Andrew JN Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) Location: Jurin II, Sector E02 Tags: E02, MANTIS, Piracy Log_M_3: After M.A.N.T.I.S. received reports of Octan intel gathering Biomass from the stomachs of the great Vlorms in the forests of Jurin II, I have been sent out to pick up the packages they have very kindly (and unknowingly) prepared for us. The exact location of where I have been sent happens to be the great mushroom forests of Sector E02.... End_Log AG: Battle of Jurin II by Andrew JN, on Flickr Mission has been a success. Will rendezvous to ::::::::::: Log_M_3_1: Mission success! I hope Big Sal will find this biomass useful, because I am not one of those sciency types, so I don't see the point of gathering this icky stuff... Anyway, that's all for today's work. End_Log ---------------------------------- Well that was a fun build! I really like how the giant mushrooms turned out! And the mechs of course! Originally, I was going to have the Vlorm be alive, but as I was creating it, I decided I would rather have it dead... since it was (and still is!) pretty creepy...... Anyway, bonus pics! Also, the mechs! Edited July 6, 2015 by Andrew JN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpacerSteve Posted June 28, 2015 Wow that is an epic build. My favorite part is the tire worm and the giant shrooms. It makes the minifigs look very small. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackhawk STX Posted June 29, 2015 Really impressive. Great work on the 'shrooms. I always liked mecha. Those suits came out nice! Good job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Gidman Posted June 29, 2015 Terrific landscape! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NuckElBerg Posted June 29, 2015 Really great build. I love the "mushroomy" environment and the mechs, but most of all the Vlorm! It kinda reminds me of the Ohm from Nausicaä! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niloc Posted June 29, 2015 Another huge fantastic build! The spinner-mushrooms are really clever, as are the big ones... Great and busy landscape, worthy of an epic battle. That mushroom forest will be hard to top in the mushroom category! That MANTIS battlesuit has style I could go on... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disco86 Posted June 29, 2015 Freaky stuff, really like those shrooms ! Giving it a psychedelic look :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zaael Posted June 29, 2015 This is just stunning. Everything is awesome! The mechs, the big alien creature and those mushrooms remind me of Zangarmarsh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted June 29, 2015 Excellent build! The landscape is really neat and both those mechs look great! - especially the Octan one, of course... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aeralure Posted June 29, 2015 Great mushrooms! Reminds me a bit of Felucia from the Clone Wars. Love the color and the scale. That worm is great too, but then there are mecha in there as well! I'm glad you isolated each one as their details are a little hard to make out in the build along with the other elements. Pretty epic build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kodan Black Posted June 29, 2015 It is like World of Warcraft meets Starcraft! Cool build with a totally creepy alien. Those are some nice battlesuits! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David FNJ Posted June 29, 2015 Yuck yuck yuck, so creepy and realistic! Boss landscaping, and those mushrooms (big and small) are fantastic! Epic mechs too, and I like how you mixed bionicle/HF pieces with system pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark of Falworth Posted June 29, 2015 Sweet battlemechs! Great landscaping too! Keep it up Ace! :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Sal Posted June 29, 2015 Oh man, incredible stuff again - I don't know how you do it! The Vlorm is awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodiziorobs Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) That creature is fantastic, and suitably creepy Then of course, the mushrooms, the mechs, and the whole composition of it all really fits perfectly together. I don't know how you do it! Edited June 30, 2015 by rodiziorobs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccoyed Posted June 30, 2015 Tire worms! FTW! I really like those mushrooms. I wish I could think up neat alien flora and fauna as easily as some of the others do. I need to trawl deviantart more for inspiration! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LittleJohn Posted June 30, 2015 Stunning build, Andrew! The base looks fantastic and I love the mechs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrcp6d Posted July 3, 2015 Great stuff all around here! The worm is suitably creepy with those tentacles and the big mushrooms are sweet. The straightness of the mushroom stalks is a bit odd though, I wish there was some curvature or angle to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
