Five Hiding Ninja

[Peppermint_M]

Five ninja hiding.

This is the first of 16 planned "bigs" to showcase the figures I got in the box of 60. Can you spot all the ninja?

I decided upon the 16x16 baseplate for the neatness of numbers and the fact that it can have five minifigures plus scenery, but will not swamp three figures. The max/min numbers being 3 of each up to 5 included in a box.

I hope to have one a day until all 16 are covered, but it may slip if I can't keep up the builds...

Eeeehm, let's see...

That's a neat idea Peppy. Looking forward to the other 15. I especially like the blossoming tree in this one.

[Zorro]

Yes, a good idea for a project you were looking for!

Please share them all .

[Darth Hawken]

Cool idea! I was thinking about doing a similar thing but I'll have to wait till I get my box in June

[sok117]

Good idea, a suggestion though would be to keep all of them in one post, that way it could be like a series instead of having the nurses in the town forum, the robots in the sci-fi froum, the zombies in the other forum, and so on. But anyways, I can't wait to see your next creation.

Well, you could always make an index thread once they're all done.

I feel like its one of those children's shows where the main character is staring at the screen asking the audience to find something and it is obviously behind them. great job on the vig and i look forward to seeing the others.

[Peppermint_M]

Thanks guys. Glad you like the tree, I am working on different techniques

I am going to index them once it is all done.

Shadows suggested I post each big in the relevant sub-forum (plus it means more people will see the ones they would be interested in). After all, the figures are too diverse for one place. I am also going to make them a Flickr Set, or Brickshelf folder once I have finished them all.

Each big will feature theme appropriate scenery, but at a slightly small scale, like a "Small World" scene or themed minigolf hole .

That tree is the best.

So simple, but so nice.

[BlueBard]

Great and creative idea!

[Big Cam]

Very clever, it makes me jealous that I can't buy these yet.

I found them

[lightningtiger]

Great idea and I think they are Ninja's-in-training as I found them all !

I'm a conformist! !

Funnily enough, there are actually 17 ninja hiding in the image, however, as the profile page for the ninja explains, he isn't very good a hiding .

[brickzone]

I'm reminded of the Monty Python sketch, "How Not to Be Seen" :)

[not-in-use-anymore]

Well, at least that one in the lower left was hidden enough for me to only see him after the first 1.5 seconds.

[Peppermint_M]

Next Big is Up!. Glad everyone likes this one, hope you like the second.

Strangely, historic themes are quite prevelant in the collection.

[WhiteFang]

Great start to this challenging vig!

Can I spot all of them? Of course, I do.

I find this creation, evenly spread instead of being so cramped and at the same time, having so nice details such as the flowing river and terrain features.

Although the spaceman is definitely my favourite of the figs you've used, this is definitely the best display. If I saw it in a shop display I'd be yelling "mum, I want it, I want it". To which she'd reply

"son, you're in your 30s, stop emabarrassing me"

[squiz]

Couldnt help but be reminded of your moc when i saw this news article

[BrickPerfection]

"Hiding" Ninjas

I still very much like the relatively large amount of detail and the general idea!

Just figured it out today, should have posted earlier...

[Ras 74]

A nice bignette! Like your little tree with the flowers.

Good idea of a serie as well.
