Matn Posted December 22, 2007 This is my second vignette and I think I did it right this time. The photography worked out well and it is on a 8x8 plate. I editted a photo with Photoshop. This is the scene where Sirius Black, Harry's godfather(?peetvader), is been hit by an Avada Kedavra spell launched by Bellatrix. He disappears behind the curtain... A sad scene from the best book/film ever (imo). :'-( Oh, Sirius... Editted with Photoshop: the curtain is added and Sirius is fading away: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lt. Veers Posted December 22, 2007 That was the sadest scene in the movie and book, and you captured the feel well. The darn creator always kill off the good characters. Oh, well, at least in the deathly hallows they'll kill (SPOILER!). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derek Posted December 22, 2007 The darn creator always kill off the good characters. The creator ? I think you are referring to Jo Rowling, one of the greatest authors of our time (whom I think deserves a little more respect! :-D ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedikermit Posted December 22, 2007 I have to be honest--this is my least favorite of the seven Harry Potter books. Although it did make a pretty good movie. As for your vig though, I love it--the curtain effect is excellent, and the dark colors convey the mood of a very sad moment in the series. Very nicely done.

Imperial13 Posted December 23, 2007 J.R.R. Tolkien is the best! Nice moc... Harry Potter- Starts at home, then goes to hogwarts and saves the day, goes home again! That sentance was a summary of every single book!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedikermit Posted December 23, 2007 Frodo - Starts at home, then goes through Middle Earth and saves the day, goes home again! That sentance was a summary of the entire LOTR trilogy!!! Ya see, it all depends on how you look at things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batbrick Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) The creator ? I think you are referring to Jo Rowling, one of the greatest authors of our time (whom I think deserves a little more respect! :-D ) __________ And I believe she is highly overated. Her books take FAR too many obvious traits from previous authors, and her books are so disjointed, shifting from dark and moody to light and cheerful in a single chapter. Not to mention the cringeworthy moments and dull cliches. __________ Ya see, it all depends on how you look at things. __________ :-D , excellent quoting there though, but I do believe he is onto something there. I couldn't stop laughing at how rushed the ending of Phoenix was when Sirius dies, Voldemort attacks and disappears, and then they go home happy in a space of roughly ten-fifteen minutes. That said, this scene youve depicted Matn was very sad, and you've done a great job with it, I especially like the photoshopped pic. The groundwork is good using different shades too. The positioning of Harry and the other guy (forgot his name :-$ ) was done good too, and the fact you haven't showed their faces (because they're smiling of course) is actually quite effective *y* A nice little vig allround, the only thing I'd like is a bit more detail on the arch. Nothing to Say, but Batbrick Away! >:-) Edited December 23, 2007 by Batbrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuxorV Posted December 23, 2007 Nice MOC, even if I don't know the story 8-| (Ok, don't look at me that way!) Also, neat Photoshop effect *y* LuxorV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matn Posted December 23, 2007 Thank you all. It has to stay small, so I left off the details on the entrance of the curtain. I had a way where the arch standed not right, that was perfect, but I had to put in the black bricks (so it looks like an unending entrance) and it couldn't stand a bit diagonal. But thanks. Has anybody a tip to make a new vignette? Youre favorite scene of a movie (Harry Potter X-D )? I can't make anything with Hermoine in flesh, because don't have her like that. I can make some in yellow. So, anybody want to see a new one? =D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wout Posted December 23, 2007 Very nice fig (thumbs up) about new vigs, let them come. Always nice to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeMI6 Posted December 23, 2007 Nice work, especially with the photoshopping. I think in future you might need to input more emotion into each character's individual pose. I think Sirius needs to look like he's falling a bit more, and Harry might look better with his arm reaching out, struggling against Lupin(?). Otherwise, great work for just your second vig. Maybe a vig of Harry against Voldemort next? Or perhaps something involving the Gaunts or the Riddle House. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matn Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) If i can put my hands on the Graveyard set I can make something met Voldemort. Yes, i could make something involving that house. Hm. Edited December 24, 2007 by Matn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
