MrTools Posted August 3, 2009 I have officialy began work on it today, here are some picture of whats going on so far... Overall shot The ground will not stay black however. I plan to smooth it off with some light or dark grey tiles not too sure what this room will be yet, i might just finish it with a TV on the large empty wall between the windows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doctordark Posted August 3, 2009 Wow that looks really good and it's pretty big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueBard Posted August 3, 2009 Looks very very promising! I look forward for the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hewkii9 Posted August 3, 2009 I like this, looking forward to seeing it complete! Maybe the room you've already got built, could it be a sort of rec room? It's got a couple good windows, maybe put a ping-pong table or a retro arcade machine in? Vending machine, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted August 3, 2009 It looks great so far. I love that room already, so the rest seems promising Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glacarcheo Posted August 5, 2009 This looks very promising, but the colors don't seem very PMy, I suggest adding more orange/lime green. Otherwise, good job, I love the windows! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posades Posted August 5, 2009 This looks very promising, but the colors don't seem very PMy, I suggest adding more orange/lime green. Otherwise, good job, I love the windows! I agree with Glacarcheo, the color scheme seems a bit off but you could easily build it up with the standard PM colors. Seems to be a good size too...any reason for the hole in the middle?

Dark_Avenger Posted August 5, 2009 The groundwork you've laid lends itself to tons of possibilities - looking forward to seeing more! I never liked the LEGO version of the HQ at all, so I'm glad to see MOCs springing up. My one suggestion is with the castle wall pieces you used - the arched, open windows seem a little out of place for the theme. Power miners seem to use a lot of smoke-transparent glass for windows, much like what you have for the curved walls (which look great). I'll be watching the progress on this!

NewRight Posted August 5, 2009 Very cool so far. I can't wait to see where the rest of this goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doctordark Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) I just noticed the small orange slopes in the room but I think you need more green and orange also. Edited September 20, 2009 by doctordark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky Posted September 20, 2009 (edited) Are you still working on this? Would be nice to see an update. Anyway, I had an idea. Maybe you should integrate some things that go along with the new lava theme. For example a large water tank where they keep the water for the water guns. Or a room where they keep their heat-proof armor etc. Also, I agree with doctordark: The whole thing needs more green and orange/blue to better fit into the color scheme of the theme.

Well construction has came to a hault, ive had school work pile up and a few more design ideas. I will be making a big brickling order soon of lime green and trans black windows to get a better Power miner feel. I will also try to incorperate the new lava miner theam into it as well with a large water tank. But as for now it has returned to the brainstorming phase.
