PenPlays Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Here is my entry for the Micro Sci-fi Contest. This is my representation of the central base of operations of the Mars Mission. It is complete with a hangar, science lab, watchtower, defensive center, living quarters and an Energy Crystal Silo. Not to mention a Pump-Vac Power Plant. (Sorry for blurry pics in advance) An Overview A view of the caves underneath being cleared for supports. Here is a view of the Science Labs, Defense Center, and Power Plant at the center, and the Energy Crystal Silo (angular tower) on the right. Unbeknownst to the Astros, a small alien hive has begun to take root beneath the mighty fortress. More pics of the building and pictures of the mini-vehicles (all of official sets, by the way) here on my Brickshelf (once open to public). C&C is always welcome!

DraikNova Posted January 31, 2013 I think it's a stud too large, but anyway, those mini-bots look great, and from some angles, the buildings do too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PenPlays Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) The MOC fits precisely within a 16x16 baseplate. No overhang. Also I have fallen in love with mini- vehicles. I'm thinking about tackling Dino Attack as it is a vehicle heavy series. Edited January 31, 2013 by Penkid11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted January 31, 2013 Really neat micros, the base is excellent and the vehicles look great Nice touch with the alien hive as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4estFeller Posted January 31, 2013 I like all the different levels, ramps, rooms, and platforms on this model, makes it feel like a Micro Machines playset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Si-MOCs Posted February 1, 2013 hehe this is a great micro rendition! I really like how you added some height to the build with the ramp and the caverns. As 4est said, I have an urge to want to drive the buggies up and down the ramp My only suggestion is to use some tiling the top, at micro scale, those studs are a bit distracting.

PenPlays Posted February 1, 2013 Thank you all for the kind words. A link has been added to the first post leading to my Brickshelf. Once open you can enjoy the mini-vehicles by themselves, my favorite being the mini MT-201 Ultra Drill Walker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
