Vignweek 2021: Franklin's Kite
Here's my entry for the second prompt of RebelLUG's Vignweek 2021 contest, with the theme of historical (being defined as roughly 500 AD to 1800). I wanted to try and do something more out of the box than just medieval or pirates, as I figured that those themes would be done a lot here. So, I went with something from early US history, and chose to depict Benjamin Franklin and his famous kite experiment that helped us understand the connection between lightning and electricity. I'm really happy with how this build turned out, I'm very pleased with how the cloud and lightning bolt turned out, especially after my first attempt at the lightning bolt was pretty garbage. I do wish I could've figured out a better way to hide or reduce the trans-clear bricks but unfortunately I needed the support for the cloud and lightning bolt. Anyway, hope y'all like it and check back for more builds soon!
