Modular Outpost

[ziljin]

Outpost created out of my second Drawbridge Defence Lego set.

It's a previously abandoned troll fort, and partially renovated by humans. Then abandoned again. Two knights, accompany the Queen and her bodyguard/entertainer and rest in this outpost to find out why it was abandoned. Skeletons!

Out of all the photographs you took, it seems you chose one of the only blurry pictures as the first image in your post. It's an eyesore, and ultimately turns people away. Your presentation is very important if you want to attract viewers, and therefore posting your best image first is a good idea.

The creation itself is well done. Nothing particularly special, but a solid little build. The idea of Crown Soldiers inhabiting a troll fortress is an interesting one, considering I imagine it would usually be the other way around. I like the slopes attached walls, giving the building a bit of a ramshackle look.

Those are some good points. I will keep that in mind for future posts. I figured I should start out with the entire thing in view. But I only have a cellphone camera so my pic quality can only go so far. I would rather spend the money a proper camera costs on more Lego to be honest.

I know what you mean. Most of your pictures aren't bad though, it was just that first one. The image you replaced it with might not be from as good of an angle, but it is a much better photograph.

Another thing you might want to try in the future is to either enlarge your backdrop or crop your images, so the whole background is white.
