posades Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Let me start off by saying this is my first MOC, so no laughing or anything like that. My camera skills are unfortunately not that great, so apologies for that as well. Back story: The trolls were not amused. Someone was stealing their stolen treasure, and it had to be stopped. Surrounded by rocky cliffs, there was only one possible hiding spot for the thief: the forest, an eerily quiet locale densely populated with overgrown brush. Troll transports were sent deep into the forest, told not to return until the thief had been taken care of. One such transport finds a lead to the possible culprit, though it seems someone has also been following it... The forestman quietly descends on a vine, getting into position for the strike. Don't lose focus! Nice shot of the back of the troll transport and tree trunk. And a shot of the entire mini-MOC. As you can see, there is plenty room for improvement. I had trouble making the tree sturdy, especially the foliage which I was afraid would collapse if a fly landed on it. So let me know of ways to improve it, all constructive criticism is welcome (and no, "this sux" or "my dead grandma can build something better than this" does not count as constructive criticism).

Dadster Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Nice. Simple and cool. BTW - I've done something similar to my large trolls...yours looks more warlike than mine though. Quote
Duke Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 A nice little scene, great job on your first MOC! I especially like the construction of the tree, it looks quite natural (something I struggle with when making trees) Quote

Ah yes, you must have been the one I got the idea from in the "Show your Castle Army" thread (I was wondering who that was). All credit goes to you for the troll transport since I got my inspiration from your original one. Quote
I Scream Clone Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 A very nice creation, not bad for your first! Well done I especially like the troll riding the orc, or is it the other way around Quote
fujikuro Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Wow, very nice! I especially like the forest floor... packed with plants, and plenty detailed! Quote
WhiteFang Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Very nicely done! I love the landscaping which you have done, and it's defintely way much better and nicer than my first two attempts for this Forest ambush of mine. Well done. Quote
Dwarfinator Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Heh, nice battle crate. I liek the tree, too, very natural looking. Quote
