A placeholder for my BSC idea… a Sept for my existing Game of Thrones project.

It offers an interesting challenge, particularly if I go down the seven-sided building route to reflect the faith of the Seven…

Seven aspects or faces of the one god:

Father
Mother
Warrior
Smith
Maiden
Crone
Stranger

As an added complication I’m short on time (due to work commitments) and currently skint, so I’m largely going to have to reply upon whatever materials I’ve already got to hand, so don’t expect too much  lol

Nice idea, and it's an Akula project, the expectations are that as usual you'll do a brilliant job of it, whatever you use  :D 8)

Can't wait to see what you come up with.  Your feast of crows was spectacular.

Awesome idea. It will look good surrounded by mounds of dead bodies too of course  ;)

Good luck  :)

Think you can have loads of fun with the symbolism of each aspect - nice idea.

Ooh that's right; hammers had a really nice build going some years ago!

No peeking!  :D

Regrettably I’m going to have to drop out… without even having started… been away pretty much solid Feb/March, and illness wiped out what little free time I had.

Back home now and over the lurgy, but shattered…and need to spend some time on the family… particularly Mrs Akky as I was away for both her birthday and our 25th Wedding Anniversary.

Just hope she doesn’t check the boot of my car before I can hide the goodies I picked up from Lord Raglan on the way home, as I doubt they will pass muster as an anniversary present  lol

Good luck to everyone  8)

Glad you are feeling better and sorry to hear about you bowing out as your pieces are particularly nice.

Pity, your builds are really something.  :D  But there's always BSC2024  :D :D
It's good to hear you're recovering.
