Looks great.

That's one massive great-looking entry you got there Josh. I assume this is Star Wars-related right? What's the story behind this one? We'd love to know more (and see more detailed shots).

Why i feel my self so small suddenly? Thats HUGE entry, but be extra careful now.. if that breaks you have a big job to do it again or clean the mess. Great job mate, my jaw is on the ground

What a great looking entry Josh!  It looks really detailed in the on pic you posted.  But like KielDaMan wrote, closer more detailed pics and more of a background story would be much appreciated.  Hope you do well in the contest!

Thanks a lot guys for the awesome comments :)
Like I said I will get a load of new pics up on Monday of the whole thing + the interior ;) (GF: operations/prison cells,1F: armoury,2F: gundeck,3F: control tower/medbay)
You can also take the gun off the top and pull the elevator that is inside up and down between all the floors :) And lots of things open up and reveal things for playability etc. Again! I will show you all that on Monday when I have some more time!

Thanks mate :)
No story really! The color was the the big thing when deciding what I could build for my entry. I decided to make something using the colors I had the most of...it was either make a Star Wars one or a Castle/Pirates setup! Maybe will do something like that next year.
In terms of the conditions of entry! You could build whatever you wanted I think. I am really looking forward to seeing what the other AFOL have come up with :)


Edit : If you mean by story... What is the base meant to be? I am calling it a Clone Trooper Special Op's outpost :)

Well Josh I for one am glad you made a Star Wars entry for the contest.  & thanks for adding more pics.  I can't wait to see some interior & playability pics when posted!  Like I said before good luck in the contest I hope you do well!

[KielDaMan]

Great to see the additional photos, now we could all marvel at the amazing details of this massice MOC. I really hope you do well in the contest, considering all the hardwork you've put in this creation. Best of luck!

[heofthehothbrick]

Amazing scene. A lot of detail and a lot of little MOCs within the MOC, which makes it all the better. I can't wait to see more of the two exo-force-style walkers you've built. Best of luck in the competition.

Thanks for looking!

Is there any reason why I am not gettting much critique here? Something wrong with the pics? I was really hoping for a bit more of peoples opinions on it, GOOD or BAD!
This is the first really big thing I have made out of LEGO for ages...I think the last MOC was the Brothel for the CCB a while back so it was good to get the bricks out again.
Anyway if you think it is CRAP please let me know and what you think could be changed etc.
Talk to me peoples

[Brickdoctor]

Looks good, Josh! I'd really love to know the in-universe backstory behind this- what planet it's on, why it was built, why it has a bunch of non-canon 'prototypes'....
I'd assume it's like a prototype testing center?

[brickfoot]

The turbolasers are freaking awesome.
