Gyfhat Retreat

Post by Remyth »

Well, this was my first entry into the CCCVII (Misc.) and by far my favorite. Been pretty busy so I haven't had time to post it here yet, but I finally found some time. Some without further ado, here is Gyfhat Retreat:

Flickr Linky!

When word of an assassination plot against him reached his ears, the Duke of Qwer-Gyf decided to play it safe. Placing his responsibilities of the shoulders of his advisors, the Duke relocated to his secret estate along the Kubrand River. Far from any cities, the Duke felt safe. Little did he know that the assassin was dogging his steps…

Thanks for viewing! C & C welcome and encouraged!

Really well made. Everything in it. That bridge is really great!
Btw. Is the hooded guy on the bridge also an assasin? Dunno why, but i just thought "Hey, that must be this assasin-guy" when i saw him :)

Well, not really. He has more of a high-ranking servant look to me. Maybe it is just the robes...

Thanks,

The Gazebo is amazing. Phenomenal details. The Drunkard is great. Really well do, looks completely soused. I like th use of thee blue "flame" for the liquid. Target Practice is hilarious, my kind of rodent control.

Thanks for the comment Legokilt! I'm glad you liked the gazebo, because it was a pain to built...

I'm sure you just need practice... Building is a lot of practice, and you never know what you can do it you dont try!

Thanks,
