Love it! The neck/head construction plus the harness (?) contraption around the neck are my favourites.

Great! The whole camel is very cool, and I really like your "turban" (another super purist custom.) You've busted into another seldom-built area in medieval history (or at least a fairly accurate "other side")!

The red things on the neck are pom-poms... seemed a popular dressing for camels in the pictures I saw.

Whoops... I forgot to credit Rev. Brendan Powell here for the turban. Unfortunately not my idea.

Thanks for the comments, people.

Very creative. Though saracens mainly used horses :p

Awsome, if you did a whole set up of the middle east and added this it would really make it feel real.

This is best camel MOC I have ever seen. The brick-built execution is perfect. And I love the turban too. :)

I really like it. The tail is neat, and the overall SNOT work is great. Nice job.

Very nice camel, and I like the rider too, though the (rider's) legs look a little weird.

Admin magicks worked. 8) Blogger is stupid, though, and changes the post URL when you change the title. Here's the new link:

Awesome camel. Would've gotten to it myself if I weren't playing Final Fantasy XII all weekend...
