LCC, A Slaughter on the Beach.

Post by Mark of Falworth »

A band of rebels calling themselves the "black scourge"
have come into the Lands of Classic Castle.
A force of knights deceided to stop them from spreading destruction and ruin.
The rebel band did not realise it was surrounded. And they paid for their ignorance.

C&C welcome!

You need to post a thumbnail here unless you don't actually WANT people to leave comments anywhere by Flickr ;)

Great job on the MOC. The rock work was cool, and it has a fun storyline to go with it.

Keep up the good work! :mrgreen:

Yeah, I can't figure out how to post a picture! I've been to the FAQ I still didn't get it. :( Can you please explain?

Go to your Flickr picture and right-click on it. Go to "medium 500". This should be small enough to post on CC, but keep in mind that it can only be 400 pixels high, so it won't work for some "profile oriented" pictures. If that's the case, you may have to use "Small" (but that is really too small to see anything very well)

Once you are at "medium 500" screen, right click on your pic and click "copy image location".

Now, you can click the "Img" button on the CC formatting bar and paste the link, which should end in ".jpg"
Alternately, you can type it out. use [ instead of my { below:

{img}http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7037/6888 ... 5.jpg{/img}

if you want your picture to be "clickable" and take you to the flickr page when you click it, copy the link from your main flickr stream (ie, don't right click on it and go to the "medium 500" screen). Then, paste the link to the stream like {url=http://www.flickr.com/yourlink/photostr ... /img}{/url}

Final result is:

Hope that helps! :)

Hey Mark,
Your water just keeps getting better and better. Have you tried using smaller blue pieces? Perhaps 1x1 plates? I think that would add a lot of detail to the water. Naturally that would be slightly expensive though.... :D

I like the cliff, the action and the irregularity of the water (though it doesn't look like waves). Great job!
And the palms add really to the picture, as they make it dynamic. Without them it would be a much more static, dull scene.

That's a very good idea! I'm heading to the LEGO store tomorrow, and I'll see if I can get some! :)

Pretty cool, I like the plot and the cliff but to go with what Blego7 said maybe you could add clear and trans-blue studs sprinkled over it to give it a glittery reflection?

I know you built to focus on the rocks, but it's the trees that have me excited- the dino fin one especially is fantastic.

Thanks! That's a very good idea! If you look closely I did add some trans-clear studs in the dark tan shore area, But trans-light-blue in the rest would look very good. I'll see what I can do next time. :D

Thank you! I'm getting more dino fins in the mail soon, so you'll probably see more dino/palm trees in future. :)

I know I have already left a comment on flickr but it bares repeating - awesome water effect, way to think outside the box
