Graham Gidman Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) My entry to Round 2 of the 2014-15 Middle Earth LEGO Olympics over on MOCpages. I was tasked to build a scene with Fili as the focus. His best scene is at the end of An Unexpected Journey when Bilbo is about to get killed while protecting Thorin, and he (along with Kili and Dwalin) rush in to save them both. You'll find more pictures and a lengthier description here: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/404861 Edited February 4, 2016 by Graham Gidman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deraven Posted January 22, 2015 I think that's great. The base works really well both as a diorama and representing the cliff face, and the almost-fallen-over tree feels perfect. My constructive criticism would be that the fire doesn't feel quite right to me. Maybe if there were a few straight-up flames (part 6126 - http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=6126 ) it would feel more like they're statically burning pieces whereas the bendy ones feel like they should be indicating more general motion to me. Really nice build! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Tyrus Posted January 26, 2015 Again, like I said before, keeping the colours more muted really makes it look more realistic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
