Jakorin Swiftsword

Impressive work! I like your Mitgardian figs a lot. Well done!

Wow, great work! Now that's a massive wall!

Well done! The rockwork is superb!

Oh yeah, sweet contest! This is something to look forward to in the coming month when I have time. :)

NOOOOO!!! Now I'll never win another challenge! But it's nice to see you chose the best guild! Welcome!

What's everyone's opinion on me switching to yellow instead of fleshie? I'm leaning more and more towards it all the time for some reason.

Thanks, Alfadas! Thank you! Thanks! And good thinking about the roof. Thanks Graham! Thanks, me too! I couldn't resist putting the dwarves in a tight spot. Thanks, man! Thanks Vladivus!

Built for Category B for the Men's side. Jakorin was well aware of the danger that the dwarves' presence created. But time was short, and by the time he could deliver the message to the elves, the dwarves might have already decided to strike. A risk that could not be taken. So, he concocted a plan that would not promote bloodshed. At least not right away, that is. Jakorin, disguised as a simple Anvilon soldier along with a disguised War Minister Charles, approached the dwarves camp as "deserters". Upon arrival, they told the dwarven leaders of mounds of gold and gems stashed away in the Anvilon treasury. That, naturally, caught their attention. Leaving a minor official in charge of the camp, the three dwarf brothers departed with the "deserters" to a place they liked to simply call The Vault Tower. Charles:(Whispers to Jakorin) Are you sure you want to do this, sir? Jakorin:(Whispers back) Don't worry, I had our riches moved to another location months ago. Nothing in that tower but cobwebs and termites. 1st Dwarf:(Panting) Alright, you men! This tower better be it, 'cus I'm tired of walkin'! 2nd Dwarf: Remember, this treasure of your people is to be split evenly down the line between us. No funny business! Jakorin: None at all, friend! But as you can see, the foolish ruler of Anvilon cannot afford a simple ladder. But fear not, for I have brought a grapple! Jakorin fiddles with the rope, uncoiling it slowly as the eager dwarves watch on. Then, he begins to swing the rope in a wide arc until he slings it with enough momentum to get firmly hooked on the platform above. He tugs a few times to ensure its safety. Jakorin: Alright! Looks like we're all se- 3rd Dwarf: Step aside, hooligan! My brothers and I will climb this rope first! Don't want you cutting the rope from above as we climb. The dwarves didn't give Jakorin any time for a rebuttle, for they all hungered for the sight of foreign gold for the taking. Instead, they all hustled up the rope, ignoring the small torch Jakorin pulled from his bags. Once at the top, the three dwarves looked down on the men with mild interest. 1st Dwarf: Well come on, then, idiots! We're wasting time! Hey! Wait! What are you doing!? Jakorin had lit the torch and set its flame to the rope. The rope ignited instantly, the flames snaking its way faster than the dwarves could pull it up. Soon, three-fourths of the rope had vanished, leaving little for the dwarves to hope for. 3rd Dwarf: You treacherous snakes!!!! I'll have you heads for this! Jakorin: I'm the snake?! You're in our lands, camping on our soil! A sure prelude to war! This way, no one gets hurt and your army will be stalled without you for a while. Don't worry, We stored some food in that tower. But, its on the top floor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, thanks for looking! Category B was really fun to build for and this turned out to be my tallest build yet!

Like I said on Flickr, simply stunning! Well done!

Wow fantastic! That purple speeder really catches the eye!

Wow, so soon! Great challenge!

What a great build! I love the the whole "city" feel. Great work!

Great work! Love the colors you chose for that wall.

Thanks! Using the head that way literally just came to me on a whim.

Nice builds and excellent story!

Wow! Nice job! The house is just fantastic!

Excellent! The detailing is very admirable!

A simple but effective build. Well done!

Great work. Each layer is just fantastic!

This build is great! That roof is just mind blowing!

Excellent work! I love C&H mocs!

Excellent work de Gothia! Your work is easily identifiable and lovely to look at.

Yeah, you're probably right.

I think its good they are bringing back pirates. I never got around to buying any back in the day, so this is a good chance for me to finally do that. Although I do have to say these sets look a little bit kiddy-ized. The only reason I would even consider The Brick Bounty is for the sails so I could make my own ship. But other that and, of course, the figs, I don't find it appealing.

Oh, this is awesome! Well done!
