We're on the road to Pontelli...

This is my entry for the Mini-Challenge: The Grand Road of Nellisa.  "Action on the Road"

Somewhere near the Terelli Hills things are going to be heating up very soon.

The Corringtonean coach and the Eslandolean coach are facing each other.

None of the drivers is willing to give way... the passengers are siding with them.

Who will be the first one to steer the coach into the swamp?

And what lies ahead?

Some people on the side of the road seem to be waiting for their chance...

C&C welcome!

Woah, great build, CB   Lovely landscaping and those coaches are pretty well done.

This road clearly needs traffic rules

Niiiice!!!! I love both carriages AND the landscaping! Though it seems Corringtoneans must surely travel under armed protection rather than strolling around some marshy landscape. Thieves are lurking!!

[Capt Wolf]

I always hate it when the other guy won't pull to the side on a one-lane road. Harrumph!

Beautiful landscaping job, and lots of little details packed into the scene (like the frog at the edge of the puddle). Excellent!

Great job landscaping. There is one way to settle this.  Coach war fare!  Whoever has the cheapest fares win.

Thanks, unfortunately, the coaches have been designed - more or less - by TLG.

The landscape, however, is the real MOC (and was presented in its first form without the hill in Antwerpen last week).

Yes, thieves!

More to come!

You found the frog!  I was so happy with my dark green swamp

Well, I thought the Eslandolean coach has some army guys right behind it for support!

And then I thought:

Wells Fargo.

And then it was time to stop

 Very neat build, Captain B, and quite a dilemma there!    Loving all those ETWC soldiers marching behind the Eslandolan coach! 

[Puvel]

Love the variety you put into the landscape! The colours of the different layers, trees, rocks, a little swamp, it's all there.

A note though: [Build contains 8 minifigs, one monkey, 2 frogs and 3 horses]

A mini-challenge, you said?  awesome landscaping man, great job! I'm curious who will give in first

.. and I have miscounted: 9 minifigs - there is a guy with a sombrero behind the red/white coach.

Thanks - I hope that the guys will manage before the robber starts something evil...
