Sorry if I'm echoing others here, but this is a real stunner. That is an impressive amount of med. flesh, and a more impressive use of the limited number of pieces in that color. The gold and blue here really makes this pop, too. I love the two sides of this build - the impenetrable facade and the lively interior scene. So cool to see the doors open too! Also, welcome to GoH, I know the Kaliphlinites will love to have you!

Fantastic micro scene, my favorite from you yet! Love the fall colors, the huge elevation changes and rock bridge. Expertly done.

Gorgeous swamp, I really love lush, boggy builds like this. Those trees in particular are too cool, hope you don't mind seeing a few of those in my next swamp build!

Not sure if anyone's said this yet( ), but brilliant idea with the skeleton bridge! This attack stinks of the Black Spire, surely this is a false flag attack designed to provoke suspicion between free Nocturnus and Kaliphlin.

Great interior scene, the floor and bed are very well done!

The rats of most cities surround themselves with jewels and fancy clothes and then call themselves men; for the rats of Skavenport, it is hard work and ferocity in battle that matters in the end. True men these rats of Skavenport are! Sweet build Jacob, the odd angles and attention to detail really make this scene come to life. The sense of dimension here is excellent, I feel as I could easily get lost wandering through Skavenport's streets. The description was equally enjoyable. Great to see Skavenport come to life and stand as another testament to Nocturnus' greatness!

Fantastic landscaping and rockwork as always, a real treat to look at. The color usage is awesome and the off-angle walls add some sweet dimension to this build. The story of course is enjoyable and I really enjoy how much you're fleshing out your character. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do that myself lately! In any case, splendid stuff Adair!

Wow, what an excellent and vibrant entry! I love the mix of classic and more intricate architecture here, and the windmill is especially impressive (that roof!). The whole scene is very lively, great looking figs too! A very nice entry, great work!

Nice action/posing!

Truly gorgeous urban scene, Bregir! The architecture here is very elegant, I especially love the inset windows on the college and the shrine. The funeral procession is such a wonder touch and really well executed (the second photo is especially well-done). I'm also very much enjoying this story as continued from the messengers build. Lovely tie-in to both the Kali Civil War and Kali architecture. Also, I hope Beorthan does not hold too many hard feelings against the Desert King. Just business, ya know? The Desert King would certainly invite Beorthan back to Kaliphlin under better circumstances, especially if he is willing to share the wealth of his great city!

Such a vibrant and well photographed build, excellent work my friend. Love the curse aspect here, adds a whole other level of wickedness to those nasty Algus. Also must say the longboat designs are great and well done. The sail looks a little too even however, perhaps staggering the green/yellow plates would give the impression of the sail catching wind. Anyways, sweet build!

Amazing work dude! One of your best yet, the big and little details here are just too cool. This is such an awesome representation of Shadowmere, with the crowded bazaar, the extremely diverse residents and that fearsome Shadowmere architecture. So many great touches to appreciate here, I especially like the lush swamp and all that clever vegetation. I love all civilian depictions of Nocturnus' residents, and this is definitely among the top. So cool to see the normal life and activities of urban dwellers in Nocturnus. The skeleton stag is especially awesome. The interior scene is fantastic as well, very nicely decorated and designed. The mosaic floor is particularly impressive and I like that kneeling soldier. Your photography is always good and very engaging. I especially like the second to last pic, with Jorrith and his army marching away with Shadowmere in the background. I would hate to be among the Black Spire goons who ran into this army! It is encouraging to see that, while Raavage betrays his allies and sets them upon themselves, the Nocturnian resistance grows ever stronger.

Great idea SK, I definitely plan to take part!

Wicked figs and background, Captain Nemo. Very unique group and an awesome fit for Nocturnus. Can't wait to see these guys in action! Also, Dr. Cogg has never looked more ready to kick some megablocks. Very cool update! Welcome also to new members Nagol and Terrowin! Nagol, that's a great looking sigfig and the battle scene looks superb! Terrowin, sweet little build for your character presentation, I look forward to seeing more of you guys around! Welcome to the darkest, cruelest, evilest and most awesome guild in Historica! I think it's an awesome character, and no more unbelievable than half-vampires, 500-year-old undead liches, Rat Warriors or crazy swamp people. I think most of the big wigs in Nocturnus are immortal, which doesn't mean they can't die, just that they're blessed/cursed with living forever. Like the Highlander.

Well, while we wait for the results, here's something else very cool to chew on: Cat. C personal points from the Desert King team! Look at that amazing effort and collaboration!

I'd rather have you guys double check it before I post it publicly here.

Nice little scene, great landscaping and photography.

Beautiful work! Lovely landscaping and castle, I particularly like how the vegetation has grown around its walls. The castle design is really cool, especially with the angled walls and the tan/green sections of the towers. Hope to see you around more!

Another sweet build, the angled landscaping is really neat! The building and tower look fantastic as well, and the smoke rising from the chimney is an awesome touch. Really enjoying these depictions of Kyrrath!

Brilliant build Lord Dan, love the different layers and details inside. The SNoT floors/ceilings are great, as is the texturing. Each workshop has its own awesome details - the crossbow, worktable and forge are very nice touches. Superb build man, definitely fun to look through!

Nice amount of action on this small base, and sweet posing!

Sweet builds Carson, glad to see you back! Both interior scenes here are excellent. The lamp, SNoT floor and texturing stand out in the magistrate's office. The chapel scene however is just perfect, the rug, chandelier, and small/large statues are really nice touches. The roof is probably my favorite detail, great work on that!

Yes, Ch. IV is wrapping up and Ch. V is in Nocturnus and should start in a couple of months. So now would be a perfect time to come back, we'd love to have you Captain Nemo!

Another beautiful scene with a fantastic story, creative details and an excellent color palette. I love the tenseness of the battle and the set up for a sequel, The Return of the Mummy General. I liked the mixed celebration after the battle, and the photography does a good job of selling the story. Your lighting is looking good but I think the photo of the overall MOC is looking a little underexposed. The build itself is great, the off-angle road is really neat. The ruins, rockwork and pine trees are serious eye candy as well. Beautiful!

The death of that Algus warrior must have left quite the impression for the others to turn and run. Perhaps those icy fiends aren't so tough now that things are heating up! Great work on the outpost and scene, SK! Love the tower and interior scene but the snowscaping steals the show. The varying levels of snow, the rough and smooth parts (as if windblown and packed snow) and the way it spills over the road is just perfect. Fantastic build, very nice to look at!

Very cool! As mentioned, the path is great and I really like how the keep is set into the mountain. I like the jagged look of the island and especially that little boat.
