Full Plate Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Hello! A small shack I made as a home for one of my son's "flying guys" (essentially a minifig with wings attached). The house had to be high up so only he could reach it, and with no roads going there. Between the choices of treehouse and house on a cliff, I chose the latter, for simplicity's sake, although the thought of building a treehouse sounds like a lot of fun. So here it is; The Stone Shack. After it was finished and I had taken the photos, my son asked me why there was a fence there, since the guy could fly. Good point... Oh well This is my first time trying to make a "greeble wall" and also making walls and roof with strange angles. I've seen really excellent examples of this here at EB, so I wanted to try some techniques to do it. I found it quite a challenge, even in a small build like this, and especially mounting the roof was a pain. But hopefully I've learnt something from it. For some reason, which I can't put my finger on, I'm not really happy with how the greenery turned out. Maybe it's too similar to what I've done before and it is starting to feel generic. Time to try something new perhaps Hope you enjoyed the build! C and C is always welcome Quote
Exetrius Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I really like the overall shape of this, the dense folliage looks nice and the roof and balcony are superb! The walls may be a bit too 'greebled', but look quite good. Great build! Quote
Legocity2713 Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Very cool, love how the (for lack of a better word) patio gets narrower. Love those railings too. Excellent job my friend, very detailed MOC, keep it up. :thumbup: Edited May 25, 2015 by Legocity2713 Quote
Blufiji Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I like the detail in the shack though I feel the rock work doesn't match. Overall great job. Quote
Jreacher Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 cool little shack MOC, liek the use of various pieces to give it that run down look. Quote
Balbo Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Excellent! I really like how you made the roof. Moreover the texturing of the wall and the vegetation is very nice, too Quote
