[MOC] Great Coral Reef

[kris kelvin]

Hello. Here it is my last work. First time underwater :)

Coral reef:

[Captain Dee]

That is a beautiful reef! So many unique components and colors. It looks very realistic. Fantastic work.

[Stuartn]

Incredible work throughout, though I think my favourite part is the pink mohawk pieces

[Karalora]

Holy cow this is magnificent! You can almost identify real individual species, portrayed with a single part or very simple build! A++++++ work!

[Lyichir]

Wow, this is gorgeous! So many details and great parts usage!

The photography is also great, but a part of me wonders what it would look like with a more blue filtered light to see if that could give it a bit more of an "underwater" feel.

[caiman0637]

Wow! This is seriously impressive. 

[Jack Sassy]

My oh my! 

I very much like different hair pieces used to fill the reef and make it look realistic. Astonishing job on this one! 

[Professor Thaum]

Wonderful one !

I love the use of unusual parts like the arctic hats the backpacks and the spider suit from minifig series.

Unfortunately my photo skills are very week. And this the best what I can do :)

That’s amazing!  Truly remarkable parts usage throughout!

[Redhead1982]

I find coral reefs perfect to experiment with parts use and colour.

There's a lot of surprising parts included, easy to miss at first, but adding great variation. My favs are bags/sack with handle, hair pieces like magenta mohawks or the CMF's cabaret singers head decoration, and trolls' hair pieces.

That`s true. It`s really fun tryingto use all these strange parts :)

This is so amazing great.

And there is so much Nice Parts Usage.

Well done.

[Duvors]

I always enjoy these coral reef builds people do, and yours is an especially stunning example.

[Karalora]

Want to add also that you can really get a sense of the currents that might be present from the direction that various patches of organisms are "pointing." Every time I look at it I discover more details!
