What an excellent build. It's fantastic to look at, there is so much little details. I love the bubble bath and the fig posing, the guy taking in a big breath in the back is hilarious. A thing of beauty and I don't (just) say that because of the great amount of nudity!

Guilds of Historica New Member Guide
Cody Startale replied to SkaForHire's topic in Guilds of Historica
I have a question. The rules state that no clone brands are allowed in GoH, but brickarms and stuff are alright. So considering my sigfig, I am curious whether or not a customized minifig is permitted? Like, with custom decals applied? I'd try to keep it to a minimum, but would probably like to create a custom faces for the sake of varied expressions. If that's okay, I would start to create some designs next week. -
Very great opening! I like it and I think the mysterious feeling is definitely on purpose? Looking forward to see how this unfolds Great work with the full moon behind the tree, I was just thinking of a similar solution with some LED lighting the other day, but your implementaton is definitely superior to what I thought of. I really like what I am seeing so far; I think what's especially great is that you give the impression of greater scale and content with just very limited fews and angles. I suspect that there are a number of solid builds already waiting to be shown entirely, as can be guessed because of image 4, 5 and 6, but so far, it looks like each of your shots could have been created with a relatively small number of bricks. As I have a limited library, I really like that approach; I love it when builds convey the sense of greater scale than is actually physically there, as it means getting the most out of a limited set of bricks. Can't wait for more! Also, very inspirational all around. I cannot wait to get back into more cinematic building myself

Book III - Mitgardia: Guild sign-up and Discussion
Cody Startale replied to soccerkid6's topic in Guilds of Historica
Hello everyone. I have taken time off the forums for a good year or so, when my time with Nar Eurbrikka ended, sadly, without conclusion so far. But I think I will try to get back into Eurobricks in the coming weeks, as my interest in building has renewed and I finally want to give GoH a shot. Expect me to join Mitgardia at some point in the future, I am already preparing a character with a nifty story. See you around, folks, and it's good to be back. -
Hello micaz! Your post caught my eye. I haven't done any decal work for about a year now, but back when I did, I also did some SW admiral decals you might wanna check out here: http://www.startale.at/decals/ If you have any specific request, you can let me know, maybe I can get into doing some work that way.

Episode XVII: The Battle For Endor
Cody Startale replied to MKJoshA's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Fantastic stuff! Too bad I had to sit out the past couple of months due to personal reasons, but it was a great episode nonetheless! Keep up the fantstic work, everyone – and I am very glad that the Rebels emerged victorious this time! -

[Ep. XVII] [Rebels] [Week 9] need a better plan
Cody Startale replied to Jody Meyer's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Haha, that's great! I like it! It's cool to see someone else give the comic style a shot, I love to see more people do this, haha I like your clever portrayal of the shield undergroud, it was a good solution to place the shield in a narrow space so that you could sell it with building just a simple wall, cool idea! -
[Ep. XVII] [Empire] [Week 8] Edge of the Lake
Cody Startale replied to Gubi0222's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Wow, that's a stunning build! I love it!! Very well done natural terrain and a great base and fantastic water color distribution! I think it's a little past the deadline and also not on my team, but I would like the judges to still let this pass, since it would be shame to have such a great build be disqualified. Obviously, a lot of time and work was put into it, after all! -
[Ep. XVII] [Rebels] [Week 8] Back to the roots...not just yet
Cody Startale replied to elementary's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Very well done! I too like the different layers of sand and terrain, good job with those. I also like the irregular base you built for this, that's something that my builds mostly lack and I have little to no experience with it, so I adore this. Also it seems like we are using the same solution for the backgrounds, haha. I use sheets of paper put together as well. Nice entry and I think you got the most out of the available foliage! -
[Ep. XVII] [Empire] [Week 8] Down by the Lake
Cody Startale replied to LucasLaughing's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
I love this. Apart from being built fantastically, I love the overall idea and the story you are telling. It's both exciting and hilarious at the same time. The camera angles and shots are superb. Also, in the same vein as this entry, an obligatory shoutout to this: -
[Ep. XVII] [Rebels] [Week 8] A Light In The Dark
Cody Startale replied to Cody Startale's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Thank you very much! I too am glad with how the lighting turned out. As you recognized correctly, I used a separate light source, in this case something as simple as a maglite flashlight with two trans-orange Lego domes just taped over it to give off the right color. It's a rough setup, but for something as simple as a torch, it works very well and the only digital touchup I did was for the torch to glow a little. The rest of the scene was deliberately dark to create the impression of (moonlit however) nighttime, with only the white background being lit directly. I considered digitally replacing them with imagines of nighttime Endor, but apart from the obvious amount of work and time this would have required, I kind of liked the contrast being created between the dark foregrounds and bright backgrounds. Thank you again for the kind words, they are greatly appreciated! -

In the night before the fateful Battle of Endor, in the woods surrounding a certain Ewok village on the Sanctuary Moon of Endor... *crack* Luke Skywalker: Huh? Luke Skywalker: Hmm. *smile* ???: Going somewhere? Alia: ?! Cody: What are you doing? Shouldn't you be with the troops and prepare for tomorrow's battle? Alia: I overheard that guy talking to the princess! He's going after Vader! Alia: And so am I! Cody: What's gotten into you? That is suicide! What is it with you and that Darth Vader, anyway? Alia: That's none of your business! Cody: I'm... I'm afraid it is. *click* Alia: Are you for real, rookie? You are threatening me into staying? Do you really want to do this? Cody: If it means to stop you and save your life... then yes. I do. I'm not letting you go like this. Not without an explanation. Alia: ... fine. I'll tell you. To be concluded! Behind the scenes: C&C appreciated! -
[SoNE Ep 17] Traversing the Forest
Cody Startale replied to Commander Beltar's topic in Nar Eurbrikka Archive
Great stuff as always, very well written! It's always a joy to read through Beltar's missions. Well built too, I like that you used barrells for trees, that's very resourceful. Shoulda thought of that!
