That duvet is cleverly built, but looks weird. You're much better off with just using a bit of cloth.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

Not exactly a prop, or a set, but there is no thread that would suit it any better. Perhaps a "LEGO Creations" thread would solve this problem.http://emob674.photobucket.com/albums/vv104/NXTManiacStudios/NewSite/Creations/VIVA/viva.png

Do you have many plates? A trick I've used many times is getting all my dark grey plates and putting them all over the green so it looks like that's the colour of the ground/floor.

A set I've had built for a while for a serial I'm developing titled Foundations. The white corners on the roof aren't permanent.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

Aghh, I don't get why I have so little grey! Were do you buy all of it?

The man with the turban, is that accurate? I like the green on the walls but I can see a wall in the top left corner. I also like the feel of depth, but the other buildings (not the stone one) need to have a colour change. It looks odd. One half is new the other is like 90's Lego. Yellow and flesh? Really?

Thats not yellow and flesh. That is flesh and light flesh.

He's meant to be a trader from another land. As you'll see in the film, the setting will allow historical anachronism.

If you're referring to the orange background, that's temporary.

I don't really understand what you mean by this.

No yellow here. mini/smile

I don't really like the black and the brown. One side is the old Western theme style, the other is the new Castle theme. I don't like that contrast between the two. It feels like two separate sets.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

Hmm. I will try to post a different angle of it soon so you can see the building as a whole.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

By serial do you mean a film about a serial killer?

Used to be 'Caidence'

I got a HUGE amount of grey bricks and parts in Star Wars sets a few years ago, in less than a year I probably got over 500 grey bricks.

Should I add a door? It's incomplete but I will update.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

I don't get it....

Is it a wall in progress, is it a stage, what is it?

Don't be fooled, my avatar is a facade of conformity.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

It's a castle.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

Ah, ok. I think you should add a large door to the set.
