LCC-Loreos, LC7. Oasis at Sunset.

Post by Mark of Falworth »

Mark of Falworth stops at an oasis just before nightfall, it will be a tiring journey to Capernum, a cup of cool water will help the long ride..

For the Glory of Loreos!!!

My entry to the LC7 "Thirst!"


This was a fun build to make! :) And BTW, It is not photoshopped, that would be two easy!
I've built two scenes almost identical, yet one is the inverse of the original.

See this picture to see how it was done \/

How on Earth did you come up with the idea to build a mirror-image of the first one to get that effect? Very awesome!

Nicely played, Mark, very nice. The inverted scene is inspired. I blogged this on TBB this morning.

It was late one evening, And I couldn't fall asleep, My mind was restless. So I decided to plan the my next LC entry. Anyone can build a well, or even an oasis, what could I do to make my build stand out? Suddenly I remembered a picture I had seen that had a lake with a mirrored image in the water, That's when the thought hit me. I built the scene the next day. :)
