Topic: Help with props
Ok so I'm doing a new short where it is filmed in a house. I have most of it set up ok, I have the walls some windows and a shelf with stuff on it, but I'm having a hard time with house props.

I find that these folks are sometimes helpful with that sort of stuff.
Is the set you're talking about in your sig? (EDIT: And now it isn't.)
Okay, so let's start with the walls. Why are they yellow? A not so crazy color would work better.
On the right side of the couch, the baseboard is sticking out. It should be flush with the wall, like on the left side of the couch.
The couch is the same color as the wall, so it kind of blends in. Having it a different color would make it stand out more.
The couch's design looks blocky. Here's a couch I designed for the Bricks living room set:
Also seen in this picture are sidetables, something else that adds to a set. A coffee table would be good as well.

Thanks! ![]()
Scroll through here. There are some really creative designs and, while not all them will be suitable for animation, you should be able to get some ideas. ![]()
How about MocPages.com? A little search on the big daddy of all lego creation sites i always helpful. Look at some of the things built by Alex Eylar, Sir Nadroj and Michael Jasper. They all make excellent stuff.
I must diagree with the yellow thing though. I much prefer it when the walls are some more interesting color as opposed to plain white.
Another thing is, hang stuff on the walls. Like get tiny stickers of famous paintings or posters or print them out or something and stick them to the wall.
