Sarlina's Cottage
Sarlina was always an adventurous person, right from childhood. she was brought up in a small cottage in the village of grim hollow on the Dark Isle of Avalonia, with her two loving parents. although a dark time, she was happy, and enjoyed the friendship of Tayrn. One night long ago her house was looted and her parents beheaded, when she woke that morning something in her snapped, a rebellious nature has born into her, as well as longing for justice.
or perhaps a lust for revenge?
since then she rarely visits her cottage, always off getting up to something...
Ok chums, i was gonna build this one ages ago, but uhm... yeah. CCC XI is coming up soon, this was a 3 day build, so thats good considering i'm not gonna have as much time to win master builder as i had originally anticipated, but will do!
this thing is damn flimsy!
*Derfel, thanks for the edit, and for being awesome!
*Mark, you ready for master builder?!?
Hey all,
Here's my first entry into this years CCC! When I saw the categories, I knew I had to build at least for the circus category, as I liked that one a lot.
I hope to be able to make 6 entries, as the master-builder prize is quite tempting, although I'm absolutely unsure if it's realistic...
As for the build itself, I'm quite pleased with how it turned out... The tents were quite challenging, as they are 6- and 10-sided shapes. I was able to close the gaps really well imho...
I hope you enjoy this build as well, and stay tuned for more entries!

Hello, all! I have been working on this build for the past couple days, and I'm quite pleased with the way that it has turned out. It was greatly inspired by one of Ian Spacek's builds. Thanks to Simon Liu and Hacim Bricks for critiquing it. It wouldn't be the same build without their input.

Built for the medieval dungeon category of the Colossal Castle Contest. I hope a more fantasy feel is accepted.
Me: QUINNE!!!
Quinne: What can I help you with?
Me: It's not bad enough you were staring in the neighbors house with binoculars yesterday, now you are taking pictures?
Quinne: Yup sure am.
Me: Get in the house!
Quinne: Hang on a minute. I'm getting some good stuff...they're kind of weird.

Thanks to Steve Skinner (www.flickr.com/photos/steveskinner) for always pushing me to excel in my photography. He's patiently waited for years for me to make the switch to Canon and I'm glad I did. After a quick trip to Yosemite I got a chance to use it a little. The weather was less than ideal....high 80's daytime, 60's at night and not a cloud in the sky. With such horrid conditions, we came home early.

Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1935-36, this building fits right in with the natural surroundings of Pokagon State Park. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCC_Shelter
These are not some restored structures from centuries ago but built by the Civilian Conservation Corps from the matching local rock during the 1930's to house workers in the area. From 1933 to 1942 the CCC over the course of it's existence employed over two an half million of mostly young men to work in over in over 4500 different camps planting trees, building roads etc. So many of the roads and some structures in our federal and state parks were built by CCC workers.
