Masked Builder Posted August 4, 2011 Receiving Mission 9.3 Log..... Log Received. Begin Mission Log: We made it outside the ship and a fierce fight ensued. Droids were coming from everywhere. We should have had another trooper. It's too bad we didn't have one. Maybe I'll try to get another..... My men didn't make it out of this in one piece. It'll be good fro them to get their rest. I'll be happy once this mission is over. I hate the cold. End Mission Log Transmission Ended Beacon off. Beacon on. This was a very fun build. I started with the light function and just went from there. You have no idea how much cooler this is in person. Showing the beacon's light function. A fairly simple working idea. Just a rod that goes through the base and presses on the light brick. And trust me, this looks a lot better in person. Since I can't embedded the video. Here's a link of the working light function.

Big Cam Posted August 4, 2011 The second I saw this it immediately reminds me of crack down 2. They have beacons that you have to protect until they power up, and this scene is spot on to that. Was the game any inspiration? I really like how you did the beacon, the right amount of trans red studs and just enough light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brickdoctor Posted August 4, 2011 Great work incorporating the light brick, Masked! Your posing is also great as always. Though I must ask, what is that large grey...thing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jedi master Brick Posted August 4, 2011 (edited) Great Moc, you can always depict an action seen but only use one droid. Love the generator Edit-spelling Edited August 4, 2011 by Jedi master Brick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masked Builder Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks everyone! Was the game any inspiration? I really like how you did the beacon, the right amount of trans red studs and just enough light. Actually no. I'd never even heard of it before now. Thanks! Great work incorporating the light brick, Masked! Your posing is also great as always. Though I must ask, what is that large grey...thing? part of one of these. I like the gangsta' droid. Gangsta' droid? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted August 5, 2011 part of one of these. Ah. I must admit, even knowing what it is, I can't tell what it is just by looking at it, though seeing as it's just part of the backdrop for the action in the vig, that's okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wokajablocka Posted August 5, 2011 Yet again another nice little build. What is the rubber band doing holding the clones arm on? Nice use of the light brick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted August 5, 2011 Ah. I must admit, even knowing what it is, I can't tell what it is just by looking at it, though seeing as it's just part of the backdrop for the action in the vig, that's okay. It's not supposed to be a specific bit, just a chunk that fell off the ship as it crashed. What is the rubber band doing holding the clones arm on? Thanks! That's his cast. He was wounded in my first vig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
George G. Posted August 5, 2011 I misread the title as "Defend the BACON" and spent the whole time confused about where the bacon was. Silly me Good MOC you got here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted August 5, 2011 I misread the title as "Defend the BACON" and spent the whole time confused about where the bacon was. Silly me See the grey wheel? It's full of freshly cut bacon. All red and bloody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
