Garmadon Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Found extensively throught Mitgardia, diamonds can be mined and expoted at great profit to the mine owners and to Mitgardia as a whole. My entry to the Trade/Economy Titans title challenge: Uridius sells his diamonds to Ageven. The Miner and the Diamond Cutter: Except for the fact that there aren't any more pic, I would put my normal "here's my Flickr", but here it is anyways : http://www.flickr.co...hoto_8514860309 C&C are welcome, and thatnks for the challenge, Ecc.

soccerkid6 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Great to see another entry! The diamond mine is a great idea and looks very good The shack fits in nicely and it's always cool to see multiple sigs in a build. One thing that bothers me a bit is that the water is higher than the grass and the same height as the dirt, if you raised the grass and dirt sections by a brick I think it would look better Quote
Gideon Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) Nice build! I always enjoy seeing civilian builds, since it usually takes some more creativity than my habitually militaristic approach to lego. Are the external trans-clear cheese slopes supposed to be diamonds or ice? To me it looks as a nice way of building some "winter's last melting ice" if that was the intention. I agree with SK that the fact that the water is higher is disturbing me a small bit, but then again mines often have dams for various purposes and the grey shoreline could be interpreted as a low dam as well ;) Edited February 28, 2013 by Gideon Quote
Kai NRG Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Nice job! Did I forget to mention that when I journeyed through Mitgardia? You could use a bit more grass work there, but I'm always short on foliage myself so that's easy to understand. And as far as the water being higher, well, that's probably why the barn thing is raised off the ground... Like the rock work especially though! Quote
Ecclesiastes Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Great stuff! Loving the rockwork, it looks very organic and the shad design is also excellent. Altough it would be more realistic; The water isn't really bothering me, because in the Netherlands we are used to live next to water that is on higher ground than dry land Quote
kabel Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 nice mine garmadon! @eccles: Hehe, the Netherlands are a strange country Quote
Garmadon Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Thanks everyone! You guys seem to think it is nicer than I though t it was myself Great to see another entry! ... One thing that bothers me a bit is that the water is higher than the grass and the same height as the dirt, if you raised the grass and dirt sections by a brick I think it would look better Well, the main problem with that would be that I would have to raise the dirt to, and besides, I don't have too much grass Are the external trans-clear cheese slopes supposed to be diamonds or ice? To me it looks as a nice way of building some "winter's last melting ice" if that was the intention. Well, I thought they added a nice touch: interpret them whichever way you like. Quote
de Gothia Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 A great idea for sure! My favourite part is the minifig posing! They look very much alive! Quote
