XimenaPaulina Posted April 12, 2011 Pretty neat entry Flare, I think this will make for a good small set, though having a base with a significant large piece count is something we don't usually see in standard sets (but should be a welcome development if ever we see one in the future). Nice work and good luck in the contest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masked Builder Posted April 12, 2011 Very nice work Flare! I missed the little walker thing when I saw the pictures on Flickr though. And I'm quite envious of your sea creature collection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oky Posted April 12, 2011 This is a nice-looking and funny scene, but I'm afraid it doesn't look like a set at all. It has barely any play features and SNOT bases are very unusual for TLC as KDM said. Also, non-licensed sets are hardly ever centered on a single scenario such as a lunch break, and the whole thing is much too small for a D2C set. That's my honest opinion anyway. Good MOC though.

noname Posted April 12, 2011 Very good, Flare! I like the landscaping and the walker. How can the diver eat with the helmet?

Gregorovich Posted April 12, 2011 It's a nice MOC, with some great techniques. It's a humorous scenario, and it looks good. However, it's just not something that I could see ever becoming a set. Other than the walker, there's nothing to play with, really. There's no action features or structures. It's basically just a flat bit of ground with some weeds, sea creatures and a walker. I think that if you focused more on the vehicle, added some sort of structure and included a play feature, it would be much better. Good luck with the contest!

Fuzzylegobricks Posted April 13, 2011 Wonderful scene and the sand is just great Flare! Not a single flaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabe Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) A cute little concept and rather humourous, but in desperate need of something to make it standout, i feel. The SNOT base seems like an interesting choice, given that you have worked up areas of the sea floor on top of it. Are the studded bits meant to be rocky outcrops, and the tan base the sand? Cause that would work visually, but maybe in two tone, like grey studs and tan smoothness. The tan all over just confuses me. I'd love to see a bigger walker too, and maybe a brick built sea monster, rather than the prefab sharks and swordfish. Best of luck in the comp though!
