    Great use of .mil lingo, it enhances the scope of the operation immensely. I wonder if you could brick build some breaching tools for your guys :D

    First Moc: BMW 3 series

    Hi EB, I have a soft spot for 90something 4 stud wide city cars, and I did my best to make an 80s 3 series in that style. I still can't decide on which rims to use Thanks for looking

    First Moc: BMW 3 series

    Thanks for the feedback everyone, I did have some headaches with the front. Trying to use only a single grill on a jumper plate limited my options for the bumper(using a 1x3 plate behind the bottom of the grill to attach it), but I never thought of using a rubber band; thanks Criga.

    LEGO Star Wars 9492 Tie Fighter - Chewy's 1st Review!

    It was directed at Chewie, sorry for the confusion :) I would recommend Final Cut for getting into video editing. Programs like Adobe Premier and Avid are good for professionals but are much more expensive. Final cut will also have a similar interface as imovie, so that might be helpful. Final cut will give you a lot more freedom to pan across, zoom in/out, and movie the images on the screen. There are a lot of buttons, so look to youtube tutorials for help, much cheaper than classes :D If you are looking for something to help with comics, look into Gimp or other free photo editors. glad to help ;)

    LEGO Star Wars 9492 Tie Fighter - Chewy's 1st Review!

    4k is overkill , in my opinion, for youtube. Your upload times are going to be horrendous with that much resolution, and with most laptops falling between 13 and 17 inches I would say that there will not be an appreciable jump in quality on screens that small. I got an apple certification on Final Cut pro X (which some people hate) a few years ago after taking some courses in post production. Here's few things that will vastly improve your videos (others have said as well). - Bad sound is more distracting than bad quality video, if you want to do this for income I would suggest looking into a mic separate from the camera. - B-roll/ Cut aways/ more shots. One static shot is not very visually interesting. Look at what JangBricks and Brick Show do (don't copy outright :D). Doing an intro/outro as Chewie, and cutting to close ups/general shots of the set with voiceover is a successful formula. - Having multiple shots and angles allows you to properly edit your videos. A continuous shot usually only allows the dreaded "jump cut". With multiple shots you can trim out dead air or lines that just didn't come out right. -If you want to go all out, look into some very basic lighting. Look up "three point lighting", judging from your workspace you might only need a fill light and something to light up your backdrop. - I would switch away from the black backdrop. Black is hard to evenly light. Hope that helps. I do think the Chewie gimmick is funny, and you should stick with it. Good luck!

    Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here

    Having both, it's a difficult choice. 8097 has some better contours on the wing cowlings, but those colors are a crime. 6209 is has the right colors and a trans-black cockpit. Plus a more effective launcher (if you're into that sort of thing) but the overall appearance is slighty less contoured. I prefer 6209 overall. However, the correct choice is 7144 ;)

    Feedback on BrickArms Advanced Sterling Design Requested

    I prefer the first (scoped) version. The new version is kind of a middle ground that isnt a suitable E-11 or a realistic Sterling as it has barrel ribs that are not present on the real L2a3.
