soccerkid6 Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) This build is for the Interstellar Outpost contest on Flickr. The idea is to build a one-man starfighter, landing pad, ground support vehicle, and comm station that together form a space outpost. I don't build sci-fi a lot, so this was a good challenge. After so many Castle builds, using lots of bright colors was really fun. The starfighter's wings rotate with a twist of the knob on top, to switch between flight and hover/landing mode; it also has a functional landing gear. The tanker truck has working steering (also operated by the knob on top) and 'suspension'. The comm station has a full interior and the landing pad doubles as a storage area. And just for fun, a picture with the colors inverted: See more pictures here: http://www.brickbuilt.org/?p=324 C&C welcome Edited January 12, 2016 by soccerkid6 Quote
Zerobricks Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) What an awesome landscape! I dont think many people though of using pink/violet for an alien alndscape but looking now its just perfect! Nice outpust with vehicles and mecha. Does the mecha have such large fingers? NVM its a shuttle not mecha, my bad. Edited November 1, 2014 by Zblj Quote
Spirit Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 That's an awesome "little" outpost! Do you plan to make more on the same theme? Quote
Lady K Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I like it! Nice color choices. Cool vehicle. The inverted color shot is neat, thanks for including it. Quote

NVM its a shuttle not mecha, my bad. Thanks! I've been wanting to use the lavendar and pink, I figured an alien landscape would work well with them The ground is very eye-catching! Thank you That's an awesome "little" outpost! Do you plan to make more on the same theme? Thanks, I probably won't be doing more in this theme anytime soon. But I may do more eventually I like it!
