[COR - FB] Spudkirk Raid

Recommended Posts

Medium Commercial in Spudkirk

Pillage and carnage, Spudkirk was dealt a heavy blow last September. Reports have been completed, showing a devastating loss to correspondence letters, scientific notes, much needed building equipment, and food supplies.

While this may have been a major setback, what was worse was the indiscriminate slaughter of townspeople, many women and children killed, and these losses cannot be so easily recovered.

With heavy hearts, the brave and hardy Corries look back upon this event and strive to learn from their mistakes. Already, multiple defence stations have been erected, and the town will not let this be the final chapter in the story of Spudkirk. God save the Queen.

 

(This build is also the post office and warehouse at the bottom of the rocky path up the settlement)

What caught immediately my attention is the brick built baseplate, way better than the moulded one.

The tan house looks good, and the white bunker is nicely built too.

I concur regarding the base. That is beautifully done with both color and texture. The tan house and lamppost look really good, and the minifig posing implies movement really well. This is a good way to illustrate the disastrous events.

I really like the use of colour here. The absence of many greens make it seem really deathly, and the dark grey adds to the oppressive feel. Very appropriate.

Yep, have to agree with the comments above, that rockwork is awesome! The buildings are great too and the minifigs well posed. Great street lamp design aswell. Are the guys with bandannas the Lotii? Hopefully I'll have my Spudkirk build done soon to add to strengthening the colony.

As others have saidd, that rockwork is fantastic. I think my favorite part is the white building; there's just enough texture there and it looks war-torn.

Brittle technic for the street lamp, but it works

Wow, that's some amazing landscaping and rockwork! Wonderful scene too! :thumbup:

Good to hear Spudkirk is getting it's defenses heightened. Hopefully the raids will end after that!

Thank you! I hope so too!

Thanks! And yeah, I looked for Lotii soldiers but couldn't find any references.

Thank you! My nearest Lego store had plenty of them so I picked up a couple.
