CCCXI: The Jester's Prestige

Post by Derfel Cadarn »

CCCXI Court Entertainer

For many years now, the two Jesters have competed against one another. Each trying to get one up on his rival for the entertainment of the crowd. On this day however, tensions reached boiling point and a dispute turned to a battle of the sword. Little did they realise and to the watching crowd's delight, this would turn out to be their finest act!

The dark green roofs, the slightly worn look and angles of the houses is brilliantly amazing! Love the architecture and your eye for the all the realistic details.

The style you've developed in the last year has quickly become one of my favorites out there. The angled roofs, the texture throughout, the life-like posing of the 'figs, the use of the string and just about everything else in this build is perfect. :)

Excellent build! The angles of the buildings is really well done and the green roofs look great. My favorite bit is the use of the wizard's hat. Great job!

Awesome details! ^ ^ love the water effect (using the blue Magician Hat)! I can imagine myself living in that era! Woohoo! :D

Another excellent MOC! I really like the pouring water effect with the wizard's hat and the angles on the houses.
