soccerkid6 Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) After having met with Steen and Elon, Glorfindel arranges a meeting with Joktan so they can work together against the hand and for Mitgardia. Their meeting place, the statue of the owl. Owls are considered a protector of Mitgardia, and this statue honors their service: Previous build: http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=81865 Next build: All C&C appreciated Edited January 19, 2014 by soccerkid6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickington Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) Great owl statue! Is this meeting suppose to be at night? Because the lighting is very dark, perhaps you could get a lamp for your pics? Edited April 27, 2013 by Brickington Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kai NRG Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) Nice job and cute statue! The legs could use beefing up a bit maybe, but statues are always hard to get realistic! Edit: And where's the handy "Next Build" thing? Edited April 27, 2013 by Kai NRG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infernum Posted April 27, 2013 Oh, I love that statue! The owl on the owl statue is a great touch! Perfect foilage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted April 27, 2013 Nice statue and impressive foilage! I agree that the lighting could have been a bit better, if you are in short supply of natural light I would recommend using indirect flash illumination if you have access to a good flash.

Ecclesiastes Posted May 3, 2013 Of all the builds you've made for our barrage I like this one the most. It's just so well done! Maybe I also like it because I use owl's a lot in my Mitgardia mocs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
