Challenge V - Viking Treasure Boat

[Garmadon]

My challenge V entry is finally done!!

Long ago, the heroes of Mitgardia were buried in their best ship.

Having found the map to his great grandfathers tomb and the great treasure locted there,

Uridius, his father, nephews and followers Camp at the site to discover the secret of the long lost treasure.

Take a closer look at the double falls and catch some salmon for supper!

Write down the adventures of the journey to send to the king of Mitgardia:

Check out the inside of the Palisade:

Or check out the new model:

Uridius and his father try to discover the location of the cave...

While the cook prepares lunch... Oops!

Take that back. While the cook BURNS lunch

Uridius's young nephew's enjoy sparring, or at least one of them does!

Solve the mystery of the lost treasure!

By pulling the level a portion of the rock collapses revealing the treasure chamber.

Remove the diamond to swing up the wall and recover the treasure!

Wonderful Entry!

I definitely laughed at the sparring, and the ruined ship is very well done.

Is the treasure room mechanized so the lever works or is it just for show?

[Kai NRG]

Nice job! I like the pallisade and the way the boat curves!

Yes, it is mechanized.

If you did'nt see, when the rock is'n't there, you can see a technic peice that I attached to the level, so that it's not a very complex mechanisim.

Very nice entry, the ship is impressive and I like your tent and palisade Lots of nice details like the boys sparring and the cook sleeping.

Working mechanisms are always a plus in my book as well

@Garmadon

Oh I understand Now. Simple but effective .

Once again wonderful moc.

[I Scream Clone]

A really nice entry with an impressive shipwreck and the figures bring the scene to life.

[PenPlays]

That ship really turned out well for you! The treasure room is also a nice touch. Wonderful job.

[Torgar]

I love the boat, a shipwreck was a really good idea. Great entry!

[Garmadon]

Thanks everbody!

And credit goes to Kai NRG for the idea of a inner room.

[kabel]

This is a really great moc, the wreck is especially intriguing!!

[Mike S]

Great ideas and entry! Nice to have the bit of humor with the cook and sparring!

[Wedge09]

Really nice work :thumbup:

The cook that burns the luch is great :laugh:

[Ecclesiastes]

Excellent work, I really like the brick build ship and how well you've the minifigs in it!

[Garmadon]

Thanks everybody!

[Infernum]

Haha! I love the sparring! Great build!

[de Gothia]

A very unique entry with a ship for sure! Great idea and well done putting the idea into bricks!

[Erynlasgalen]

Great idea with the wrecked ship! I like all the humor you were able to put in with the figs, it really brought the MOC to life.

[Rast]

Thanks, and yes, it took e an awful long time to get it just right.

Especially getting it smashed in the rock...

I actually pretty much did half of a viking ship, so most of it is buried in the rock.

[Maxim I]

Very well done!!!

I think it's the first time I saw a wrecked ship like this!

[robuko]

This is a very original entry, I really like the idea and the play features. The build is a little blocky for my tastes in certain areas (the floor and the area behind the prow), but your minifig use and posing is really excellent. I am a bit confused by the waterfall, as it implies the shipwreck is geologically very old - but it's a neat feature. The High King of Historica will be very intersted to learn about this Mitgardian King, and so will the Prime Minister and Jarl . Very nice build and good luck!

Thanks!

BTW, when I said king I meant Sirens-of-Titan

I suppose he is not exactly king...

EDIT: Yes, the ship is supposed to be very old, too.

At as old as Uridius's greatgrandfather

Nice entry! I really like the concept of the Mitgardian funeral ships, and the ships for the site. Great idea with the salmon swimming upstream! Lots of activity in this build - nice job!

Thanks, rogueang!

I got the idea of funeral ships from the Vikings, and since I though Mitgardians are more-or-less in the same hemisphere/situation with the Vikings, I though it wouldn't be bad idea.
