hmm looking at it..

I think im going to remove the furthest stone on the left. the one small one in the middle and all three small stones on the right and keep the one big one.

are you trying for an iwagumi feel? i'd spread the rocks on the left out more, everything looks really placed... i actually like the original scape better than the one you have now, but maybe that's just me.

I actually really liked the 1st one. I love that rock on the right in it. They both look good though.

Yea, I suppose you could say that. I don't have the right plants to make it look that good though. Just working with what I got. The removal of the smaller rocks was because I thought it looked cramped. I guess I could try spacing them all a little more.

Alright, this is what I have now, this time with a couple more angles.

Like that! Loving the rocks on the right again. But maybe tinker with the smaller of those two big ones on the left (that's a mouth-full) so that it's not so straight up and down?

Btw, are those rocks you found locally? I really love the color, wish we had some like that around here.

CatB · 07-06-2012, 02:27 AM

i like the new one! i agree with maybe tilting the big ones a bit, but it wouldn't be entirely necessary. it looks pretty darn good as is.

I think the first one looked really good.

**rainbuilder** · 07-06-2012, 02:47 AM

I'd go with the first picture, just add a few smaller rocks to the front and right of the large rock on the right.

Chrisinator · 07-06-2012, 02:58 AM

Are you able to tilt the rocks a little downward? I feel the lines are way too straight

jeremyTR · 07-06-2012, 03:09 AM

Here it is right now

I like how it looks.

Looks sweet man! Really like those rocks and the geometric shapes.

I am thinking I need to create a sandbox tank or something for figuring out my upcoming scapes. Don't have an extra big tank to play around in...
