M<0><0<DSWIM Posted December 31, 2011 Very nice work here, especially with the landscape, although I'm not too crazy about the figs not "straddling" their bikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hollander Posted December 31, 2011 Fantastic work indeed! The speeder bikes are great, and so is the vegetation, and especially the tree in the background which gives your creation the last touch of texture it needs. Not to mention the awesome photography.

Brickmamba Posted January 1, 2012 nice lil moc, the body of the speeders a lil too 'solid' for me, really like that last pic with the blurred background Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter Posted January 1, 2012 Thanks everyone! I'm glad you all enjoyed it. I'd also like to thank Brickdoctor for the blog post! I've been getting a lot of comments about the photography. Does everyone enjoy the more textured/unedited background I've been using now? I used to 'edit' out the backdrops, but i recently stopped due to issues with the results. Leaving the backdrop unedited has worked for me in some photos (Such as this one), while I've struggled with getting a decent backdrop in others (Like this one). However I think I'll stick to it for now, untill I figure out how to do it better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted January 1, 2012 It looks fine. With the lighting this good, it gives the photos a more natural look than editing out the background. (plus, the best way when editing out white backgrounds to make the photo realistic is to have realistic shadows, which is impossible on pure black - reflections are nice on black, though) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StoutFiles Posted January 1, 2012 I like it other than Luke. He shouldn't be wearing his black outfit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mutley777 Posted January 2, 2012 A very nice MOC! Luke looks great with the Endor Rebel helmet and those speeder are excellent! The foliage looks very lush just like Endor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
