Thanks Slegengr! Appreciate your detailed thoughts. You're right about the wheels, I considered swapping to the orientation you suggested at one point, but ultimately left them as you see now. I think because it made them look more circular - though that might also have been before I added the third stud of width with alternating direction. There is indeed a working 'hydraulic' cylinder, not really stable enough for play but the rod does slide in and out of a friction pin to allow the arm to swing in or out. Thank you, I was pleasantly surprised to find an easy way to integrate it in this orientation. Thanks! The drill arm was one of the last things built, and needed some time and referencing real life excavators Thanks, I wanted to try some brick built wheels for a change and was happy with how these turned out. Glad to hear you like the opening cockpit! I was thinking about how would someone be able to get in, and this sort of opening hatch came to mind from spaceships. And after thinking of it, it seemed too fun not to include Many thanks!

An Ice Planet truck for Febrovery. The general chassis and shape came to mind quickly after I got the wheels together, but completing all the details took longer than expected. Has a few functional bits as the drill arm is articulated and the cabin opens in such a way that the driver could actually board the vehicle. More images available on Brickbuilt.

Thanks for pointing that out so quickly. I had been looking in the sub-forum as well, but somehow missed a whole bunch. Aurore kindly sent me a list which I edited in now, and will double check again tomorrow to see if any are still left out. -

Nordheim Lumberyard -
My contribution for Challenge 11. It’s a simple build that brought back a lot of memories as most of the techniques are things I used frequently years ago. Which made for a straightforward and relaxing build process. Timber is in high demand as the guilds rebuild. Leading to many new lumber yards popping up in Mitgardia. Located along trade routes and near sawmills they constantly receive new loads of wood and in turn load caravans traveling between the guilds. Additional photos on Brickbuilt.

New deadline is end of day February 1st 2024! Countdown timer here. Make the most of the extra time and get to building -
@LittleJohn and I built this peaceful Avalonian scene of a small chapel on the edge of a lake. It's an entry for the Religious Building of the Colossal Castle Contest. Evenings make a splendid time for Brother Alberic to enjoy some peaceful contemplation while fishing. The still waters and quiet forest never fail to lift his spirits.

@LittleJohn and I collaborated on this build for the “Place of Business” category in the Wandering Skies contest. It was a challenging model due to the numerous additions off all sides meaning you couldn't simply build from the bottom up. Was a nice change of pace trying a large steampunk model though! It's complete on all sides, and through some of the doorways you can catch glimpses of interiors, though we didn't have time to fully complete all of them. R.G. Buckle’s mining outpost travels far and wide in search of valuable ores and metals on the many floating islands of Wandering Skies. The rugged and functional mobile outpost contains storage silos, a massive smelting furnace, and docks for their scouting and mining airships. Once they have collected a large supply of metals, the crew navigates back to civilization to sell their goods. Additional images on Brickbuilt.
