Captain Braunsfeld Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) Garmadon, Kai NRG and Captain Braunsfeld proudly present: The Story so far: Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6: Chapter 7: Chapter 8: you are here - Title "For Fernando" The Eslandolean Royalists appeared to be a stronger faction than previously expected. Another royalist rallye took place just a little later (cf. Chapter 7) in Terreli: The message was clear: restore the power of King Fernando! Spectators and onlookers were flabberghasted! ... and then they all sang that song again: Can you hear the drums Fernando? There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando! They were shining there only for thee For royalty Fernando! The crowd cheered! (to be continued) This episode was brought to you by "Lewisham's finest ham"! What? You advertise for that mean Count Lewisham? That is impossible! And what's wrong with that? I need to know. 'Cos here I go again. We stand with King Fernando! Get thee hence to ... Alright, I am leaving. But don't underestimate us. The Republic is not dead! ... that was strange.... Spoiler For those of you who may have wondered: there are two (deliberate) song references in the text. One is to the Abba song "Fernando" and one later quotes a line from "Silly Love Songs".

NOD Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) Hasta Mañana I like the squirrel! Power to the King? Is there a revolution in the Empire of Eslandola? There are rumours: "In the Second Terraversan War, Eslandola was just Corrington's henchman." The marching people with the writing on the flags are well done. I like the architecture of the houses. I particularly like the windows and window frames. Edited May 1, 2022 by NOD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kai NRG Posted May 2, 2022 Power to the king!! But advertising money from Count Lewisham. Best of both worlds! The signs are fun. Neat window design too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evancelt Posted May 3, 2022 I've been admiring this one on Flickr since you first posted it - great job! I love the vibrant colors, parade, and greencoat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff of Clubs Posted May 3, 2022 Those frontages are great and the mob captures the discontent. Perhaps we will get an 'Assault on the Tuileries' style MOC at the end of this mess!?! Been toying with that one but Oleon seems a bit too stable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I particularly like the windows and window frames. Those songs... could't resist if I wanted to... Politically something seems to be going in in Eslandola! The writing was just Photoshop. So I can reuse my white flags The window style was pirately borrowed from a guy on flickr called "Sleepless Night". On 5/1/2022 at 10:20 PM, Fraunces said: indeed..

I was more concentrated on ground animals. On 5/2/2022 at 10:03 PM, Kai NRG said: Power to the king!! But advertising money from Count Lewisham. Best of both worlds! The signs are fun.
