Can we have uglies that feature a non starfighter. E.g. the uglies that use walker turrets as cockpits with tie wings? 

Well, it needs to be space-worthy. I don't imagine an AT-ST cockpit is air-tight. I can't speak for the other judges, but I wouldn't disqualify it. I just wouldn't score it as high as I wouldn't see it as functional.

@MKJoshA @marvelBoy123 Using the Poe Dameron comic as a reference I recon a ATST cockpit could be modified to space... I imagine the empire would use walkers on planets and moons with no atmosphere... I'd say go for it as long as the ugly is true to the rule of being a star fighter... :thumbup:

Ok, I make a more normal one to be on the safe side. I just saw them on a poe dameron comic when I was searching for uglies!

If you have canon proof who are we to argue with you! I read the books, but have never gotten in to the comics. So I apologize for my lack of SW knowledge in this area! I look forward to your walker/fighter ugly!

Sorry, I've messed up with the build submittal, my latest build on Deysum is actually a 2x challenge as I had the opportunity to add an ugly, however I originally filled it out as a free build. It is intended to be, and fits the criteria of the challenge so could you please ignore my mistake when it comes to scoring. Sorry!  :cry_sad:

Going forward, I think we’re going to need the limited challenge builds to be more incorporated. It defeats the purpose if they’re thrown into an unrelated build or not even in the main build of the post.

Sorry for that, hope that you can see from the new photo that it can be integrated. I don't mind if you still don't think that it counts for the 2x challenge, I'm happy for it to be a free build if you think that is more fitting - I will leave the decision up to the judges. I think that it depends on the challenge - it is a lot easier to incorporate figures than say starfighters, that is probably something to think about.

I am always impressed by these Wing type spaceship, It always had a strange attraction that I couldn't resist

To clarify, 

There isn't a special challenge tick box so I went with Other and typed Special Challenge.

Correct?
