    A Chinampa (small plantation) on Lake Myzec
  2. Elostirion
    Wonderful scene with a great colourchoice. The base is wonderful, as is the canoe. I think I like your sparse trees even more than mine. Also clever use of the triangular brown brick leaning to the wall.

    A on Lake Myzec (small plantation)
  4. Elostirion
    On Cascadia the people of Myzectlan (the island's indigenous people) have found a way to cultivate Lake Myzec. On their chinampas they farm maize and sweet potatoes, among other crops. In this scene two Myzec farmers are about to hunt down a colourful waterfowl, which together with the harvested maize will make for a great meal. A small contribution to the Daily Life Challenge of the Myzec. I have borrowed the Chinampa frame idea from here. These are, by the way, the trees which @Ayrlego mentioned in his fantastic boat yard. The licensing should definitely be as a small plantation, however I am not sure if I will license it myself or sell to Myzectlan. Als in the first version the MOC still had a prebuilt canoe and a white frame... Much happier with what it is now.

    The MCTC Colonial Headquarters in New Town of Salida Este (link) see more
  6. Elostirion
    In Salida Este New Town, MCTC has established a Colonial Headquarter - a center of commercial activities, political influence and also just for the mere administrative aspects of being the one of the richest Trading Companies in the New World. The scene shows two native women of Ferro Azure carrying some of their goods in barrels, three members of the dragonguard of Salida Este, a rich gentleman going to enter the MCTC building, and one of the scribes taking a break on the balcony.

    That is really, really good. Seems rather accurate, nice minifig posing, and great scene overall. Looking forward to your next MOCs!
  8. Elostirion
    Your depiction of the whole process is fantastic. The selection of minifigures, especially the facial expressions, is flawless. Super cool!

    Montoya's Diary, Day 48 Absolutely fascinating. The island we have been exploring for the past weeks is actually Celestia! That explains it all - the felines, the native cults, the temple ruins. They all make sense now, like pieces of a puzzle coming together. I hope to intensify our explorations in due time. For now we will return to civilization. Loyal young Baker hsa proven his worth as an explorer. /Montoya Baker's Diary, Day 49 We have been found! Finally. We were wandering Celestia all the time. Fontonajo's son and his expedition were looking for gems, when we ran into them. There will be a lot to write down once we are back. Also looking forward to a warm bath. /Baker Diary of Juan Alfonso Fontonajo's, Day 36 Insance Naturalists! We have been looking for gems and minerals in a small cave - we found another one of these feline heads chiseled in the stone - when suddenly out of nowhere two men appeared. Neither did they know where they were, nor could they understand that we valued gemstones over the beauty of some brushes. The two turned out to be Corlander Don Isaac Montoya and another random guy by his side, who had been stranded somewhere on the Celestian coast 48 days ago and had since then wandered aimlessly around the island. Guess they will join us on our way back to civilization. I have no clue why father values Montoya this highly. Still I should try to find out if he has discovered anything of value. This diary will have to be burnt. J

    Clever idea, and really well built. The minor elevations on the ground, and the design of both the walking path and the circle of the horse, with the grass just being slightly elevated, is fantastically done!
  11. Elostirion
    That is just another wonderful depiction from you. Superb. I would love to see (or try myself) these plants in real bricks at some point.
  12. Elostirion
    Superb idea, well executed and just a lovely and inspiring addition to the world of BoBS!

    A medium fortification for the settlement of Montario on the island of Nellisa. A little outside the harbour in the rather shallow waters leading inside the bay of Montario, on top of a small rocky elevation, the Fontonajos have setup this small gem of a fortress, protecting the rich in their houses in Montario. The design of the fortress reflects the riches of the town and its inhabitants, who surely would not the look of blank stone. No further story for this one... :-)

    What an impressive way to MOC forced perspective. Wonderful!

    I have finally finished my ship (ok, that actually was three weeks ago) and taken photos (that was today). Just will have to select the best ones and do some minor editing before uploading.

    By leadership in the ESL A-MRCA:
  18. Elostirion
    Very nice character introduction - looking forwrad to your MOCs and the continuation of your story!
  19. Elostirion
    Good thing that @Capt Wolf is taking care of the ESL A-MRCA paperwork. :-D
  20. Elostirion
    You never fail to deliver both: fantastic MOCing techniques with flawless execution AND a great presentation.

    My only concern is that those rule changes come too suddenly, with too little time to prepare. For more than 2.5 years now noone had to be afraid for his money, neither in raids nor in transfers (as you suggest). I 100% approve both changes, but you should definitely leave players with some time to prepare for this. And 2 weeks definitely is not enough, neither for fort-building nor to properly prepare for potential transport-interferences. I personally wouldn't cry if the money is robbed anyway, I just think that sudden rule changes (for the player base) are not the way to go. @Drunknok: I have not adressed any MOCs from other players, but only talked about my personal MOC quality. However if you yourself feel that you need to improve your MOC quality, I will not stand in your way.

    Quick reasoning for the Montario and Nova Terreli loans: The announcement for the next MRCA was given 14 days ago. With an A-MRCA MOC that I had to build in this short timeframe, I did not have any time left to work on fortresses or extensive troop MOCs. However fortresses (or at least large troops) are mandatory to cope with the new raiding rules. Sure, I could have pumped out quick shit-MOCs, just for the sake of the EGS, but I will not contribute to ruining BoBS with lack of quality. If leadership decides my actions are illegal, so be it, and feel free to reverse all transactions. However I see no rule forbidding what I just did, and loans have been made in the past already. If at all new rules should be future-oriented in my opinion, and if my actions give the case to clarify things, that would be ok.
