Boba1980 Posted August 15, 2016 Posted August 15, 2016 The first MOC I want to present on Eurobricks was an entry for the MOC Olympics contest on www.imperiumdersteine.de (German LUG). The task for the second Round was to build a ship or an iconic scene of the Empire or the First Order. A base of 32 x 32 was the limit. As you can see I decided to build an iconic scene of the Empire. My MOC shows the meeting, which all the high members of the Imperial Military attended and where they debated whether to use the death star immediately or not. The meeting also resulted in Darth Vader briefly strangling Motti with the Force after the latter insubordinately retorted Vader's warning that the abilities of the Death Star were miniscule compared to the Force. I hope you like it. Bye for now Boba ****** my flickr Quote
Raskolnikov Posted August 15, 2016 Posted August 15, 2016 I particularly like your version of the table -- those bricks are gleaming. Do you have any pics showing more clearly how it's made? Quote
ISDAvenger Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I particularly like your version of the table -- those bricks are gleaming. Do you have any pics showing more clearly how it's made? Same here, love the table and chairs. I also love the walls. Great job and well done! Quote
Littleworlds Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I have seen this one on a couple of sites before and they did right to feature it: It looks very cool and captures a very memorable scene and the cold, factual mood of the set perfectly! Quote
strider117 Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Wonderful moc. Very clean. I have to agree with Raskolnikov and ISDAvenger that the table is awesome, but my favorite part is definitely the iconic death star hallway "wallpaper," (the white stripes on black). Quote

Of course, here are two pictures of the table and how it is build. It is not a perfect circle, but it works for me.

dimnico Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I love the expressions on all the mini fig faces, perfectly captures the moment from the film. I particularly like the two moody looking death star troopers. Great display piece. Quote
Juke Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Very good! One of my favorite quotes from the series Quote

Boromir Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 That's so cool! One of my favourite scenes of episode IV, and very well recreated. Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Gorgeous work! Everything in it looks fantastic. I especially like the way you did the imperial lights! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
Robianco Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 It's one of those scenes that will probably never get any kind of official release (I'm not counting the room on the DS) due to the fact it's just a meeting that has a heated argument but it's just such an iconic moment. The room looks great on this MOC... I really like how people handle the detailing of those imperial rooms that would be quite boring but the detailing and coving is excellent. I'll never tire of people recreating the lighting effects in plates with the white and black sections. Quote
nikhkin Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 That's awesome. Interesting use of lever pieces on the walls. I always find it intriguing how people recreate the wall panelling of Star Wars ships/stations. Quote
mortesv Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Very nice! I have done something similar, but smaller with the 10188 conference room :) Quote
Boba1980 Posted August 19, 2016 Author Posted August 19, 2016 Thanks to all of you for the nice comments. I especially like the way you did the imperial lights! this was the easiest part of the MOC It's one of those scenes that will probably never get any kind of official release (I'm not counting the room on the DS) due to the fact it's just a meeting that has a heated argument but it's just such an iconic moment. The room looks great on this MOC... I really like how people handle the detailing of those imperial rooms that would be quite boring but the detailing and coving is excellent. I'll never tire of people recreating the lighting effects in plates with the white and black sections. Yes, you are right. For me it is one of the most iconic moments for the empire. And that was the task for the comtetition, build an iconic scene of the empire. That's awesome. Interesting use of lever pieces on the walls. I always find it intriguing how people recreate the wall panelling of Star Wars ships/stations. The problem was, that the original walls in the film are extremely boring and I had not much space (4 studs for each element) because 32x32 was the maximum base in this contest. So I had to build a wall element that looks nearly similar to the film but isn't too boring in lego. The lever pieces and the 1x2 Bricks (Modified 1 x 2 with Grill) were good choices to add some texture. If you like I can make a photo of how the wall elements are build. Bye for now. Boba Quote
