The Maestro Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) We had returned with haste yet we were slowed by winters wrath. After many detours we finally made it home. There was no great hurrah when we returned, the chill kept children and elderly inside and the woman were busy caring for them. As we marched, limped, hoped and rode through the streets wives emerged from houses, watching for men that would never come. It saddened him to think of the woman that would never see their beloved husbands again. Already men drifted towards taverns and inns and he knew the ale would flow as men drown their grief. He let them go, now was not the time for the discipline and order of a shoulder, now was a time for a man mourning his fallen friends. But he could not let his grief over come him. He was summoned by the heir of Historica and he would not rest until he placed his sword at the heirs feet with the might of Eolas at his back. So if you haven't noticed this is the same build as "A heroes farewell' but slightly modified which is the reason for build and photo quality which isn't the best oh well I would rather this than rebuilding the whole thing . At last, the main story is finally finished although I am hoping to do a epilogue in the near future. This has been a load of fun to make and although the builds were the main focus I enjoyed writing the story's too. It was great when I was out of ideas and had nothing to do to be able to come back and build something. So overall I am pretty happy with it and hope you guys have enjoyed these little builds The previous build in the saga: A hollow victory Edited February 5, 2017 by The Maestro Quote
Isundir Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 I haven't seen the build before so, but I really like it, is there an interior also? Quote
Henjin_Quilones Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Good news: your build still looks good! I think I actually like the winter version better, in fact, even if it is more melancholic. Great job on the snow, particularly the rooftop snow. Edited February 5, 2017 by Henjin_Quilones Quote
TitusV Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 You're becoming really good at these half-timbered tudor sections, keep it up man! Quote
LittleJohn Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Some very nice changes here, such as the bare trees, and of course the snow is excellent Quote
de Gothia Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Those houses looks great! Love the snowscaping aswell! Quote
Brandon Stark Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 This is a nice modified version. I like the snow and fig posing. Lord Brandon Stark apologizes for not being able to help Eolas during this time. Quote

Lord Brandon Stark apologizes for not being able to help Eolas during this time. Lord Maestro apoligises for not sending out an plea for help as although he did consider he ran out of time and just wanted to get the retaking done and over with. He hopes to be able to aid you in whatever way he can. Many thanks, Lord Maestro, Protector of Eolas Quote

Grover Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 I really like these buildings. In particular, the way the angles are set it gives a really solid appearance of individual houses that are crowded together, which is what I understand actual medieval cities were like. The stone on bottom and Tudor style on top works very well for this. I like the texture to the stone, too--it has enough texture to seem like it wasn't freshly built and yet it has enough solidity to appear as though it's not falling down. In the same way, the plaster texture on the Tudor also looks worn but not in disrepair. I think the statue is also a nice touch. Overall, awesome job! I hope to eventually build some structures that look this nice! Quote
