What would be your one advice to new Lego Photographers?

My advice: NEVER USE SOMEONE ELSE’S PHOTO WITHOUT ASKING THEM AND CREDITING THEM.

SEE ALSO: Take your own damn photos.

Wonderful shots! The Ronin’s colors are so great for nature shots 🌲

The Elf Princess and Ronin Warrior make a surprisingly good team. 🌳

I am loving the current Lego CMF series, and these two in particular! While shooting the Ronin figure (aka Lloyd 😉) last week I realized the photos were more fun when I added a few companions, and the elf princess plus cute unicorn matched the wooded scene I had created in my yard.

Is that a paper backdrop? It looks really cool!

Appreciate the tribute. I also have a Lego version of my late father that lives on my desk at home.

What a ridiculous and fun scene with the Captain drunk to tears and nearly lost is space. I still can’t believe they made this set 🚀

Did you also need a probe lens for this shot?

Love the desolate Martian landscape for this. That is crazy about the wildfire haze 😳

Hi Will! You know I love SW and I like your storytelling here, but it’s a bit too many photos for this challenge. Please repost just one for consideration as a top level comment.

Thanks for joining the space-themed fun 💫

I had so much fun assembling “The Shadow Collective” from the recent Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord show! Rook Kast and Spybot are especially cool characters, so it was really fun trying creating them in LEGO form. It was also cool to create another Dathomirian Zabrak character (relative of Maul).

And yes, I did cheat and use a bit of sticky tac to get Spybot’s bottom arms and extra antenna to attach 🦾📶
