Thats a really cool Moc, those poor merfolk wont stand a chance against those bad guys! The island looks really realistic to me :)
Will you keep all the atlantean stuff togheter so that you can make an layout?

I am looking forward to see more :wink:

Well, I really think I ought to say my honest opinion...
That would be something like: The mermaid looks too brickbuilt, which she obviously is".
If I were you I'd consider making another design for the fish tail. :wink:

Of course you've got to be honest :D.
Yeah I know they are brick built,but I can't seem to find a better way to build tails. If you have any ideas, please let me know.

In this article, Bruce has a fantastic collection of examples of MOC fantasy creations. Scroll down the page, and you'll see a section on mer-people. You might find a few ideas...

Thanks Formendacil. Other ones are built mostly the way I did. I think I'll stick to my merfolk.

I think you should go for the last one suggested in that article. The one with the 1x2 torso without arms seems to be the best and most simple imo.

I think this is very good, very....exotic just like Atlantis was described. As for the mermaids I also think their tales are to brickbuilt you could kill someone with that if you slapped hard enough! :wink:

I think it looks good, espeicelly the way the island is like sloped and rockish, not just flat.
But it would look better if you changed the mer-folk so there not as sqareish :)

Nice little violent creation. I like the choice of the torsos. Only one question: what are the merfolk doing on land? Wouldn't it be really easy for them to escape by swimming away underwater? :)
