Yzalirk Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) This is a counter to MKJoshA's Monkey Business guerrilla. ​Shortly after a new city pledged their allegiance to Ulandus and the First Centurion, a Dwarven officer has been stationed their as a recruiter and as a defender. Surely enough, he's spotted something rather peculiar - a monkey running around with what appears to be stolen gold. His first instinct was to put down the monkey, which he has down so with a single swipe of a steel longsword. Surely enough, it was revealed that the monkey was in a scheme to steal gold from Ulandian sympathizers. The monkey's owner and trainer has not been found. He has probably crawled into a cave like the rest of the Desert King scum should be. Here's an additional picture with a closer view.

LordDan Posted March 29, 2015 Wow that was a quick counter! It appears we will have to find a new source of revenue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted March 29, 2015 It was a quick counter, but it seems to be a different monkey (colour of paws). I personally do not approve MOCs in which monkeys are harmed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yzalirk Posted March 29, 2015 Wow that was a quick counter! It appears we will have to find a new source of revenue Indeed it was. Perhaps monkeys shouldn't be used to gather coin. It was a quick counter, but it seems to be a different monkey (colour of paws). I personally do not approve MOCs in which monkeys are harmed... I figured someone who mention that. To be fair, MKJoshA used yellow minifigs as I use fleshies. His monkey used fleshy hands, mine doesn't. It seems like opposites in a way it makes sense that the monkeys aren't direly similar to the people. That was a very quick counter I like the SNOT floor Thanks LJ! Indeed it was quick. Ulandus doesn't tolerate thieves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adair Posted March 29, 2015 That was really quick! I literally had both in my Inbox! Nice job anyhow, though adding some architectural detail probably would help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yzalirk Posted March 29, 2015 That was really quick! I literally had both in my Inbox! Nice job anyhow, though adding some architectural detail probably would help. Speedy! Nice though! I would have added more but the way MKJoshA presented his seemed like it was inside a building. Think of this one being inside a large hallway. But thanks you guys.

Robin Creations Posted March 29, 2015 Nice. I like the feeling emanating from this . My only tip would be to use poster board for the background. Yours looks a bit crumpled, but I like how there is no seam in the background. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MKJoshA Posted March 29, 2015 Oh no! My poor monkey! I was really hoping he wouldn't end up dead But I suppose that's what I get for sending him into battle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yzalirk Posted March 30, 2015 Nice. I like the feeling emanating from this . My only tip would be to use poster board for the background. Yours looks a bit crumpled, but I like how there is no seam in the background. Thanks Robin! The background, believe it or not, is just a spare bed sheet I found! Oh no! My poor monkey! I was really hoping he wouldn't end up dead But I suppose that's what I get for sending him into battle There are plenty more monkeys to be recruited!
