Lego Junkie Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Firstly, if there's an award for bending the rules to the breaking point, then bending them a bit more. I'd totally be taking that one home. That being said... Yes, this entry does fit in a 48x48 square, with no upper limit. The Boundless. by Lego Junkie., on Flickr Yes yes, I know I'm being "That guy", but this contest really pushed be outside my comfort limits and I'm really only in this contest to see the other awesome entries and have fun! Now, enjoy the pictures and the backstory! And feel free to leave a comment telling me what a rule bender I am! ;D The Boundless. by Lego Junkie., on Flickr Pirates. The worst scum of the galaxy. From raiding to smuggling, this vile scum has plagued the outer rim of the Knavelion system for decades. The most fearsome of the pirates clans is lead by Junk E Rasmoid, a terrible fellow who will stop at nothing to get his hands on the best cargo entering his galaxy. The captain overstepped his bounds when capturing a PETA vessel bound for the Salouth starfield. With his furry cargo in the hold, the massive freighter ventured into the blackness of space in search of more prey. The ship encountered a field of gamma radiation that went undetected by the ship's Geiger counter. All seemed well within the mighty freighter, untill the animals struck... The Boundless. by Lego Junkie., on Flickr According to Soren Roberts, one does not become a man until he's built a SHIP. Looks like I graduated from the boys club. This rather large ship clocks in just over the official SHIP mark at 106 Studs long, 34 studs wide, and 32 studs tall. Building it was quite the experience, I must say. I'd say I've got about twenty hours into the build over the course of five days. It's got a fully detailed interior, and lots of cute animals doing devious things. Now I need to go build a stand for it! : D If you're interested in seeing the interior shots, go check out the set for more detailed pictures. Edited January 19, 2013 by Lego Junkie Quote
jimmynick Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Beautiful shape, and the cargo containers give it some great colour. Great SHIP, Lego Junkie, and good luck in the contest. Quote
Jargo Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 The front end resembles an animal head too. Sort of a crocohippo.... Quote
Si-MOCs Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 First off, welcome to manhood! Secondly ... really? at least build a stand But I will say the crew is pretty cute Quote
DraikNova Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Very skilled reinterpretation of the rules. Anyway, it´s a lovely SHIP! Quote
Wedge09 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Awesome :thumbup: I love how you made the shape ith the container and central ax Nice story and interior Quote
jedi1984 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 This MOC has rewritten the meaning of "bending the rules"! It's really entertaining ah ah! Anyway... I was looking at it with more calm... Man, this work is amazing! I love the coloured containers and the shape of the whole thing, too! Quote
