Matiam92 Posted December 27, 2010 Tada! *Snip* Thanks! Any feedback will be much appreciated. Oh this is great... 5 Snowtroopers on a white baseplate... You are a shoe in for first place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagPiesRUs Posted December 27, 2010 Thanks for your contribution, Matiam92. As far as I'm aware however, this is a photography contest, not a building contest. I'm a fan of simplicity, though you're right, it does need a little something extra. I might try and take another crack at it and get back to you in a few days.

Sisco Posted December 27, 2010 I don't know what he's griping about, I really like it. Less is more, in this case. I appreciate the artistic value of this shot. The lighting is near-perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina Posted December 27, 2010 Now that is a creative shot! I love the unconventional focus of the subject at the bottom right corner. Great job on this shot TinyPiesRUs! Best of luck in the contest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Solscud007 Posted December 27, 2010 yeah great shot. the only distracting thing, for me, is seeing the underside of the baseplate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickArtist Posted December 27, 2010 yeah great shot. the only distracting thing, for me, is seeing the underside of the baseplate. Agreed, this fantastic! But the baseplate may look good tiled, or not visible at all. Great Job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimBee Posted December 28, 2010 Oh this is great... 5 Snowtroopers on a white baseplate... You are a shoe in for first place The least you could do is offer some feedback... I for one really like this entry, and like TPRU said, it's more about the shot than the build. The lighting in this one is really great, and the charging troopers create a really dramatic and epic effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonaparte Posted December 28, 2010 Oh this is great... 5 Snowtroopers on a white baseplate... You are a shoe in for first place You are entitled not to like this contest entry, but there are more polite ways to communicate your opinion. Your reply strikes me as aggressive and extremely unfriendly towards TinyPiesRUs (one of the friendliest members of this community). This is not the first time you behave like this, so consider this a final warning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted December 28, 2010 Oh this is great... 5 Snowtroopers on a white baseplate... You are a shoe in for first place Yeah and you're just a gawd at photography yourself? I actually think this shot is awesome. A little dark perhaps, but it's got that "postcard-feeling" and that's enough to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagPiesRUs Posted December 31, 2010 Thanks for your input everyone. I've ended up taking a completely different picture, but I'm interested in which of the three you prefer... yeah great shot. the only distracting thing, for me, is seeing the underside of the baseplate. Oops, I've got a dark computer screen so I hadn't noticed this. Thanks for pointing it out. The OP pic has been updated. Thanks everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enpaz Posted December 31, 2010 I'd go with the original photo anyway! It's great photography - perfect composition and lighting - and this is what the contest is about. My compliments! The second and third one are almost a bit too cramped in comparison to the first. If you definitely want to take either the 2nd or the 3rd shot, though, then by all means take the 2nd. The third one is much too dark in my opinion. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avanaut Posted December 31, 2010 I think the first upload is very interesting. Simple composition with an intriguing detail at the lower left corner, what is that mound? I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimBee Posted January 1, 2011 I still prefer the first shot, simply because the lighting is more dramatic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
def Posted January 1, 2011 I think the first pic is best. You got really nice contrast in that image. White figures on a white background can be a real challenge, but the troopers stand out clearly. Nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceroknight Posted January 2, 2011 Nice entry I like the first alot more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R5-N2 Posted January 7, 2011 Agreed, this fantastic! But the baseplate may look good tiled, or not visible at all. Great Job +1 Very nice shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L.E.G.Oclone90 Posted April 6, 2011 I think all are good but the first one is the best in my opinion. What is the set in the 2nd and 3rd picture. Just recently getting back into hording lego, sorry if this is off topic. 1st picture definately though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
