Hi KeffFett2011

To deep-link a photo from another website (I use either brickshelf or flickr) you need to copy the URL (the file needs to be a .jpeg) > Next click on the 'Tree' icon on the post toolbar (bottom row, to the left of the double arrows!) > Next paste in the URL and click 'OK' > If it's linked correctly it should appear in the post. Ideally try to keep the images to about 800 x 600.....

I hope that this helps; please feel free to PM if you have any other questions

Cheers, Robin

Nice MOC By the way. The yellow dumpster is awesome, and the bunker design is nice.

Some extra trees around would help but it certainly looks like the bunker under construction, and deep linked images are also usefull .

Oooh, that's a nice bunker! I love the overall, acurate shape with the nice amount of smooth and detailed surfaces. It matches the eventual bunker excellently, but has the added value of being a construction site as well. The vegetation is pretty good: I really like the way it crawls around the bunker. And it's good you don't have one big green plane, but added some brown in it too, and that yellow dumpster brakes everything up nicely.

Still, I have the feeling there are some small inaccuracies in this build, that kind of contradict the atmosphere of construction your evoking. Firstly, the leaves on the bunker. It's pretty strange to see those, considering the bunker has only just been built, allowing no time for the plants to grow over it. Another thing is that you need to keep in mind that this is a bunker, so it needs to be a strong structure. You already tried to implement that with those tubes in behind the covering walls, evoking weaponized concrete or something similar but intergalactic, but there's still too much empty are in there. I imagine a big slab of grey concrete, with a lot of tubes through it. That exposed section would even emphasize more the fact that it's a bunker and the fact that it's under construction. Also, I think it's a bit strange the stromtroopers are building everything with their bare hands. I would expect to see some small tools at the least, maybe even gathered in some crates. There could be bigger machinery as well, such as a concrete mixer or some kind of saw. That would also help to fill up the big green space some more, just like that dumpster does now: that is already a step in the good direction.

I already said I like that brown patch, but to make it look more natural, there could also be some small islands of browns in the neighbourhood of the big patch. You could also throw in some dark tan or olive green. Also, making some more relief in the green, as little imperfections, would raise the credibility of the scene. But don't get me wrong, I still like the base, and I like how you've added that nice border around it. That makes it look very professional! So yes, there is already a lot of goodness in these scene, like the imperfections in the bunker. Keep it up, and make the empire even prouder!
