Legostone Posted June 25, 2017 While exploring the area around Puerte Citrus Plantation. We had already been wondering why the Marderians that lived here before rarely ate anything else - now we had our answer. Seeing the usefulness of these fruit, we quickly sent out a crew of workers to keep the plantation running. We'll probably put them to use on our ships, not go on a diet based purely on them though... Medium Plantation, activated as a Challenge Reward via microbuild Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdeathgr Posted June 25, 2017 Hey! You people will make me like microbuilds after all!! Nice one LS. The background adds A LOT to the build Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stig Posted June 25, 2017 I like how you stepped the ground. Better depth and easier to see the whole build. Nice bonus to get the shadows working for you underneath the clouds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacob Nion Posted June 25, 2017 The background works excellent- especially the inclusion of the volcano as all-dominating festure of the island. It is hard enough to create a proper micro scale build, but to include forced perspective is on an even higher level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted June 25, 2017 Nice micro plantation! I must echo the others: the background / forced perspective really adds to the build. And good job working in part of the island's unique character to the build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't even notice that the shadows are once good for something On 6/25/2017 at 9:05 PM, Jacob Nion said: The background works excellent- especially the inclusion of the volcano as all-dominating festure of the island.

That's why I included it in the end-of-war pic at the end of the challenge. It is the defining feature of the island. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
