  1. Aaron van der Meede is a young lawyer, recently graduated from the University of Terreli. Working for an established attorney, Aaron was tasked with finding a suitable plot of land in the islands for a plantation for a wealthy client. Aaron did some research and then sailed to An Holli. There the young lawyer fell in love with a world he had never imagined. The lush countryside intoxicated him with an enthusiasm for life. Aaron quickly completed his task, finding a suitable plot for the client’s future plantation and sent word back on a fast ship. But Aaron did not return to Terreli to deliver his findings in person. Aaron could not imagine ever going back. The islands were where he belonged. He scouted the town of Weelond for a suitable place to set up shop. In the warehouse district he found what he was looking for. He found a small private warehouse with available space on the second floor. The building was a bit older than others around -- the stone walls were no longer whitewashed, and the roof was made of wooden planks, not the red tiles seen almost everywhere – but the building was sound, and the location was good. The second-floor space was really nothing more than a small apartment, but he could make it into an office. Aaron quickly found the proprietor and they came to an agreement for the young lawyer to rent the space. Aaron borrowed a ladder and literally put out his shingle. And the fates clearly approved of the young lawyer’s decision. Before Aaron even had a chance to furnish his office or send for his books, a prospective client saw his sign and came up the stairs. Aaron had his first client, surely the first of many. *** One of the things I wanted to do with this build was play with the roof technique. I think I'd adjust how I did it next time; feedback on it is appreciated. I planned on doing an interior, but I wasn't particularly happy with how the wall panels looked from the inside, and I wound up stealing the tiles I used on the floors for another build.
  2. I have no problem with the EGS License form, but all that's changed on the Free Build form is the month in the title. Here's what i get when I click on the link above: "March 2016 Free Build Form The form "February 2016 Free Build Form " is no longer accepting responses. Try contacting the owner of the form if you think this is a mistake."
  3. When will the March freebuild webform be up? Every link I can find goes to the February form, which is no longer accepting responses.
  4. Brilliant! Great initiative!
  5. The Amazing Amadeus and his One-Man Band
  6. By limiting the number of entries, you leave me no choice. I present for the Musician’s Talent Fair… The Amazing Amadeus and his One-Man Band When the Amazing Amadeus heard of the MCTC music festival, he knew he must be there for his many fans. He and his partner, Ludwig, packed their gear and caught the first ship for Bardo. Once there, they were barely onto the street beneath the festival banners before they were mobbed by their adoring fans. Mrs. Hendriksen is here. It’s one of the highlights of the year for her! Another fan waves as the band marches by. As Ludwig marches down the street playing the bagpipes, bugle, drums, and cymbals simultaneously, Amadeus works the crowd. Here one of their young fans shows his appreciation. Amadeus figures this gig will pay well. It should keep him in bananas for quite some time.
  7. A class 1A is one of the few types that is limited to one zone.
  8. So it was! Thanks for showing that.
  9. I like it (the build AND the story). I wouldn't have thought yellow and gray would work together but they do. I like the roof, the hedge, and the interior details. Well done!
  10. A fine looking ship! She appears to be a bit overladen, however, as she's riding awfully low in the water. Keep those stern windows closed!
  11. Excellent build! I'm sure getting that first row of smaller pipes to align properly was difficult.
  12. Is it bad that I'm starting to look forward to the monthly escapades of Guy's uncle?
  13. Capt Philip Janszen is looking for a big payday. He'll take his Class 2WR Lady of Madrice on the high-risk Dragon's Teeth run.
  14. Ah, I missed that there was a link in the Master Index. Thanks!
  15. I see you've immortalized the Norwegian Blue on the roof. Fun build! I'd approve if I could.
  16. Can we get this thread pinned?
  17. Great build! So much to like here. The oven is great. I like the smooth wood floor and the frame and plaster walls. Good minifig posing, and the pastries look delicious! Nice use of the honey pot piece. Well done all around! Where does the torso piece for Mrs Heldenberg come from?
  18. I love the roof! I have to study this more.
  19. I'll second Torrach Bonn for island #5.
  20. Bregir, I like your suggestion for condemned prizes. That's a good way of maintaining the story elements and historical realism while making it valuable to capture a ship.
  21. I love the design of this house! The roof, the arches and balcony ... all very Eslandolan. And nice details with the lantern and the vines, plus great landscaping wit the beach and trees. So much to like!
  22. I was very sorry to read that this ship went down in the hurricane! Hopefully her sister ship will look quite similar, although you should at least make some minor cosmetic change to differentiate them.
