The Time Has Come...

Okay, so this probably counts more as a Minifig Scene then a Vignette due to the lack of any real...building involved ( ), but I got the idea for this from listening to the Revenge of the Sith soundtrack while I was working today.

I thought it might be more interesting to stage the moment where the infamous Order 66 is given then the actual act...the whole situation is just so full of different and strong emotions that the conflicted seconds right before the betrayal is carried out seem to be the most poignant.

Couple more pics here if you're interested in all the angles.

I think brickshelf is down at the moment :(

:-D

That's kind of amusing considering, I was referred to Brickshelf because the site I had been hosting from went down a couple times

Well folks, in case Brickshelf is down, you can find one pic here

Whew, pretty good, I like the feeling of the last pic. Could've put in a larger scape, maybe a dreaded BURP, or a LURP.

I agree with hewkii, except for the using a BURP as landscaping (also, hewkii, it won't be a vignette if the plate is any bigger). The scene looks a little plain and boring IMO.

Very nicely done, you capture the feeling of the scene very well. I thought this would always be difficult to do in Lego, as there's only a limited amount of emotion you can get. But the positioning works very well, but i think it might work a bit better as an MOC than a Vignette, as then you can see the oblivious Jedi battling as the Clones recieve the order. It's a great idea that could be developed.

Vignettes are MOCs

Ah, see here's where the limitiations of the Minifigs fail to convey something properly. In the scene I was going for a point where the Jedi had just finished cutting down a group of battle droids, and he and the clones were standing among the debris of battle. But as you pointed out, with limited Minifug articulation it's not easy to convey a more relaxed body language for the Jedi...perhaps I could have "deactivated" the saber by taking the blade out.

Either way, it's just something to consider next time I try something like this, eh?
