CCCV Entry: The Death of Romeo and Juliet

Post by Maedhros »

"We see the grounds whereon these woes do lie;
But the true ground of all these piteous woes
We cannot without circumstance descry."

After having been alerted by the page of Paris, the city guards of Verona come upon the Mausoleum of the Capulets and find the dead bodies of Paris, Romeo and Juliet.

Are those Fleshies? Other than that it's great, nice job. Don't forget her dagger.

Fleshies as they are supposed to be ... dead ;) I really like the succession of shots in the folder, very well presented, & I also like this studless fad you are on recently, Jonas, keep it up :)

Well done sir, well done.

I especially like the tile work on the ramp up to the door.

Wow Jonas. I like this a lot. Great images although I think the first one may be a touch too dark or need a touch of contrast. But it does give a great atmosphere. The studlessness is great and the red tiles for blood build right into the floor is cool. The fig posing and action in this is great. I like how one of the soldiers is holding his sword by it's handguard. Makes it appear as if it's hanging at his side. Excellent MOC Jonas. The building too is very cool. All around astonishment.

MORE I SAY! MORE! :D

(EDITED IN PS- Hey, question. May I use that roof design? I absolutely love it! It's fantastic!)

Exactly. They convey that deathly pallor perfectly, don't they? ;)

Hehe, studless fad indeed. We'll see if I ever get over it :P

I'll just blame the winter, shall I? ;)

Of course! How would we ever get anywhere if we all just kept our ideas to ourselves ;)

Overall, very nice. What I really like, though, is the sloped ramp. It looks tiled, but the fact that it is a ramp, instead of the normal stairs, makes it very cool.

What!? You mean they die at the end? :shock: Now you've spoiled it!

(Just kidding :D )

Very accomplished creation. I agree with doc069 and kelderic about the sloping floor - especially nicely done.

On the torch, what part did you use to attach the bar to the flame?
