[CONTEST] Benny's Spaceships Building Academy

[JJ Tong (zfogshooterz)]

I got one right around the corner! Just gotta get the renders done.

[pagicence]

I finished my renders last night, and I will post it today. It took me a really long time to finish it. You will see why.

Only a few days left...

 

...and not so many entries 

I, for one, wouldn't be upset if there was an extension ... maybe have the contest end on the 28th instead?

Since I now know that I won't be able to process the entries before the 23rd... I concur that adding a bit more time is ok.

End of the contest is now April 28th!

Woo-hoo - thanks Bob!!

I'm so glad the contest was extended. I've had a couple weeks from hell and had to quit my brand new job due to mistreatment by my bosses, and it got in the way of building anything.

I really hope I can finish my Cat. B today, but I'm not even close to being done...

Hang in there! I certainly am hoping to see one more challenger entering this contest!

I gave up an hour ago, sadly.  I went too big and ambitious to finish. I've been working for two days now and an all-nighter wouldn't suffice to finish both builds in time. I can share the WIPs tomorrow, for fun.

Maybe you could still finish your entry, even if it will be too late for the contest. I'm very interested to see what you built

When the deadline is reached, I'll compile the entries and post a voting thread with a list of all entries and explainations on how to vote.

Here are my WIPs. The 'normal' build will be a CSD (cutter suction dredger) and the bennyfied MOC would become sort of an asteroid grinding and processing ship. Will finish the CSD for sure, but I don't know what I'm going to do with the other one.

While I'm at it, here also my concepts for a Cat. A entry:

It was based on 70589: Rock Roader, from Ninjago. I modelled the mini buggy after the set itself. It would have been inserted in the back of the MOC, but I got stuck on that part.

Thanks for setting up and organizing this contest Bob De Quatre! This has been the most fun and creatively demanding Lego building challenge that I've participated in. I've been at a loss for what to build now since this was such a great concept. It inspired so many great builds, this is one to remember. #bennyfication

Wow, that does look quite ambitious there!

And looking forward to seeing the completed CSD!
