I like the peasant camping out the best. Great use of terrain in that one. The day at the beach, and the swamp are great too. The house is good but seems to lack something, I can't quite put my finger on it though. The farmer and his crops is a bit boring. Maybe if it was on brown instead of green and have a little more variety to the ground or something.
Great job!
Josh

Thanks for the input, Josh! Next time I build one of those type MOCs, I'll Keep in mind what you said I still need to make the roof on the house, perhaps that is what's missing.
Thanks!
Thanks!

You have some nice stuff there. I really like beach scene, but what does that orange flower represent? A starfish? Your peasant one is also really charming and you did a really good job at terraforming. The swamp looks good, but needs a minifig to bring in some action to the scene. The farmer one is rather dull, adding more colors to the terrain and adding details like a wheel (you know, the wooden ones) may help the creation. I have no clear idea on the house though. Anyways, keep working and you'll get better.

Thanks for the comments, Scnicker! Actually, the flower is supposed to represent a sand dollar, but it might be a bad thing to use.Scnicker wrote:You have some nice stuff there.

Yeah, it doesn't really look like a sand dollar. There is a clickit piece which would work as one though...J_Chartowich wrote:[Actually, the flower is supposed to represent a sand dollar, but it might be a bad thing to use.

I saw the v-pod on Bruce's blog, I think, and really liked it. The camping MOC looks good, too--good landscaping!

I like the use of the pod itself in the v pod, though what really strikes me is a peasant having time to camp...
God Bless,

These are all really great. I think the peasant camping is my favorite.

Yeah, I agree, maybe just a peasant torso with the scared face and a hood. He could be sinking in to the bog.Scnicker wrote: The swamp looks good, but needs a minifig to bring in some action to the scene.

As with most others, I like the peasant camping out the best - that little hill has some nice landscaping, and the whole scene overall looks appealling. I like the way that the peasant is not the center of the whole creation, but just off to the side of the whole cool scene.
