Attack of the Kraken

Sailing into unknown seas the Admiral get ambushed by the mighty Kraken only spoken of in old legends.

This build is made of excatly 250 pieces and is designed as a diorama more than a play set. What i wanted from this build was to create a very dynamic scene of the Kraken attack. By tilting the entire ship i wanted to build a sense of danger into the scene, with the Kraken nearly tipping over the ship. To create a sense of speed i tried forming the waves as bow waves forming from the front of the ship. A few other details is the low flying bird (also to create a sense of speed) aswell as a canonball shooting towards the Kraken.
