The Algus Saga: A long forgotten enemy

[Ecclesiastes]

"Am I dreaming?"

"No, I'm seeing it as well. That's the Thorshaven beacon that's being lit."

"We have to warn the commander!"

The watchman just finished his sentence and before he even set foot towards the commander he heared him yelling:

"Lit the beacon, lit the beacon! They're here!"

Seeing the white creatures suddenly coming from the icy waters did send chills down his spine. It was true. They were back again. And already here! They must have figured out were the beacons are for. And now they're here to break the beacon chain. Which should be prevented at any cost.

"Protect the beacon! Let's send these beasts back to the Frozen Beyond!

That is one mighty beacon, great work

[Jacob Nion]

Wow! Amazing texture! And great use of that baseplate. I'm no fan of them, but it works well here.

[Lord Vladivus]

Awesome build- nice incorporation of the baseplate!

[Kai NRG]

Fantastic build, that baseplate works super well! Great job on the texturing throughout, lots of really neat details!

[Garmadon]

Fantastic beacon Ecc, I'm really digging the color-scheme here and the baseplate works great! The dwarf statues are really superb as well!

[mccoyed]

Amazing build. Such a huge beacon!

[LittleJohn]

Amazing beacon, Ecc! The colors flow together beautifully and as others have said, the incorporation of the baseplate is brilliant!

[Legocity2713]

Stunning. Awesome use of the baseplate too. I am thoroughly impressed. :thumbup:

The huge beacon complex is exceptionally good, from the architecture to the colors to the textures. The different greys and tans really look good together when arranged as artfully as this. The overall design fits the limitations of the baseplate very well - but the lack of detailing on the base really looks odd to me when supporting such a richly detailed build. Sure, the built-in steps are nice, but otherwise the base detracts more than it adds to my eyes. Perhaps a less-detailed build would match it better. At any rate, the overall project is very good and the beacon itself is marvelous. Excellet work!

[Blufiji]

I gotta agree with Captain Dee on this one regarding the base plate. I feel that a flat base plate with patches of snow and green here and there would really work for this build better. I like the beacon itself as well as the texturing and the dwarven statues. Well done overall sir.

[Exetrius]

Dang! Amazing build once again Ecc, very cool structure!

[Stelario]

Really nice build, I'm not a big fan of raised BP's but this one definitely fit in. I like how you used the curved slopes on the wall.

[Captain Braunsfeld]

Excellent build - quite amazing that it works with that baseplate!

[mrcp6d]

Quite the impressive MOC Ecc! I like the bits of tan in the structure, they tie the baseplate in nicely.

[Full Plate]

Wow, impressive! Very nice architecture and I also like the statues a lot. Great job!

[Gunman]

I really like the color scheme...! Nice use of the baseplate too!

[Ecclesiastes]

Thanks for the comments guys! And using the raised baseplate was a tricky thing to do. Good to read the majority things is fits well!

Epic beacon and such a good use of that baseplate The color combinations and architecture are stunning

[kevkipo]

Like i said on Flickr, Stunning.

[Gideon]

Unexpected to see you use a baseplate like that (I actually had not seen that one before at all)

Great use of it nevertheless

I also like the shape of the beacon tower very much.

[Balbo]

Wow, I love the raised baseplate in there . The beacon and the colour scheme are great, too.
