The Grand Tour '20 / The Grand Tour '20 - Round 2

 

He who travels has stories to tell!

 

Round 2 - Namibia

 

 

As we're letting our impressions from Cuba sink in, we embark on a voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. We reach our destination where the ocean turns into an ocean of sand. We have arrived in Namibia! Traversing the harsh environment of the Skeleton Coast, and the endless red dunes of the Kalahari Desert, leaves us exhausted. Fortunately, as a former German colony, Namibia has no lack of beer and bratworst - as well as being in rich in other natural resources. It's a big country. Where shall we go?

Looking for partner

Fuck, I would LOVE to do this theme. Unfortunately this month is really tough for me. Maybe next time!

looking for partner

Can we get SecondRun to participate? First name I thought of after reading "must contain a striking landscape feature"

 

I'm moving from AZ to CA the coming week and that might eat up too much time to properly participate in this round, though if everything goes smoothly I might be able to put something together. Never really attempted any themes similar to this so would be a fun challenge

I'm building something in Zimbabwe already. They almost share a border. It would just get awkward.

I'll be building again; and open to a partner

I'd be interested in duo'ing.

Mmm... too much relying on landscaping which I don't like to do. I'll pass on this round, unless someone wants to duo and take the landscaping part  

Like I said on discord I kinda wanne go solo on this one, but on the other hand, I feel like I'm not ready yet...
So I guess if someone asks to partner up, I'm Down for that. Seeing some interesting names that are looking to team up, who I'd love to learn from though!
I'll just let fait deside...

Although ideally a desert or whatever is as detailed as a thick forest, I think the generally open landscape of Namibia is an opportunity to be able to put a map together in a short amount of time.

looking at some pictures.. now I wanna go on holiday... damnit NE!

See it as an opportunity to practice landscaping. 

no longer looking pardner

I'm down, and also looking for a partner.

Don't think I've ever done a desert-setting or african architecture, so this would be fun.

Tentatively looking for a partner if anyone's interested. Haven't built anything yet and not sure how well I'm suited to the theme but I can give it a go if someone else is good at planning out the main ideas and stuff.

Looking for a partner

A little late to the party, but I´m also looking to have a go at this round and looking for someone to partner up with. Haven´t done a duo before, so you´ll have to help me a little with explaining how that part works.

I like this round's objective and location.  I'm looking forward to the entries and I hope it can push a lot of people out of their comfort zone.

Team hydrokent are gonna submit something again. Good luck everybody.
