The Stad Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) Though he likely would never rule Førstlys, Makny was a member of the lord's household, and would be expected to fight for him. So his father spent many hours with him, teaching him to swing a sword and hold a shield. They would often practice in dangerous corners of the island, so Makny learned to mind his footing and pay attention to his surroundings. His father never went easy on him, for as all Mitgardians know, the pain of defeat is a warrior's greatest teacher. http:// Comment and criticism welcome.

Garmadon Posted December 27, 2017 Nicely done, the jutting rockwork looks neat, and the posing is very good too Great little vig and story! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted December 27, 2017 Nice vig, particularly the minifig posing and the water! I also really like the Norse touch to your writing Regarding the photo, I think the proportions of the build in the picture would be improved if you moved the camera further away from the build and zoomed in instead, right now the front of the build gets "enlarged" compared to the back when you have the camera lens too close to the build.

The Stad Posted December 28, 2017 Thank you guys for the feedback. Gideon, that tip with the camera might also explain why I've been having trouble keeping my MOCs in front of my backdrops while taking pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Maestro Posted December 29, 2017 Great tree, and although it is a bit uniform I like the rockwork too, your sig fig is shaping up to be a very interesting charachter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As always, the Maestro was just a bit earlier to say the things I wanted to say: lovely tree, and even when it looks somewhat uniform, the rockwork is cool too! Looking forward to some more builds from you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henjin_Quilones Posted January 5, 2018 Great rockwork! The border should be altered, as others have said, but that is minor. The tree's foliage looks good, but for such slender trunks the bases seem too thick. The water effect is well done, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted January 6, 2018 You're off to a great start with your AoM builds! The green or blue (?) underneath the trans clear plates gives a nice sense of depth and the overhanging cliff face certainly would be a dangerous setting for a practice fight Neat way of attaching the leaves, though as HQ pointed out, the bottom section of the trunks are a bit thick. Maybe just use 1x1 round bricks there instead of the slopes? Can't wait to see what else you come up with! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
de Gothia Posted January 6, 2018 Great little moc here! I really like the minifigs and their posings!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
