mpoh98 Posted October 1, 2013 New Era of Weapons by mpoh98, on Flickr 2013 MocOlympics Round 2: Matthew Oh verses Chris Stone and his awesome entry. Category: Brains vs. Brawn What unfolds when athletes and geeks go head to head? Or should I say, arm to head? Build us a battle of mind verses muscle. Who do you think would win? Hey all, Just barely got an entry in! Built it all today (except for the base) after church. Yeah, busy week and 1/2 of school and life (and also a different Avalonia backstory build, will post that soon). If you don't know how it relates to the category, basically, the "Brawn" is the castle, super thick, and impregnable (or they think). But then came along a new era of weapons, with the Chinese alchemists inventing gunpowder, and along came cannons and guns ("Brains"). So I tried new techniques, with using new pieces I got. A big inspiration was Mark Erickson and his (LCC) Restoring Justice creation. Thanks Mark! :D</i> New Era of Weapons by mpoh98, on Flickr New Era of Weapons by mpoh98, on Flickr Soli Deo Gloria!

kermit Posted October 4, 2013 Nice moc , but the fire in the middle looks like it is just stuck on there. Maybe a few black pieces surrounding the fire part would make it look like it is blended in and part of the castle wall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mutant Orc Posted October 5, 2013 It it wonderful, but on the the hand I do agree with Kermit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mpoh98 Posted October 5, 2013 Nice moc , but the fire in the middle looks like it is just stuck on there. Maybe a few black pieces surrounding the fire part would make it look like it is blended in and part of the castle wall. Thank you! I agree, that would make it look a lot better! Thanks for the advice! It it wonderful, but on the the hand I do agree with Kermit. Thanks! Yeah, so do I. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
y2kaoss Posted October 18, 2013 Great design and build--best part IMO is the "cannonball chunks" taken out of the castle wall! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
