A woman looks longingly out to sea for the return of her beau.

I created this 8x8 MOC for [url=https://lowlug.com/]LowLUG’s[/url] [url=https://lowlug.com/forum/wedstrijden/mega-me ... moc-mania/]Mega Medieval MOC Mania (MMMM)[/url] contest (assuming I can get registered!)

I tried a new technique for the water. I initially wanted to avoid using the large clear panes and use a ‘pile’ of random transparent parts, but I was unable to stack or connect them at odd angles. So I went with just dumping various blues and clear pieces, but this almost completely obstructs the underwater vegetation and creatures.

Very cool Moc you have there. I like the castle wall detailing too. Hopefully you will be able to get registered.

I think this is nice. I'm not sure the water technique quite works, but it's good to see some innovation. Suggestion: What you tried "sculpting" the smaller water pieces behind the large transparent parts to make underwater scenes or something?

Nevertheless, good work and good luck with the contest!

Great looking fig. The tower and dock sections are nicely done. I like the way you did the water too.
