Photo 2 – A “little” help in the kitchen

When I came home yesterday, the house was smelling of some great cooking. I didn’t understand though, because my wife was ‘relaxing’ on her home-trainer. I got into the kitchen and saw who was responsible for my confusion!
How Cool Chef got so big, you say? I have no idea, but I suspect One eyed Willy the wizard has something to do with it.
PS. A little behind the scene’s fact: The place where all the vegetables are in this picture is the place where the very first photo of Cool Chef was taken on day 6 of the 730-project.
PPS. Only now did I notice… the proportions of Lego minifigures are WAAAAAY off! 😉
And don’t forget HERE’s the latest episode of the Foolish Lego webcomic, episode 146!
Wow! You even got him in the reflection 😯 The lid is a bit off, C.C. isn’t holding it.
🙂
Did you notice the reflection of his arm in the cooking-plate.
And WHAT do you mean, he’s not holding the lid!!! (I agree with you, it is a bit of 😉 )
I love it!
Thank you Flox!
FIrst thing first. And it really is a first! I have to admit that 1st time I saw this shot I was not so admiring. Mostly because iIwas surprised by a human sized Cool Chef I guess.
BUT! On the other hand, what a work on this one! Reflection, viewpoint and angles,… Amazing effect! And I’m telling you, giving the impression a minifig is holding something it actually doesn’t hold is really hard!
So great work but I honestly wish Cool Chef go back to his original size because… well the dude doesn’t need to be so tall to be so cool 😉
Don’t worry, on twitter someone asked about him and I already replied that I could find CC at the end of his cooking session. So i guess he’s already normaly dized by now or we would’ve read about it in the papers 😉
In all honesty, I understand. I myself like them more in their natural seize too. That sparks the imagination a lot more for me. And inlike the phantasy and the stories.
On the other hand, i do want to try some new stuff concerning photography / photoshop and this was an interesting one to do. Something like this probably will come along again sometimes… I’m wondering how to getbthe proportions of these minifigs working in the human world. In this photo for example it looks like CC is standing on something to reach the pots and pans.
I like the fact that you can always be positive even if you don’t really like a photo. I trait i would like to posses a little more myself. 🙂
I learned it from Thumper ( the rabbit from Bambi). “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all”. The good thing is I always have something to say about your work! 😉
