CCC XIX - Folviken Fortress

Post by jtooker »

The Duke of Glannalt is brought to the Folviken. Abductees are always brought to the lake fortress for safe keeping until a ransom is paid. High profile persons, such as the duke, are always high stakes; sometimes our work just plays into the hands of an opportunistic usurper. But the rewards for the Wolfpack are too good to pass up.

I created this MOC for the Over water! category of the CCC XIX. I had been planning such a MOC for a while, especially after seeing Jonas Kramm's Wolfholm. The submission was also very fitting for the Brickscalibur Rogues and Outlaws.

I just had to comment on this! :shock: The colour scheme is great, as well as the building on top of the wall! The rear tower looks a bit fantasy, so I would probably have left it out, although it adds to the details (so over all better for a contest).
The dark blue water looked a bit plain, but it actually fits nice with the colour scheme of the moc :D I also like the different use of arches throughout the moc. "The Door to the Front Gatehouse Tower and Draw Bridge" photo, that door could have done with an arch, but anyway.
Another thing that adds is the box windows, such a nice technique! I'll have to put that into my Moc someday

Overall very detailed moc, inspiring and well designed!

P.s., I love that lantern idea using treads 8)
Bishons,

The key to good MOC building is a large brain and a kinda big wallet

Nice to see another Wolfpack MOC. We both build a tower with a water feature.

I really like the stonework together with the wood and the red roof. The dark blue water complements the MOC well.

The roof ornaments look also really nice, but maybe a little too big for the smallest roof.
