I assume this is just a vig - animating on that would be a nightmare.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

Not entirely, actually. The flatness is merely for the look; I hadn't planned any shot in the film that would show the character's feet, so I figured I'd just tear apart the floor as needed, and apply normal plates where the characters would be walking. It would all be out of shot, so you wouldn't know, unless I told you, which I just did. I also did it because I really wanted a tan floor, but didn't have enough plates.

One of the pluses of doing this is that the set is easier to take apart; the left wall, for example, is only connected to the set by about four studs; two in the front, two in the back, so it's pretty easy to remove if needed. I haven't found the other pluses yet.

So, any suggestions? Should add any carpeting? Furniture? It's a living room, by the way.

the whole idea is that it is an underground base sorta room with tree roots growing through and all of that good stuff, the lighting is different in the movie itself, i just want input on the set itself...

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

That looks pretty good.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

The roots going everywhere look great! mini/bigsmile

A red carpet would look cool, I think. How about taking out some of those tan plates and insert some red bricks in the same technique instead?

-Flip, this is a pretty interesting set. I like those tree roots.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

I made a tow-truck and a cop car last night.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

The truck is great, but personally, I think the LEGO City cop car is better. It is still a good job though.

You can do anything, just have fun while doing it.

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

The truck is great! The car one the other hand... I think the roof is too square, if you changed that... mini/smile

GET DA BOOM MICROPHONE OUT OV MA FAAAACCCEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Sets and Props Critique Thread

yup i guess the concensus is that you should continue to tweek the cop car a bit more...
