Only the bravest knights explored the deepest Temple ruins. Rumour spoke of mythical monsters that stalked the darkness. Even by candle light, you can’t be sure of what surprises await…
My entry into the @brickcentral monthly theme for April celebrating the 10 years of BC
I originally had something quite small planned for this months challenge to celebrate @brickcentral 10 year birthday! However, after a couple of days building, this MOC emerged! Inspiration came from some great fantasy artwork I found (like the below) and I really wanted to create a similar vibe.
Everything is practical with only a tiny amount of post processing. The all important candles where lit using some micro orange LEDs and they provided most of the light for the scene (a long time was spent hiding wires from the camera!). There are also two small LEDs used as ‘fill lights’ just to bring out the dragon and our brave knight a little more. Some slight haze was added with a face mister to help add to the vibe (also gave the added benefit of making the LED candles look a bit more realistic).
Safe to say, I’m am very happy to have stumbled across the @brickcentral community a couple of years ago. Without the amazing friendships made and inspiring pictures taken each month (and useful tips and hints) by the community, I don’t think I would have had the motivation to push my Lego photography forward. Happy birthday @brickcentral.
