For all you bull fans out there

Post by Dragoman »

I don't know if any of you have seen this but I thought it was worth posting .

Man, I really love the detail with the landscaping. I hope some day I can accumulate the pieces I need to make something similar to this.

That creation first appeared about two years ago. I'd forgotten about it.

I agree with you that the landscaping is great. If you go to the main directory you'll see lots of detailed photos, plus the exploded view when the top levels are removed! A lot of work went into this one.

Thanks for highlighting this one.

Doing a quick search on Lugnet finds that this MOC was built by Wilson Raska in 2002. Here's a link to the
original post on Lugnet:

That place is drop-dead gorgeous!

The colours are well-coordinated, it's well-built, it has lots of small details, it has a unique open-air campish-type feeling, it fits the factions it's hosting perfectly.

Can you tell I like it?

I remember when this was posted on Lugnet. It was quite cool. However, none of the links are working for me (or Erikut either looks like). Is it working for everyone else?

Yes, the links are working for me.

Here's the main directory "out loud":
http://www.ragnarok7.com/Tauros%20Outpost/

Interestingly, if I try to go straight to www.ragnarok7.com I get a 404 error. But with the extra extension I get the directory of files (no thumbnails :( ).

Nope, still doesn't work for me. But since it works for most everyone else, it must be me. Odd, because I have been all over the place on online today and have had no other problems. Thanks, Alan.

Looks very much like ancient ruins to me. I'll admit that at first glance the whole thing kinda seems rushed and messy but taking the time to look at the detail and planning that went into the whole thing one realises that this is a truly uniquely beauifull MOC.
