Rough Water

The ship in this diorama by builder Kloou is lovely, and deserving of attention. But really I can't stop looking at the water. This looks incredibly tedious, fragile, frustrating, time consuming and maddening, not to mention the part count. It also looks absolutely marvelous, and is worth all the heartache (easy for me to say, I didn't have to build it).

Terror From The Deep

Nothing like being attacked by a kraken to ruin an otherwise peaceful day at sea huh? This latest Iron Builder entry from Legopard uses loads of the seed part, a silver technic connector. But they're so well integrated you barely notice. That's not to say they're hidden, that's not the point, just click through and check out the high res picture, you'll see what I mean. And that water work, stunning! It captures the motion and intensity of the scene perfectly.

Batten Down The Hatches!

Here's another fun fact, I get sea sick. Or more to the point, motion sick. I've only been out on a boat a few times, and I was feeding the fish before very long every time. So I cannot fathom the shade of green I'd be aboard this totally amazing MOC by peggyjb. Of course the ship is lovely, but the waves and the composition of this shot is excellent.
