Finally finished The city of Jokkvik

Post by jokkna »

This city has been in creation for almos two years ( with looong breaks). The reason for the un-finished roof on the kings hall and on the clock -tower is that I would need to mke a purchase from bricklink. But right now the Icelandic Króna isn't doing so well so I can't org-der any roof pieces.
Originally built by the ancient elven empire this city was destroyed and then rebuilt by the newly formed kingdom of men and elves.

Whoa,very nice.
It's good to see someone who loves little details as much as me. I really enjoy all the opening interiors for your houses and the personality and destinction given your troops (there's not a lot you can do with crownies) is commendable. Nice little backstory too.
Keep it up,

That looks great jokkna. I love the busy feeling with this, it seems very much like a real city would feel, and the detail on each building is awesome! I particularly like the timber house, very well done. It would be great to see it with the competed roofs. :) I like the back story too, very nice. Keep up the great work!

I really like this, it gives me inspiration to do my own town, which Ive always seen as being something that has to span the entire table, but this gives the right effect and is a lot smaller than I would have said I wanted my town to be (that makes sense to me, dunno if I put myself across! :roll: )

:D

Very spiffy. It really does have a busy town feeling. Nice back story it does set the stage for the MOC well. Some of the color combos are interesting as well.
