CCCXI - Feldoran Castle

Post by Deviet »

Feldoran Castle has been guarding the river Tjorsak for centuries. Standing next to a heavily used trade route it is a smugglers nightmare.

Hey everyone!

I've finally finished my first entry for the CCCXI! It took me 3 months and almost my entire collection to build this.
I wish I had more time to build, I really wanted to compete for the MB title, but I just can't find the time to build that much.
Now it's time to start sorting and hopefully get one more entry ready in time.

Thanks for looking!

Wonderful build! Great castle design, the steps up from the little docks/quay look lovely, all of the rockwork is excellent, and I love the water technique you used as the base. My favorite bit, though, is your tree design; very organic. Great job!

Stunning Build! You have done a masterful job on this Deviet! The rockwork is superb and I love the waves/foam crashing against the shoreline. The dark red bushes look great as does the other foliage. and the pathway has a nice natural curve towards the castle. The castle itself is awesome. :D The angles are great and she is beautifully detailed. Better watch out for the outlaws hiding in the forests though!

Happy Building,
Sir Valiant~

Fantastic build! I particularly like the large gate, staircase and the wavy edge to your water. I have the same struggle that you mentioned - it's very hard to find time to build.

Incredible. Detailed yet clean, textured yet smooth. I love the base, the curves really convey a sense of water; the mottling is perfect in my opinion; and the foliage is well done--both the grass and those trees!

The uneven base and the rugged cliffs looks fantastic! I really like your tall trees and the caste layout and design.
