Good, I was a little confused about that part, but this clears it up

Feels very swampish interesting piece use for the waterfall too

Cool truck! The suspension is a neat feature Good work on the overall shape as well

I build a lot, so MOCs and sets are recycled quickly. If I don't need the pieces from a set/MOC I leave it together.

Exactly what I think I decided on black partially because of the numerous pieces I have in it. Glad you like the ballista and statue

This should be interesting @kabel: I hope you can manage to get an entry in

Thanks Kabel I probably have more spare time than most, but things come together pretty quickly

Thanks Cara, that means a lot After looking at the roof you guys are right; needs some snow Thanks, angles make things so much more interesting in my opinion. Though non-angled builds can be just as impressive if done properly. Glad you like it

The border is impressive as is the rockwork Glad to see de Gothia coming north, maybe he will get to meet Sir Glorfindel

Wow If you hadn't said it was purist I would have never guessed. Very impressive

Glad to see another entry

Thanks

Finally someone is doing it in white Some SNOT tiles (check out Derfel Cadarn's guide for example) would help add detail to the wall. Looking good so far

Thanks Thanks, I thought about adding snow to the roof, but got lazy and decided it would just melt off quickly anyhow

Very impressive! The rounded section fits nicely, and the brickwork is great The roofs are an interesting shape as well, looking forward to seeing the interior

That is a lot of elves Great job on the landscaping

Congratulations to the winners And good work to everyone else who entered as well Looks like we still need to rack up some points for Mitgardia

With the DROW situation escalating and rumours of something having gone terribly wrong after the finding of the elemental crystals Sir Glorfindel goes to secure the help of some dwarves. They have always been loyal to Jarl Nibelung, but for the most part take little interest in affairs outside their territory. Sir Glorfindel hopes to gain their support for Mitgardia on a more active level. This tower is guarding a road to a dwarven city. I didn't enter the first challenge, so I made this to remedy the situation After seeing Fat Tony's and SoT's dwarven builds I wanted to try something in that style. It was very fun building something in a different style, and I am happy with the result. The ballista is functional, you just pull back a slide and let it go to fire it. Here is a link to a video of it in action (sorry about the quality, I may take a better one soon): It also has a full interior, and no visible doors Now on to some pictures I hope you enjoyed looking and any comments or criticism welcome!

Nice looking ship! And the remote controlled hatches work great Impressive work

Creepy story Now I want to see some pictures

Excellent rockwork and cool scorpion Does the spartan prevail?

Excellent as always The hives work wonderfully, as do the shutters

The blinds, monitor, and chair all work so well Great scene

I would say that ships are harder in general (I have built lots of castles and will be doing my first small boat soon) but you can make castles that are just as hard. That being said it really varies from MOC to MOC, and what your interests are. After building a fair amount of castle creations I am quite confident in that theme, I'm sure after I build a few ships I will be confident in that as well. My dad always says "Nothing is hard once you've done it" it's just experimenting with what works and what doesn't

Glad to hear Challenge 4 will be up soon It will be fun to see who won for each guild Will be taking pictures of my dwarven tower soon, possibly today My dwarven tower is up: Link to topic: My link
