Blufiji Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) Lord Alric Returns to the swamps of Nocturnus to do battle in the upcoming civil war. This one is for the Resistance My entry for the challenge.

Alfadas Posted September 11, 2016 That's one cool looking swamp! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
en_zoo Posted September 11, 2016 so suggestive! simply beautiful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henjin_Quilones Posted September 11, 2016 You have a way with landscaping, and really dense foliage in particular, that is just stunning. While it looks unnatural (in the sense that I have never seen a real-life swamp look like that) it seems so believable. The fungi or plants, whatever those large organisms are, are beautiful, and the glowing flowers/fruiting bodies add a splash of color to the landscape that creates distinct visual interest. I like the variation of height and the uneven edge of the land, as well as the uneven depth of the lime green water. It is a great use of light bricks, too! All in all, another impressive build from an impressive builder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exetrius Posted September 11, 2016 Great to see your extraordinary swamp vegetation again! Awesome build! I wonder who the minifig hiding in the upper right corner is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All in all, another impressive build from an impressive builder. It is unnatural in a sense that I've never seen fungi grow like that. It's more fantasy and it's a concept I've used before, though I admit I didn't get the lighting right the first time. I enjoy building that style of swamp as I feel it has a unique flavor to it. Thanks for your insight Henjin! Great to see your extraordinary swamp vegetation again! Awesome build! I wonder who the minifig hiding in the upper right corner is. Thanks Exetrius, as I said above this is my go to swamp decor lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted September 11, 2016 I am so honoured to be part of this wonder of nature I'd almost forget to comment! Awesome build, lovely vegetation and especially nice NPU on the tullbands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted September 13, 2016 One of the best use of those trans purple 1x1 cones I've seen Not to mention that bush/dome combo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubbadgrim Posted September 13, 2016 Loving that unique swampy vegetation mixed with the classic lime green water. Also digging the tan turban usage - sometimes it feels like when people use headgear for plants it can look a bit weird, but not here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blufiji Posted September 13, 2016 I am so honoured to be part of this wonder of nature I'd almost forget to comment! Awesome build, lovely vegetation and especially nice NPU on the tullbands Teamwork Titus..Teamwork! Thanks sir! One of the best use of those trans purple 1x1 cones I've seen Not to mention that bush/dome combo... I always loved those things since they came out, I wanted to make them work somewhere in the Darklands. Thanks SK! Loving that unique swampy vegetation mixed with the classic lime green water. Also digging the tan turban usage - sometimes it feels like when people use headgear for plants it can look a bit weird, but not here. I figured I'd give lime green a try, seems to work really well for you. Thanks DB! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
