Captain Braunsfeld Posted February 9, 2018 ... to go boldly, where no monkey has gone before ... I have always loved those space baseplates. I wouldn't mind if they would be re-released - and I am happy that I got some that are acceptable through BrickLink. This is also on my flickr account.

Captain Dee Posted February 9, 2018 Ah, more monkey business... The rocket suit as a distant rocket is great and fits the baseplate well. And the stars in the background look nice. Is the monkeynaut on planet Simia, or somewhere else? Perhaps he's looking for precious minerals like bananerite? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you see my other stuff in the adventure forum? I will take up your idea on "bananarite". That should be fun. 50 minutes ago, Leonardo da Bricki said: Cool build, I like the forced perspective here! Thank you, sir! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes simple - especially the baseplate didn't take long But I wouldn't want to add anything more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That baseplate looked like the most difficult part of all to pull off! Seriously, its just right as it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Braunsfeld Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) Well actuality for old bricks I am using the stuff that old people need to clean their teeth. I am lacking the English term here. (Kukident or what they are called) => denture cleaners! Even yellowish white bricks become a bit whiter again.
