CCC XX: 6079 Dark Forest Fortress Revamp

Post by LittleJohn »

Built for the Return of the G.O.A.T. contest. I chose to revamp set 6079, Dark Forest Fortress. My version features all the functions of the original, including hidden treasure in the bottom of the carriage, a working ramp to access the stable, working catapult, and of course a crashing tree function to barricade the path. I also added another hidden treasure chest underneath the stable. I’ve always liked the Dark Forest sets, so it was a fun challenge revamping one – though I admit trying to emulate the look of a raised baseplate was certainly a challenge at times!

You did a great job overall, and recreating the baseplate in particular.
