OK friends, I'm back from my mates wedding and I can finally upload this MOC!!! As I said I did a bit of experimenting with water effects and texturing, also playing around with foliage from my last BL order - and this little beauty is what I've managed to produce. In hind sight I think next order I make I might swap my quantities of Tr Blue wedges and Clear wedges. Overall I am very happy with the options I now have in MOCing.

I love water and banks with foliage. Only trees looks to fat against branches/leafs. But hey, who says it is copy of reality?
Perfect sceene. |

Odd, I recall commenting on this, but I do not see my comment. Let's have another go. I love how you used the trans blue and the clear, really gives the water that natural sparkle (The flash helped a bit too). A very nice looking bit of landscape!
Haha shot Bones, Thanks. I had to copy paste my comment to Kelso's Frame Job because it wouldn't post properly... ~Thoy |

Mah boi, this moc is what all aspiring landscapers strive for. Actually, it is. I really want to build something up to par with this, but extreme lack of trans-blue tiles slows me down. Experimenting with water and undertones is fun! After my date with Bricklink I might be able do something this size, but not nearly as good. No, no. Amazing work!
Go to 'Specialist-in-bricks' shop on BL, the dude just put up 5000 TR Dark Blue Tiles at 7c each. I got myself another 2200. Cheers for the comment! ~Thoy |

Wow! You've got a nice touch for modeling water. If it's ok, I might use some of your techniques. |

your 1x1 clear wedges in the river are all facing the water fall have you thought of turning them around. I think they look a bit like little waves.
Hey Amanda,this was the intention I had in mind, but rather then looking like aggresive forceful waves I wanted to get the effect of ripples in the water. So trying to avoid the vertical slope of the wedges :) Thanks for the comment. ~Thoy |

I really like the way you did your waterfall.
The only thing I noticed is that your 1x1 clear wedges in the river are all facing the water fall have you thought of turning them around. I think they look a bit like little waves. :) just a thought |

Wow! Beautiful stuff! This is truly realistic. Wedge pieces are fun aren't they! Looking forward to the next one with some ruins.
Yes I think my next MOC wont be ready for about 4 weeks. I'm thinking of making another order of foliage, and perhaps some Light Bley. Will be my first attempt at ruins so I wanna take my time with it. Thanks Mate. ~Thoy |

Very nice water! The sloping elements in particular, create shimmering effect that looks terrific.

Dang that's some nice work. I may have to get rid of you and steal your trans bricks.
Haha cheers! Unless you live in NZ though it may cost more to get rid of me than to just get your own :P. Thanks for the comment John! |
