And here is the updated one! I did more damage (well, really added it) to the street and textured the apartment building a bit more, and added a few more greebles. Under that 8x8 plate, there are some bley bars, but it's kind of hard to see. I definitely think it looks better now than the original. Without the speeders:

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll have an update this weekend! Hopefully they work now, or when I update it!

On the streets and skies of Areon 7A, racing speeders come face to face with the law. I don't build a ton of sci-fi MOCs, and I wanted to challenge myself to building two small speeder bikes for a change. When I was done, I figured they'd need a little street to swoop around, and this resulted in a club and cramped apartment complex. Sans speeders: The police vehicle: The speeding vehicle: Enjoy! Comments and criticism always welcome!

Thanks! My view is when possible, make builds "playable", you know, in case I ever want to play .

I've never seen the film either, but this MOC makes me want to. What a well done build. The plane looks fantastic at this scale and very swooshable.

We managed to take the tower with no casualties to us, writes Goetz. The soldiers were untrained, but the wizard with them was dangerous. Even so, he fell quickly. There was one runner that we had to chase down before he escaped and warned soldiers in the other towns or city. There wasn't time for us to dig graves, so Zaccaria, as our expert in all magical things related to fire, torched the bodies. Hopefully the smoke doesn't give our position away. Hopefully we can rest here for the next few days, we sorely need it, especially our wizard. Streak went to go get firewood. maybe we could just use the bodies. This is a continuation/expansion of a build series I have started here and here, and this is the earliest installment to date as it features Blade alive (who was dead in the first build). My biggest problem building this one was for some reason, I decided to build it with an add number of studs for length and width, something I've noticed a lot of my builds recently have been doing, and I think I should kick that habit soon, ha! This was built over the course of a few days. Comments and criticism always welcome! Enjoy!

Looks like this Yu-Gi-Oh challenge is the new Dungeons and Dragons-esque challenge. I'm curious to see how many people enter; I know I'll do at least one (maybe more if rules allow). I haven't thought about this IP in years.

This is what happens when I look at Wikipedia when I try to build Thank you! And yes, definitely a not fun situation for all around! Thanks! Where they are there is a slight alcove, but you're right, I probably could have made it more pronounced.

In 1184, King Henry VI of The Holy Roman Empire called a meeting in the city or Erfurt. There they met in a two story building, but unbeknownst to them, the floors were rotted and gave way. As people crashed to the ground floor, they fell through that as well and into a hidden cesspit. Henry VI and Archbishop Conrad survived by merely being in an alcove as the floor fell, and they had to await their rescue. It's estimated around sixty people died in this accident, some being crushed by the weight of the others, the floor, and even drowning in a pool of feces. "I wonder that that massive crash could be." This was a relatively quick design, that came together over the course of two or three days. I love medieval history, and this was just a weird piece of history that I was surprised had not been made into a MOC yet, or at least I haven't found another one yet. I started with building the base and keeping the center hollow so I knew where the cesspit would be, and then I built up. As this is a dark but also somewhat humorous piece of history, I wanted to have a little levity with the minifigures on the ground floor, such as the man opening the door to the building or how the minifigures that had fallen were reacting. I do want to flag that the chandelier is a slight recolor of ErtmanB's chandelier; I changed the flames to give the lighting effect in Studio and changed the flower on the base of the chandelier to gold. It was just too well done in Stud.io to try to figure out how to build it! Enjoy! Comments and criticism are always welcome!

Great work! I love the use of colors in this one.

"Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?" King Henry II of England was reported to say, leading to the assassination of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury. On December 29, 1170, four knights assassinated Becket inside the church. After his death, his legacy lived on in cults, paintings, stained glass, and even plays and films, with him being canonized a saint in 1173 and having his feast day on December 29. I wanted to make a small (ok maybe this is more medium) vignette for this one, and I had a fun time figbarfing for this. The new-ish Lion Knight torsos are perfect for English knights, and I used the CMF Mushroom Sprite torso for Becket. As the Canterbury Cathedral was Catholic at the time, I wanted to try to keep it in line with how it may have looked regarding the altar and railings where parishioners would go up for communion. I understand the actual cathedral is not designed like this, and Becket is reported to have grabbed onto a pillar as he was killed, but having the tabernacle, and altar felt important to include for this MOC. According to some pictures on Wikipedia I saw of the catherdral and where he was killed, it looked to have some hallways leading behind, so I felt it was appropriate to have those off to the sides of the altar, and it allowed me to have two clerics there as well. It's said that while most monks fled, one stayed behind to help the knights complete their grisly task. Enjoy! Comments & criticism always welcome!

Thanks! It's a fun settlement to build in and try to back in NOLA/Louisianan influences that are slightly anachronistic in the real world into this. And thanks for the suggestion on the cobblestone; I never know if I'm going far enough on those, so next build will definitely have more variety. -

Thank you! It took some experimentation to get what I wanted especially regarding furniture placement, but I quickly realized with the curtains in the way, and where the doors were, it would be hard to add more furniture. Ah that's why Sea Rats deals go in their favor!
