Mount Krakernak - 2.0 (The Maw of Mount Krakernak)
« on: November 25, 2014, 01:09:36 PM »
So now hat Adepticon registration has started and my team has their ticket.  It is time to start on a new mountain.  I will try and update this post with my progress if you guys would like that.  Since the first mountain was a success I fully plan to go bigger, better, stronger, faster and ridiculous with this build.

If you have any ideas please share and you may get a chance to leave your mark upon Mount Krakernak!

Work has started on on The Mountain 2.0

This time we decided to do a small section of the base of the mountain.  Here we see taking shape the area for the Alter to honor our Goddess Freya on the left and on the right is the Great Maw bear cave.  These are rough as production is still taking place but thoughts and feedback are most welcomed.

Overall Dimensions are 44" x 28" x 20"

Is it still a dwarf fortress? Then it needs tons of cats.
Should the miserable Grot crews survive for long they will soon become deafened and have to resort to a rudimentary system of sign language. This is rarely successful as there are only so many signs a Grot can carry around with him.

Update:  Started making the drill exit holes.  Added an area for the flyers and started to mock up the alter area.  Put models on it for scale and visual purposes.

Been working hard getting ready for Adepticon.  In progress pics are lacking but here is the latest update on the Mountain.  I still need to finish the temple, setup the decorations, paint caution stripes on landing pad, Do lighting, and detail the mountain-scape with white highlights.  Let me know if you guys think i can adjust anything or any feedback is appreciated.
