Title: Occupied Cytherean Parrotman Village
Post by: Froggy the Great on August 06, 2013, 02:29:00 PM
Huts made from coconut halves, here seen as a Cytherean Parrotman village occupied by invading colonial British forces.

The hardest part of this whole thing was cutting the coconuts into even halves. The tastiest part was eating the coconut meat. The doors were just two parallel hacksaw cuts up into the shell and then snapped off with a pair of pliers. The post and lintel are bamboo skewers, washed with brown ink.

Especially the parted-from-the-tree ends; the little tri-eyed part looks like strange cooking non-chimneys.

Those lizardmen, they are such savages, aren't they?

Indeed they are.  How dare the native High Cythereans arm them with modern weapons!

They're an awesome idea. Look great and easy (ish) to make. Brilliant.

Very Nice!
