A Pirate Vignette!!
On an 8 x 8 base!
|
|
| |
I like it a lot! Seldom has so much been captured on an 8x8 base...
|
This raises a question in my mind... (1) is it just the base that has to
conform? I have seen several vignettes now that have figures or things
sticking out beyond the confines of the base... this one takes that to new
heights (er, widths).
1- I’m not sure WHO I am asking the question of, since there is no formal
vignette approval board etc, (2), but I did want to ask and see what people
think. After all, maybe I could put my whole mountain on an 8x8 base and call
it a vignette??? ...that doesn’t seem right somehow.

I read the http://news.lugnet.com/build/vignette/FAQ
looking at this question:
-> Q: Can a piece extend out beyond the base?
-> A: Yes. As a guideline, objects should extend out from the base no more
-> than 4 studs. However, some MOCs may require parts that extend father
-> from the base than 4 studs, due to the inherent length of the part,
-> and/or its requirement as an essential part of the vignette. As long as
-> it contributes to what the vignette represents, it is acceptable.
-> (Note: A tree built on a 6x6 base, with branches extending out to form
-> a 32x32 stud canopy would not be considered a vignette... and can easily
-> topple over as well.)
In my vignette it’s only 10 long where it needs to be (because of bricks)
but it also needs to be a slice (partial cross-section) of a sailing ship,
(acually a common type of ship model) so to do that I bellied out to show the
roundnest of the side of the ship ie. “its requirement as an essential part of
the vignette”.
I just thought that that this might appeal to people!

2 - thank goodness for that!

Amen!
