Matija Posted February 24, 2010 My small tribute to the sport that is too often misunderstood. Thanks to the EB's Pantless curling enthusiast for constructive discussions while building it :) Gallery: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/188315 Preview pic: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Zuloo Posted February 24, 2010 Nice MOC! I'm not familiar with the sport, but you have posed the figs really nicely, and the photography is a big . Well done from me, keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted February 24, 2010 Looks fantastic - a gold medal winner 'Matija' ! I have seen this in past winter Olympics - a different kind of sport for sure ! You caught the action just right ! I'm a conformist! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Green Hair Posted February 24, 2010 Oh it is that weird sport that fills up while the real athletes have a break. Really like how you made the circles and the action shots look great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted February 24, 2010 What a wonderful MOC That curling stone is perfect and the figure posing is rather masterful. Although I am not a great follower of any sport I have been catching the curling at times (my father is a fan) and that is really accurate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) This is great. Everything - the colors for the ice, the poses of the figs, the 'stone' - is spot-on and the photography is excellent. Look out for a Classic-Town.net blog tonight... Edited February 24, 2010 by Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
