Nick!

This is quite a creation!  I have no idea what it has been seemingly passed
over by the feedbackers, (and I apologize for waiting so long myself), but
this is really a cool MOC!

First, let me get this off my chest: good that you got a new camera, but what
you need now is some image editing.  First, shrink the images somewhat.
Perhaps keep one big image for detail purposes, but you really want your
images to be about 400-600 pixels high.

Also, i can see that the lighting for your pictures is the camera's flash.
I'd recommend getting a solid color backdrop (even some bed sheets nicely
drapped over a chair is good), then get a desk lamp or something to light the
MOC, rather than relying on the flash.  Sunlight or window light is always
beautiful, and will give enough light to give a good picture.

Lastly, back away from your model a little to cut down on blurry pictures.
It is always possible to crop on your computer.

Yeah, i know what you mean.  I took the pictures as soon as i got back from best
buy and twas dark by that time but i wanted to get those pics, excited by the
new camera.  As far as being passed over, I guess most dont read .castle.ninja
On to what I like:

* the landscaping around the temple is very nice.

* your roof rechnique is always cool. very enjoyable

* interior details, including the symbol on the floor is cool.

Thanks, the landscaping was very fun but difficult since it was the first time i
really tried my hand at doing a good job.  AS far as the roof, i wanted to do it
in black with corner pieces but the lack of them and extra money forced me to
more plentiful red and i suppose it turned out fine.  Personally my favorite
part is the torii, the arch at the bridge.  Anyway, thanks for commenting on it.
Feedback is nice especially on such big projects and even better when it
includes more than praise but helpful suggestions.



Overall, Jahmong is starting to look like a pretty nice place to live.

For now, but what does the future (well past for us) hold?..
