very cool cyclonis i really like the background

Yes, the background is good, but I especially liked your incorporation of the soccer torso... with a cape it's perfect.

Is the other one a soccer torso? If not, I don't see why he has the 'scabbard'... It only looks cool with a sword in it, in my opinion.

Ditto on previous statements. I love the background, and that's a genius use for the soccer torso. I know I say this a lot, but I have to try that idea!

Yeah, its a soccer torso. I don't have any other red capes left, cause I used the last one on one of my archers:

So I had to use a scabbard to cover it. You can also hold shields in the clips, aswell, but it looks a little too bulky with them in. Glad to see you like it.

Good job Mr.C!

It displays action in a small compact scene.

Perhaps a word of advice from a noob. If you made the wall a bit higher, and added a balcony, could you include a lady or king watching from above.

Just an idea.

A tip:
Put a quiver on the archer instead.

Btw, why did you make stickers for the shields? Wouldnt it be better make a new faction with the colors, its not the best looking shield with those colors, you know.

But perhaps you are like me- tries to fit it into the "Lego Universe".

Nice vig. I want to see it from more angles.

It isn't???

I beg to differ. The Royal Knights have an excellent coat of arms.

Matters of opinion like that should NEVER be stated as fact...

I do....

Cyclonis - Great vig, and I agree with Graynar. It could be cool with a balcony and a lady. If it would be possible to fit in of course. And some different angles would be great as well.

Nice vig. I don't have anything new to add really. The soccor torso worked out well. I'd make a complete faction of people wearing that if I had that torso.

I'm going to make a small army of soccer shirt-wearing knights.

Anyway, I tried it out with the balcony. I don't have any queens of the kind, but i tried it out with a king:

Hey the balcony looks good.

You should make a number of castle vigs that connect to this one. Once all are together it forms a castle.

Hey, that's not a bad idea. Could be fun!

Cyclonis · Post by **Cyclonis** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 3:56 am

haha thats what i was thinking as I was making it.

I couldn't find a 1x2 light gray brick, but I found one with a pin on the side, and i was gonna put it in the wall, and then just make another vignette with a 1x2 light gray brick with a hole in the side in the wall or something and then clip them together, and then i thought 'hey, I could just continue this and then make a big display or something!' , but then i found a 1x2 light gray brick, so the thought was over.

But yes I might actually persue this and see how it turns out.

Yes, that added a lot more life to it.
