Stardusty Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Yes, another entry that presents underwater version of set 30070. First one was made by ceroknight, and you can check it out here. Also, this was made for EB Underwater Version Contest that's part of the Underwater Action Themes Month. Now, onto my entry. Here's how the real set looks like: (picture is a link) My little MOC is named: "Is it a fiiiiiiiiiish?" Is it a fiiiiiiiiiish? by hrcywindu, on Flickr Is it a fiiiiiiiiiish? by hrcywindu, on Flickr Neat little backstory: Once upon a time, in a galaxy far far away... On a little planet called Pizza Planet live LGMs, also called aliens. Once they technology was developed, those little fellows decided to explore the universe. They've sent few little ships to find planets that would be suitable for a life. Their task is to find out as much as they can about the planet suitable for living, write a report, and come back. One of them, called LGM 14245 (try to guess where's the name coming from ), came to planet once known as Earth in year 2152, after many, many years of traveling. The whole planet was a huge blue ball. All the icebergs have melt, and sea levels have rissen. It was the doom for all it's natives. Creatures that were able to live under water survived, but LGM didn't care about them. LGMs don't need food, air, nor anything else humans need. So, he parked his ship near "vents", since that's the place that should be easy to find. After weeks of exploration, he came back to his ship, and fin it a bit dirty. But that's no problem for our hard-working friend, he'll clean it. BUT, what's the thing under his ship? "Is it a fiiiiiiiiiish?" My thoughts. I had no idea what to build until today. On my history class, we learned about ancient history, so I've decided to think about what to build. I remembered a small set I bought in March: 30070. So, I came home, and built my entry. I know there are some things that are not logical, but ignore them. All of them were made on purpose, since that's the way they looked the best to me. For example, LGM would float, and it makes no sense to leave thrusters working while under water. The ship would drive away! But, those are all the little details I ignored, to make this entry better in my eyes. I had a lot of fun building my entry. Thanks to Eerobricks staff for organising an hosting this contest! I hope you like my entry! Please comment and criticize. Edited October 7, 2011 by Stardusty Quote
Ceroknight Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Cool! At least your LGM isn't buried! Good luck! EDIT: I realize you linked mine! Thank you! I'll return the favour Edited October 7, 2011 by ceroknight Quote
Oky Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Hehe, cute. Nice to see that you still managed to enter. Your entry does look more substantial than ceroknight's. I like how you've incorporated a little story to go along with it, and I love the use of the lime green flippers. But you're right, it doesn't make sense for the thrusters to still be active, so I'd exchange the translucent studs for gray ones or just remove them all together. Other than that, nice work. Quote
Ninja Nin Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Well ... that's not a fiiiiiiiiiiiish, just the rubbish left by the dirty humans... possibly a Lizard costume !? Very well built, especially the bubble effect from the fish. Good luck ! Quote
Thor Lund Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Your story makes the build all the more interesting I bet the tail is a fellow LGM playing a prank on our jumpy friend! Nice one, Thor Quote

I included the link just in case a TS fan wants to see both entries. Thank you for returning the favour. Hehe, cute. Nice to see that you still managed to enter.

Well, I've tried it, and it doesn't look good. I don't know why does the tr neon orange on my pictures always looks so red. In reality, it looks very nice. Thank you! Well ... that's not a fiiiiiiiiiiiish, just the rubbish left by the dirty humans... possibly a Lizard costume !? Very well built, especially the bubble effect from the fish. Good luck ! It's intended to be living creature. Probably a mutated octopus or a sea snake. Placing it beneath the ship was very hard, but I guess everybody will see something different. That's the whole point of imagination. Thank you for commenting! Your story makes the build all the more interesting I bet the tail is a fellow LGM playing a prank on our jumpy friend! Nice one, Thor Like I've said, imagination is a very nice thing. Thanks! Although I need to say: 14245 is there alone (if you ignore sea creatures). Edited October 8, 2011 by Stardusty Quote
