Tomsche Posted June 3, 2015 Varton sat in his small wooden shack, gazing at the horizon. He had heard stories of a big civil war far down in the south, where a certain Desert King was taking over the rule of Kaliphlim, but that was not of any concern to the North these days. The Algus had been assaulting his homelands for months now, and only recently did they learn the name of the foe... Then, his mouth fell open... He gazed into the distance. It was true, it is true, it will come to pass. He jumped up, grabbed his oily torch and ran onto the top of the hill. Uridius Keep! The Beacon of Uridius Keep is lit! The North awakens! He lighted up his own torch and set the Beacon of Merak ablaze. Flames roared upwards in the big bonfire, and the word would continue to travel! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exetrius Posted June 3, 2015 That fire looks good, but the base would look better if it were more SNOTted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LittleJohn Posted June 3, 2015 That fire effect is great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon Posted June 3, 2015 That is one big beacon fire! Great job here, Tomsche! I do agree though that the ground could probably use a bit of texturing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Noel- Posted June 3, 2015 Yeah, that is a lot of fire! I should start building for Mitgardia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Dee Posted June 3, 2015 Now THAT is my kind of beacon. All it needs is a little bacon to go with it... Seriously, the volume of fire looks appropriate considering its purpose but I wonder how the man is able to comfortably stand so close to such a raging inferno. The rocks and base are somewhat simple and I assume the fire already melted any snow that might have been around it. Good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blufiji Posted June 3, 2015 You can see that from space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomsche Posted June 3, 2015 To be honest, I had to cheat with the base. The old knees are giving up and I've spend more time then I wanted in hospitals and scanners the past months, that this is actually the base I was preparing for my Weathertop display 'pre dress up' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted June 3, 2015 A lot of fire - why not adding some smoke? ... another beacon.... something is going on in Mitgardia and I have no clue about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted June 6, 2015 Should be able to see that fire from quite a distance! Cool rockwork, though I think a path up to the beacon would be a very nice addition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrcp6d Posted June 6, 2015 You can see that from space. Indeed! I agree with SK about the path or even a ladder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balbo Posted June 8, 2015 Very nice work on the beacon. I like the fire effect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Very nice fire! I think however that the rockwork and ground would need a tad more attention. Edited June 8, 2015 by Gideon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MassEditor Posted June 8, 2015 Woah, now that's a bonfire! Nice work on that Tomsche, though I agree a bit more landscaping or just a path would have helped spice this up a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
