Anyone up for an un-official Lego Modelling contest?
Alrighty, since I've had a hankering for HW2, I decided to build most...if not all of the Vaygr (and some of the Hiigarian) ships.

And I got an idea...why not...since a few people here have lego, why not have a lego building contest, right here!
--------------
TeH Rulez!
--------------
1: ) Pick a Sci-fi game.

2: ) Choose a ship or vehicle from the game.

3: ) Get some Lego. (MLCadded ships will be judged in a separate category)

3: ) Start building!
-----------------------

Try using as much lego, and as much detail as possible with the models, here's my Vaygr Heavy Missile Frigate to show you just how much detail I mean. (It's 49 studs long FYI)

So, just enough to give it form and playability, don't go overboard.

Entry's can be posted here, show a pic of the in-game ship, and a pic of the ship you built.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Judging will be done by a public vote, voters should be looking for:

1: How close it is to the in-game model.

2: playability (i.e. moving parts, "shwooshability", etc)

3: How you used the bricks/built the ship (use different building techniques to overcome parts limitations, or shortages)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contest starts now, and will go on for...a month.

...need to talk to some admins to see if I can get this semi-stickied...

That's all, good luck and good building!

I'll submit some pictures, if my little brother hasn't killed the Medusa model designed by Petrarch yet.

Oh man... if we'd had this thread like ten years ago, before I gave all my legos to my younger cousins in Malaysia, this would be so cool. ;)

A shame, isn't it? I live in the hope that little dudes somewhere out there are discovering the joy of Lego. ;)

get 'em up! I may also...bend the rules...slightly....

*goes to edit his first post*

You are allowed to use MLCad or any other lego cadding program, but they'll be in another catagory.

...and I may also have the community vote on which is the best ship entry...that'd be interesting...

*edits some more*

There!

Good luck with the building people!

Does C&C:RA class as Sci Fi?

It's fiction, and has science...

 
Anyone up for an un-official Lego Modelling contest?
*sigh*

...I suppose it does...but C&C:TS counts more, considering all the future stuff, RA is more...in the here and now...but...I'll accept it.

Yeesh - I've made a couple of Lego ships for my own sci-fi franchise, one of which still exists as an actual model. It was used as the basis for The Swarm War's Senshi-class Heavy Cruiser.

Does it HAVE to be Sci-Fi? I used to be a dab hand at making Lego models of WWII warships.....
