Defense of the Sea Base

If I were to make a rock wall formation, it'd be impossible for any advancing forces to reach the base, unless they were sophisticated enough to actually climb up. But nooooo, these are Droids.

Maybe a bit more rocks, anything. The shapes are firaly nice though, it doesn't look unnatural at all. I mean, they're shaped, so they're not noobish, but beyond that, blug. The canon is nice, but simple.

True, I could get a couple rocks there.

Spider droid is a set.

Point being? Oooh, I know now, you mean no official TLC sets or minifigs! Of course.

Agree with wrecks on the awkwardness of the back legs.

I could've changed the legs, but if you can see, the legs end right where the diorama ends. No overhang.

Clones are the rest of it. Work on it a bit.

I doubt I will, as I have plenty other stuff to do than revise this. I might revisit the concept, though.

No. Sets are allowed, sometimes, rarely, but in something this small with no other major interest point it doesn't work well. A ship is generally in interestpoint of the MOC, since this has no outstanding landscaping, and the most interesting thing you have is a spider droid.

It still looks really awkward.

It's good enough, you don't need an outstanding point in your MOC, whether it's a huge mech getting oblitherated, or a small Droid getting blasted to bits.

Agreed
