Pretty nifty... but I'd make the walls a lot higher.

Okay - I'll be the brave one.

Where's the pic? :-) I looked in the Album section, but couldn't find it.

Oh - never mind. They weren't sorted in chronological order, so it was hidden in the middle of the page. Silly me. :-)

Nice pic, but which part of Revelstone are we looking at? Or are we out the front :?:

If he made it and says it's Revelstone, then it's Revelstone, I assume. Hile, and Elena, and Covenant weren't together in one place anywhere else in the Chrons!

Well, it's a good picture but I can't say anything for the accuracy of the piece - Robe becomes a gown, tunic and breastplate becomes a suit of armor, half a hand becomes a hand with two finger stumps...
And I don't believe there were ever any statues in revelstone.

Since I can't do pictures at all, no, but I know that he couldn't have got his facts more wrong - wait, scratch that, covenant's clothes are right, the colour of the rock is right, Elena carries a staff, and Hile Troy is wearing sunglasses. He could have got it more wrong.


Edit - don't mind me, I'm in a funny mood today and feel like slagging something off.

Joy is in the ears that hear, I'd say. It's a worthy piece and shows a great deal of effort and a love for the Land. Granted, there are details I would change, but I applaud the effort and welcome more such works.

Boy, if folks are picky about a picture, I wonder how they'd react to a Covenant movie by Peter Jackson! Heck--had Elena worn something like in that pic, I would've loved TIW all the more! If you can't copy something right, do it better, I always say.

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.
