Full Plate Posted March 20, 2016 I just now noticed the use of AltBricks in the water. Genius! And once again, your trees are beautiful. Well done! Thanks Graham! If it's not easily noticeable, I guess that's good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LordDan Posted March 20, 2016 Awesome build! These trees of yours are fantastic, they are so natural. In most Mocs the trees are just the background but in this it is the centerpiece of the build! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
songwm Posted March 21, 2016 Oh my god! What a giant and detail tree! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MassEditor Posted March 25, 2016 Woah, that tree is insane! My brain hurts trying to figure out exactly what techniques you used. Very gorgeous build, the water, cliffside, tree and vegetation all combine into something quite pretty. As usual, your builds present a lot of style and uniqueness. The story is fun to read too! I would echo Garmadon on the photo angles. I'd like to see an overall shot with the water corner facing the camera (like in the fourth photo, but with the whole MOC visible). This seems to be the main angle of the build. Perhaps use less direct light too, it seems to wash out some of the fantastic colors of this build. In any case, a very nice build, story and presentation! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In any case, a very nice build, story and presentation! Thanks ME for the high praise! I agree with you and Garmadon about the angles, and I will be trying to be more conscious about that in future builds. I'm also working on upgrading my photo setup to have something more reliable. Right now I'm just photographing in direct sunlight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sorrelon Posted March 31, 2016 Beautiful scenery! I really like how you put some plants on the water and the colour changes between those plants and the plants on the cliff. And your tree techinque is mind blowing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MassEditor Posted March 31, 2016 Right now I'm just photographing in direct sunlight. 0Ah, you should try shooting in the shade next time. I think you'll really enjoy the difference it makes when photographing MOCs, if you don't have a lighting setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Excellent landscaping and great use of those third-party leaves As usual, those tree trunks are really impressive! Edited April 2, 2016 by Gideon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
