the Inventor Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) The Queen celebrates her birthday on the 25th of December, many guest come to celebrate with her, even the dwarven king of Tondelheim. On this bright moonlit night, many festivities are planned, however the queen isn't very impressed by the jester. Visit the Queen by moonlight by Ids, on Flickr For a better view of the King and Queen: The King of the Hill, over there, somewhere by Ids, on Flickr Some background info, the scene is lit using 6 old 12V train lights, this gives the needed warm light for the scene. For the moonlight I used an old phone as a flashlight (nice white LED light) and for the candle on the table to the right, with the King and Queen, I used an exo-force "Fiber Optics Cable Wide 20L" which runs through the candle, table, and wall behind the figs, there it is lit using another flashlight. The stained glass is build around an old Knights Kingdom panel, which was a bit difficult to incorporate because I did not want to use the piece that is normally used. I used a bunch of animals, can you spot them all. Thanks for looking and I am always happy to hear some comments. Edited December 27, 2021 by the Inventor Quote
AmperZand Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 A great scene! It has lots of character and the minifigures exude their various personalities. Very cleverly lit and skillfully photographed. Thanks for sharing Without clicking through to Flickr, I spot seven different animals: humans, dwarves, a cat, a mouse, a horse (in the second pic), and a spider and bat of unusual size. Quote
the Inventor Posted December 28, 2021 Author Posted December 28, 2021 @AmperZand Thanks, it took a couple of pictures getting everything right. You got all the animals/creatures. Quote
The Neighborhood Merchant Posted December 29, 2021 Posted December 29, 2021 Love the use of the trans-clear angled bar to create that juggling effect. That is very innovative! Minifigures look wonderful too, and huge props for using a lot of traditional Lego lighting. Your build has so much life! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted December 30, 2021 Posted December 30, 2021 Great job with the lighting and also with those stained-glass windows. But if that is the queen's mood on her birthday, I would not want to visit her when she's unhappy Quote
the Inventor Posted December 30, 2021 Author Posted December 30, 2021 Thanks all, glad you all like it. Quote
Brickander Brickumnus Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Any more photos of this brilliant setting? Quote
the Inventor Posted February 7, 2022 Author Posted February 7, 2022 @Brickander Brickumnus I do have some WIP and behind the scene shots that I could upload somewhere. Quote
