viracocha Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 William Tell is a folk hero from Switzerland. He is famous as man who refused to bow down to the hat set up by Gessler, the newly appointed Austrian Vogt of Altdorf. He was arrested and forced to shoot an apple off his son's head with a crossbow, if he did not both he and his son would be killed. Tell shot the apple off the son's head and did not harm his son. He is considered a legend and his actions helped form Switzerland as a nation. Quote

Lasse Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Very nice MOC with many great details. I especially like the guards and the man in the chair. Great use of a banana Quote
viracocha Posted April 7, 2014 Author Posted April 7, 2014 Thank you, guys! And my favorite character is the boy. I have build him first. Quote
Kintobor Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 This is a great little build! I love all the figures, and the folk story it's inspired from is very interesting! There's some neat techniques going on here, and I love the knights and the king in his throne. You really captured the scene, job well done! Quote
