Inside Kaliphlin Day 15 The Warrior's Wreath

[Kai NRG]

For the beginning of today's tour, we'll stop by Queenscross to remember those who fell in it's glorious Defense. And at one of the tombs a knight mourns his comrade, who fell in the battle.

The knight with his shield and all:

C&C are welcome! This is my last free-build for June so I hope you enjoy it!

[Gideon]

Alas, there are way too many tombs of dear friends around Queenscross!

OoC: I like your use of that broken (?) bamboo leaf! The base adds to the sorrowful atmosphere, but I think this vignette would have worked fine on its own without a base as well.

[Ecclesiastes]

Alas, there are way too many tombs of dear friends around Queenscross!

Yes indeed, time for revenge...

It adds indeed to the atmosphere. Is it in an oil field?

I can definitely see Legonardo's influence in the irregular base and landscaping Cool tree and I agree with Gideon, the use of the broken bamboo leaf is superb

The colour palette and the shape of the tree really add to the mournful air. I like the olive minifig havd, it really works well here. Too many have fallen.

Nice small vignette :thumbup:

[Erynlasgalen]

Nice little vignette, you captured the sorrow really well.

[Maxim I]

Cool vignette !!!

It's always wise to stop a minute and honour our fallen brothers!

[Kai NRG]

Thanks to all!

Yes, it's broken. Figured I might as well put it to use... Yes, it would probably have worked well, but somehow I just decided to add a base...

Well no that wasn't exactly my thought... I just figured it might look good and I felt like the vig needed a bit more color (though still a dark tone).

Thanks, I was a bit worried people would wonder about a flower growing off a leaf but it seems I needn't have been concerned! Yes, I mentioned it on Flickr but not here, Legonardo and also Andared of Lenfald's grave build were both inspirations!

Great build. I like the tree design and the grave area. I hadn't considered using hands before for any of those purposes, so well done there!

[Mike S]

Excellent build! Love that plant by the tombstone!

Thanks! Hands are a nice way to get around not having any smaller dismally colored plants...

Thanks! It's my first try at a tree like that and I'm very happy with it!

[Garmadon]

I really like the Legonardo feel here: The irregular base, the colors and the tomb are all nice.

Nice leaf-flower too
