Western : Feeding the vultures

Recommended Posts

Feeding the vultures

 

I tryed something a bit different from what I usually build and since I am preparing something in the Western Theme, I thought it could be good to post this little MOC to have some feedback, in particular on the vultures design.

The scenette helped me to design some figs I will probably re use in other bigger western builds in the future.

And without anymore words, here are the pictures :

Great little scene.  Really simple build, but that 3-piece tree still works well with those much more complicated and creative vultures!  Nice build!  :classic:

The vultures are a real standout here, but if I had one critique its that the one with wings spread has them too low down. You'd need to find some way of attaching those claw pieces closer to the shoulder. But the effect of the hair and the positioning is spot on. :thumbup:

Thank you.

The 3 pieces tree is always a good thing when you don't need to go to a more complex build. Of course, I will make better trees in the future. The main purpose here, was to try some vulture designs. I am glad you find them at your taste. Thanks !

Thank you ! this is a good point you've raised ! The wings are effectively a bit low. I tryed to make the vulture a bit like spreading wings before flying but will try another attachment for the claw pieces. Thank you !

This vulture style definitely works well in multiple types of settings. Also nice job on making the throwing knife seem in action.

Thank you. The minifig posing is always important for me, I'm glad you noticed it !

Any chance you could list the parts involved in building the vultures - particularly the one with its wings folded? They're really excellent.

Yes, sure, I will post a photo of the parts needed in this post. It is not very difficult.

That's an excellent scenery you created there, Faladrin! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

I esp. like how you built the vultures.

Thank you very much. These vultures will be incorporated in a bigger layout then ! Glad you like them !
