Hey Brendan,
Great to see new installments so soon.
Canaanite Dogs - I like the building on the right in the first picture quite a
lot. What’s the bowl on the left in the second picture, by the way. It’s nice
to see a little bit of landscaping in the background. One of my complaints with
BT is that often your landscaping is all flat baseplates.
Disciples Sent Out - Hmm, the green flame thing is kinda cool but it says more
“Emperor killing Luke” than “Jesus blesses disciples” to me. I love the
expression when the disciple is being fed a bug. The raining flames with burnt
bodies in the background scene is very effective.
Lazarus Reanimated - Great hammock solution. In MM&L’s house i like the beams
offset by half a stud quite a lot. Good cave and cliff. It took a bit for me
to figure out what the grill tile was at Lazarus’ feet - I’m not sure if that’s
effective. Switching in the Vader head for the mummy head works well.
Jesus and the Poor - Funny but sick take on the leper. Those offset bricks are
nice in the wall and the doors-as-table is surprisingly effective.
Jesus Curses a Tree - Hmm, I’m not sure if the withered tree works. I think it
would be better if you recreated the camera shot from the first pic in the story
with Jesus walking away and the tree in soft focus in the background.
Temple Tantrum - LOL on the name. This is probably my favorite of this batch,
as everything in here works really well. The action is particularly well
portrayed in the “turning over the tables of the moneychangers” scene.
The End of the World - Along with Temple Tantrum, another very well done story.
I like the building in the first scene quite a lot, and the earthquake is cool.
Bring out your dead brought a smile to my face. In Matt. 24:9, the column made
of twisted technic ribbed hoses doesn’t really work, IMO. It looks like it
should be in a sci-fi, rather than ancient, setting. The clouds and the rapture
scenes are really good, but the most effective scene of all is the fires of
Hell. Great work.
Bruce
