Very nice looking of a MOC! Captures the scene very well! Great job

[KristofBD]

Nice job!

[BrickCurve]

Nice one. I think the green you used is too bright compared to the movie. The olive grass and olive leaves would have worked better here. Apart from that the MOC is excellent, thought the grass could be a little thicker.

[Black Numenorean]

Great uruk hai army and nice scene!

[LittleJohn]

Fantastic recreation of this scene The trees are excellent, as are the rock formations

[soccerkid6]

Great build of a great scene I like that you included the fallen statue, and those trees look appropriately large and dense

[Captain Braunsfeld]

Great - the original scene is well captured!

[songwm]

My god, really nice remake of this classic scene!

Very nice work capturing this scene. That's also a nice rabble of uruks you have there.

I have to agree, the olive would work better for the grass. I've never liked the fact that the standard plants/foliage Lego produces, is made using the bright green.

I'll third that. Unfortunately, I have a complete lack of olive green foliage. Thus, I had to make do with what I had and stick with the standard green/dark green combination on the leaves.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments! If anyone has a suggestion as to what I should do next, I'd love to hear it. I'm always looking for ideas :)

Great rendition of the scene, the trees look superb. The only thing I would change would be to remove the chest armour from the Uruk Hai, because the scouts didn't wear it and the torso print is made for them.

Amazing recreation of that scene!! You've captured that moment perfectly.

[kurigan]

I like your scene better actually. Somehow the mini-figs are more intimidating than the rabble of made-up actors. Proubally because yours actually look like a trained army, being in something more like formation. I'm far from an expert of rendering foliage in Lego, but IMHO I think you did rather well here.

This scene always gave me goosebumps, actually it still does every time I re-watch the movies. You excellently captured this scene!
