[Freebuild] Only Silence Returns

[Sympatik Brick]

I typically never have time to build during the two summer months, but I just barely had enough time to participate in the "Summer Joust" competition in June for the first time this year. The category was "Where no one dares go."

I decided to feature this minifigure I created a while ago in a small scene.

This scene should be considered an Arthurian legend rather than a depiction of real places or people.

This is one of the first times I've integrated lights into a MOC.

I hope you like it!

Only Silence Returns

 

 

In a realm forgotten by time, where silence is the only law, sits the Faceless Reaper. He is the guardian of the final crossroad, a patient judge enthroned amidst cold ruins. His spectral sentinels, frozen in stone, watch over the path no living soul dares to tread. At his side, his loyal steed, the Grave-wing, waits with him. Its skeletal frame is a stark promise of the inevitable journey for any who wander into this desolate land. The borders of this realm appear on no map.

Love the spooky vibe! The blue lights and wall patterns really sell the atmosphere, and the use of the 2x2 bricks with channels in the walls is super creative!

Awesome!  I love the design with the tiles on the walls. The overall vibe here is really cool. I'd love to see it with a little less retouching, but I do understand how it works for the spookiness. You did a great job incorporating the thestrals into an amazing creepy scene, and the various 'tails' as tentacles is great. The reaper is similarly creepy, and the bright light blue color from the flames is fantastic.  The statuary here reminds me of the cover of the 1st Ed. Temple of Elemental Evil adventure.  I think this would make a great entrance to a gate of some kind in Nocturnus...
