Happy Building,
Sir Valiant~

Thanks guys and have a nice day!

Scores updated! I figure this challenge will offer an appreciated change in building pace:

LC12 - Serene Dreams




hear ye, hear ye!
With hope glimmering on the horizon, the Citizen's of Lenfald have started to daydream avidly about long awaited relief from the reign of oppression. Rebels and innocent citizens alike who have been locked up or forced into hiding can almost feel the sun on their face again. Children eagerly await the day when they will be able to travel to their favorite seaside retreats without fear of detainment.


Challenge
Show a daydream from the minds eye of your character, in which they are enjoying life after freedom. Think relaxing by the seaside, fishing in the stream, strolling through a beautiful woodland setting, etc.


Rules
- The emphasis of this challenge lies with atmosphere. The more the scene depicted by your build contrasts with the current oppressed lives of your characters, the higher you will score.
- As always, quality over quantity. Big does not necessarily mean best!
- Post your MOC in the "MOC forum", then post a thumbnail here with a link. Do NOT send me a PM with a link.


Scoring and Prizes
-Entering this challenge will earn you 3 points!
-The Winner receives an additional 5 points as well as 5 custom capes courtesy of ludzik!

For Great Lenfald!

Awesome local contest Frisky! A great idea right now, I love it! Also, I think it is 2 weeks, based on the date.

For the good of Lenfald, I'll offer 5 plain capes to the winner and 3 for the mention (BTW, turn around time is about a week or so for me to make them - newborn factor )Color choices - blue (dark - close to the blue from the new castle theme), grey, black, brown, green, deep red.

That is incredibly generous of you Ludzik!

Wow, this is awesome ludzik, thank you so much! Very generous of you! Looking forward to all the great entries!

Awesome choice for the LC 12 Frisky! Thanks for putting this together and thanks also to Ludzik for being so generous as to donate prizes!
Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with! And don't forget to put together entries for the GC6!

Happy Building,
Sir Valiant~

I like the concept behind this contest, I just have one question. I noticed you said that it would be good for us to show the contrast between the "dream" and what reality in our MOCs.
Maybe this is just me, but I've been imagining the current rule and oppression of Galainir as simply more of an occupation rather than something that actually ravaged the lands of Roawia. To me, Lenfald (and the rest of Roawia) should look pretty much the same as it did before Galainir's takeover.

I'll do my best to get something up for this contest but I think my main focus is going to be on the GC at the moment. Also, thanks to Petturik for offering to sponsor this contest!

Hey guys, Parts 3 and 4 of my GC6 entry are up on Flickr!

Where not talking about the actual state of the country side, but rather the state of living endured by Lenfald's residents. When I say contrast, I mean that you must show your character in a scene that is not in accordance with the oppressive state of living under the Queen. The physical state of the land has nothing to do with it, though like in the examples given, a beautiful landscape could serve as a good base for the type of scene that I am looking for.

Hope that clears things up!

Ahh, okay. Thanks for clearing that up Frisky!
