Homeward Bound!

[Garmadon]

After receiving a notice from Sir Uridius Dratiphe to return to Mitgardia, I started thence with a light and joyful heart. Upon reaching the border I reined in for a moment to gaze at the awe-inspiring sight. Who that has seen those rough plateau and snow-clad hills can but sense a thrill of joy on returning? Then, breaking into a gallop, I started for the mountains - homeward bound.

Mitgardia!

- Sir Douglass Winzer

Figless:

Just a quick little build to get Sir Douglass back from Avalonia.

I would like to recieve UoP credit for:

Landscape Design: (trees 2)

General Building: (forced perspective)

Geography: (mountains or cliffs)

C&C are welcome!

Nice scene! I really like the small mountains, but I think for it to rally work they either need to be a few studs farther back or the picture focused on the rider with a blurry background.

[cablefoxley]

Nice moc but I agree with dan, maybe the mountains being a couple of studs back might look better. Nice use of fig hands for a flag, really neat

This is great! One of the best forced perspective models I have ever seen! UoP +1

[Lord Vladivus]

Nice build! Love the flag!

Nice scene mate :) I like the use of forced perspective but I think it would make more impact a little further back :)

[robuko]

The mountain build and the flag are great. I think the moc would benefit from an intermediate horizon between Sir Winzer and the mountains to enhance the FP effect.

[Kai NRG]

Neat little build, I agree with others that the FP would work better if it were farther away. Great tree!

+1 for the credits (as the FP does look good!)

[Jakorin Swiftsword]

Nice job! The rockwork is fantastic and I love that little tree.

[Garmadon]

Thanks all!

Thanks LD, I would have liked to blur the background a little, but the mountains were to close to the rider to do that.

Thanks robuko, yes, the FP would probably have worked a better with the mountains farther away

I agree that the forced perspective could have been better, but depending on your camera, that could have been done by changing the angle and focus of the shot. A lower angle with a focus on the horse might have given the intended effect.

UoP DoH +1 for all claims.

Ah the soul stirs for the mighty rocky peaks of Mitgardia.

Thanks Gedren! A lower angled shot is a good suggestion, the only problem being that it makes the ground look a little odd

Cool scene Garmadon! I like the colors and the FP works well enough I think.

[Aland1916]

Beautiful landscape and tree, nice scene!

[Gideon]

Nice scene! The mountains look very good but I agree that a narrower depth of field would have improved the FP illusion.

UoP +1.

[Yzalirk]

Nice little build and I like the flag in the background using hands to represent it's in the distance. The mountains also look pretty good too so nice job.

+1 UoP DoH for all claims. Very nice moc, I really like how you made the mountains. I agree the forced perspective would b better farther back (it isn't quite pulled off), but very nice job nonetheless

[Gunman]

Well thought about looking back to Mitgardia :) I really like that tree, its well made.

Thanks! There should be a bonus for getting more than four approvals
