not much to the dungeon, just some jail doors into bare cells. I should've thought about building a hinged wall or something and made a complete cell.

You seem to have a lot of those flat silver studs, haha

They were on the PaB wall at one time, they're good for studded wood although I want to get some more of the new pyramid 1x1s.

Nice one, I really like how you did the doors. I think the wooden platform on the right is a bit thick, if you made the legs of it higher and then made it only 2 plates thick.

I love the idea here, and the execution is very well done. I love all of the stone, and I love the little details throughout (including the goats out front).

Nice work!
