"Saving fair maidens from lonely tentacle monsters, beating back the forces of the Flying-Ninja-broom monkeys, all is a simple days work for The Foamriders."
This was rather fun to make... very random, and pretty absurd.

Lonely tentacle monsters, ninja-broom monkeys, I like it! Very nice idea.

Those look like flying ninja broom monkeys. Not sure if there's a difference...
Anyway, like the angle the boat is on, gives a great sense of a boat actually being in the water. Very clever!

The boat and water are awesome, but I really like how the rear of the moc is out of focus. It brings the focus (no pun intended) to the front of the boat making it go Zoooooooooom!

Nice MOC, but I guess I was expecting more
Foam.

Great details between the swaying lantern, the boat actually being down in the water, and the monkey, mad love for the monkey.

This truely is your calling in life Foamy. Never in all my years have I know anyone more suited to being a Foamrider than you. This MOC is both an acurate and realistic (do those mean the same thing?) rendition of the life you lead. Excellent work my friend.

Is this where you are channelling your foam riding mythos from?
