Pyrovisionary Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) *Bad editing was bad.* In the furthest north of Mitgardia lies a watchtower, bleak, and alone. It stands high because no elemental see's a need to come this far north, but it's habitable. Seeing as no lord rules over it, Jokas Hoenfall takes it upon himself to Protect this land.

Mike S Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Nice build! I like the arch technique used for the windows altho I think that the single color used on the front looks the best. The snow/ice & upper window look great as well! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Excellent tower, the arches and tudor section are great Very Mitgardian looking landscape as well. The slight angle the tower is at makes the scene much more interesting Quote
Gideon Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Really nice snow/ice with all those angles! And the tower is gorgeous too For some friendly advice, which I try to give to everyone so they can improve regardless of skill (consider or disregard it at will): I would encourage you to take a higher resolution picture if possible and rotate it a bit so that the scene is straight. Now it looks as you have either had a lower resolution to start with, or maybe lost some resolution in the image handling? Quote

Oh, I've got a brilliant camera, but the editing process (Which I was experimenting with) reduced the resolution. I'm going to try a different process next time I make a moc. Quote

I'm going to try a different process next time I make a moc. That's what I suspected, the resolution is rarely the problem with today's cameras (or even smartphones). Its other factors that one has to be aware of, for example even though I've had a DSLR for quite a few years it's only recently I learnt to handle the depth of field reasonably well when photographing things like Lego... My advice is to do all editing on a copy of the image of the original size, and only reduce the resolution on the final edit when preparing it for publication. Nowadays I usually let Flickr do that for me Quote
Maxim I Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Indeed an excellent arch technic! I first thought it were the brickbuilt walls of TLC Also a super idea of doing the landscaping! It reall works well Quote
mrcp6d Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 I love the tudor section and as others have stated, putting the tower at an angle was a good idea. The white legs aren't really working for me. I think 2 pieces of cheese instead of the legs would've worked better if you have them. Quote
Ecclesiastes Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Excelllent moc! The snow is outstanding especially the piece in the water. And great touch adding the "Tudor" style woodwork/windows into the tower. Quote

kabel Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Great one, love the ice on the lake and the arches, now onto something bigger! Quote
Infernum Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Cool! I love the ice on the water! Great work on the tower! Quote
