[Gunman]

Hey guys, here is my contribution to Mitgardia

South of Tundra, before the Demon's Ridge, lies the named "Ancler River".

Very nice build! Colourful and greatly detailed! And the little hut is very cute!

[Lord Vladivus]

Great build! Love all the details.

Excellent build! The water wheel design is very clever and the little hut next to it looks great I like how you included the Mitgardian colors and the yeti and gnome are great touches The landscape overall is also excellent, keep it up

[janatale]

Looks great, I love the colors, and the use of the green plastic that the plants come attached to as vines. (no idea if those have a name)

[LegoDrake]

A great little river! The hut is excellent, as is the gnome and yeti hiding places.

[The Yeti]

That waterwheel is amazing. I also really like the off-center hut, particularly in the 4th photo; it feels almost real. Thumbs up for the inclusion of the yeti and elf, they're great little touches. Your sense of movement and life with the wheel, figs and river is also impeccable, great work. My only constructive criticism is that it looks like you post-edited your photos to make them more vibrant, and it almost seems too intense; although that may just be my yeti snow blindness.

Excellent build. It was a cool surprise to see the little cave hide-a-way.

really great moc gunman, quite a few things I really like about it. Starting with the water and so on ... also extremely nice back of the build, wish I had that many brick bricks!

[mrcp6d]

Wowzers. Love the colors and the details in this!

[HammerBro]

Nice water technique and use of exo force heads.

[Legonardo]

This is pretty cool, keep it up!

[Gideon]

Nice little river, I like that water wheel and the small bridge...simple but clever design

Can't help but wonder how the caves don't fill up with water when being so close to the river however

[Gunman]

thanks a lot guys

@gideon, the small gnome keeps running around and fixing all the holes xDD

[Wedge09]

Great work :thumbup: I really like it

[Rolli]

Wonderful build! I especially love the water wheel! Also nice incorporation of all the new CMFs - love the elf with his stash!

Also your photography is great as usual. Hope you don't mind the question but what do you use to make the colors appear like that? Is it the white balance setting, the lights or the editing? Hope you can shed some light on that.

[Gunman]

thanks a lot Rolli. the main difference that makes the photo pop more and be more clear is by increasing the "shadows" at editing (i use lightroom for editing). this way you eliminate most of the shadows between pieces and it looks better.

i dont change vibrances saturations etc.

edit: ah and if i remember correctly at this shot i pushed a bit up the luminance of green colour

Fantastic job with this, lots of lovely details! Lovely border, cleans and simple. I am jealous of all your profile bricks...

[kermit]

This looks so great. The water effect with the trans blue studs is awesome.
