[MOC] The River Journey to Faeril

[mrlind]

Jag har hakat på Eurobricks Guilds of Historica med temabygga i landskapet Avalonia.
Tillhörande historia till bilderna är därför på engelska.

Gyrdher has left his parents and the family farm to seek adventure in Avalonia. At a market place near the river, he met a merchant who was getting ready to travel with his goods to Faeril. Gyrdher asked to come along and offered to row as he has no money to pay with. The merchant, who did not want Gyrdher to row, let him come along without payment.

The journey went through the landscape of Avalonia. The river wound its way through a beautiful landscape of green fields and huge oak forests. Gyrdher stood in the stern and took in everything he saw and enjoyed the journey. He has never before been this far away from home. His stomach tingled with excitement and curiosity. During the whole afternoon they were rowing quietly down the river.

At one point, the river narrows and the water starts rushing. A ruin from an older fortification was located on the river bank. Gyrdher was fascinated by the ancient ruin. The crew on the other hand did not have time to take in the view. They had total focus on the river. This was the most difficult passage of the entire journey. The narrow river and the ruin that has partially fallen into the river creating an underwater reef, makes this part extremely difficult to pass.

The crew has made this trip many times before. But their concentration were on the edge. They know of countless of other boats that have sunk due to inattention at this location.

After a few intense minutes, they passed the narrow rushing part of the river. They leave the ruin behind and the boat floats ones again on the quiet and calm river. The forest thinned out. Further away beyond green fields, the outlines of a town was seen.

The merchant turns to Gyrdher.

"There Gyrdher, you have your city, Faeril."

Snygg båt, är den fastbyggd på botten eller går den att swoosha med?

[Gideon]

Fin båt! Hoppas detta bygge får vara med i Örebro, vi ska ju ställa ut GoH-byggen med maritimt tema då

Och hjärtligt välkommen till GoH!! Hoppas du kommer trivas och önskar dig många år av god inspiration

Snygg båt, är den fastbyggd på botten eller går den att swoosha med?

Tackar. Båten är byggd separat och lös. Är ett egen model. Den är inspirerad av Nydamskeppet. En båt från 300-talet som roddes på Östersjön.
Wiki Nydamskeppet
Nydamskeppet har 36 roddare. Men min MOC hade från början 10, det gav rätt proportioner tyckte jag. Då jag ville använda båten i detta projekt fick jag skala ned den ytterligare för att få plats på en baseplate.

Tack Gideon, GoH har gett konstruktiv feedback så det har definitivt varit givande och utvecklande. Min plan är att göra ytterligare ett fribygge i närtid så att Gyrdher kommer fram till sin stad.
GoH-bygge i Örebro låter intressant. Det vill jag definitivt haka på.

Mycket snyggt bygge
