Apple Pi Posted July 23, 2013 Hi everyone! This is my entry for the VII LugBrasil Castle Challenge, wich is about building a non grey castle or fortification and also a freebuild for the LCC. It's called "The Desert Rose" and is located somewhere at the Leradda Desert in Loreos.

Wedge09 Posted July 23, 2013 That's great :thumbup: I really like it, the use of the dark red for the walls is a uncommon but great choice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted July 23, 2013 Tremendous build Even in bley this would be superb, but the dark red makes it even better! The landscape sets the fortress off well and the small dark green roof looks great Reminds me of these beauties, except for smaller: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tchuk-norst Posted July 23, 2013 This build is picturesque, that's the only word I can think of to describe it. The minute details really make this something special. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted July 23, 2013 Great build. I really like the water effect. And clever use of the POTC scabbard as reins. I considered doing something like that before, but never tried it out. I'm glad it works. I may have to use it in the future. I had a different set-up for my reins which also works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infernum Posted July 23, 2013 Wow! Incredible build! I love the stream! Nice usage of the stone lion head element! I think my favorite part is the little guard house with dark and olive green cheese slopes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
