Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
Hey all,
In honor of St. Paddy's Day, this month's challenge is 'Think Green'. Take that any way you want. You could simply go with a green color scheme, or feature a faction with green livery such as the Dragon Knights or the Forestmen. Or be festive and give us some leprechauns. Or how about illustrating Gawain and the Green Knight. Maybe some architecture with a green man motif. Narnia fans could show us the Lady of the Green Kirtle, or Middle Earth fans could have hobbits drinking at the Green Dragon. Be creative!

Some folk we never forget
Some kind we never forgive
Haven’t seen the back of us yet
We’ll fight as long as we live

Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
I actaully have an idea that would fit perfectly with this theme. Now, will I ever get around to actually building it?

Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
How about Trans-Neon Green?
We pulled apart our Crystal King (which by the way is an awesome set) and made a brick built crystal dragon. This is a magical golem created by one of our wizards.

Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
I love the crystal dragon! xD That black background really sets off the bright neon green. Very, very nice.
I'll be interested to see other entries. I'd enter as well but I haven't built a thing recently. -_-;;

Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
I'm fairly certain i've gone blind. the brightness of the dragon makes flames seem superfluous. good work.

He who thinks you should look at the box that says "Quaraga" if you want to find out his username (about as useful to you as his real name). he only wants you to look so he can laugh about you looking there because he's a total smart...

Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
Weeeeeeeeell, I think I have quite the perfect idea...
Re: Monthly challenge #8: Think Green
Sunday is the first day of spring and all the trees are flowering around here, so I thought it would be fun to try my hand at something spring. The title is "Spring Time along the King's Road". The build is nothing spectacular, I tried something different with the trees to get the flowers to stand out more and be able to make the branches at more of an angle, but I still have mixed feelings on how it turned out. Anyway, enjoy!
