My first attempt at a few vignettes...

About this creation

"I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere. Not like bricks. Bricks are shiny... and smooth..." -- Anakin Brickwalker

Like the brief intro says, this is my first attempt at making a few vignettes. I’ve never done anything like this at all before, so I tried to go micro and see how that went. These were more of an impulse creation, a few quick-and-easy builds so I have no idea how to rate it. I created a total of four vignettes of a similar fashion.

I started with trying to make some sort of desert hill with the weird piece you see beneath the tree on the left:

Then I decided to continue on with the desert theme and create some sort of oasis:

Somehow I felt like I needed bigger hills, so I chose a few tan 2x3 slopes and went from there, creating my smallest desert scene:

And finally, I combined a few of my last tan plates and decided to experiment with the tree, as well as making a rock.

Given the fact that I have absolutely no experience with this sort of building, I’m pleased with it, but I have a feeling that my scale may have been off a little. Hopefully practice makes perfect and I’ll improve in the future. Enjoy!

Very clean and attractive style! Sort of reminds me of that Minecraft Set they just released... Awesome work! :D

Quoting Flare . Nice! One thing I'd like to recommend, is that with the one with the river - the river should probably lower than the ground, it doesn't really make sense that it could be above ;)

Thanks Flare! I didn't really think about that--but I'll be sure to modify future designs.
