never mind i must have been logged out at the time, a little flakey but it seems to have worked -
Helping Finding Where These Figures Are From
Daiman replied to MKJoshA's topic in The Alternative Brick Forum
placed an order at JB and used paypal but rather than going through the payment process it went to my order page where the payment status is 'pending' any clues as to how I proceed? -
@Feuer ZugOh this is much better, I love the details you included, maybe creep some craggly grass in and get a couple of those oil spill tiles to finish it off

Help needed with sloped side walls for a LEGO funicular railway
Daiman replied to Zimmi78's topic in LEGO Train Tech
fiddled around and came up with this, based on the door side may be smaller scale but i think you could forgivably consider the windows are all the same size to make it easier to get the shape. -
Great way to end an enjoyable series of builds, cant wait for the group shot.

[MOC] Power Miners; Deep-Core Heavy Mining Rig
Daiman replied to LegoMathijs's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
I love me a good power Miners build, though we dont see a lot of people building MOCs based on the theme it was one that grabbed a lot of attention when it came out. All this needs is a little rock monster hidden in there somewhere... -
@Murdoch17 Well yes I like this very much...how would it go with the red 'waterline' up one brick to go between the two black layers?

in house designers i have to assume as they became sets and lines. I am mainly talking conceptual but an actual design in one case, however not to delve into that this thread is getting broad enough. Just saying it happens from both sides.
-
I went through a period where ther lego designers were obviously ripping off my very own concepts (not designs) and that was the start of my backing off loyalty, that said I have also had clone builders rip off my actual design so.... guess I'm all even in their game.

First laugh i had in this forum...well done Sir.

If to all be in one place then as I suggested before we could repurpose the [MOC] that we use in a title to [MOC] or [SET] or even make that a field that needs to be completed on creating a topic

This really seams like the only sensible starting point, it allows opening up the discussions about other brands without putting the hens in with the rooster. When discussing MOCS links can be shared between sections if needed to facilitate cross conversational ideas however I dont see that being widely used. It's just that we 'can' and also it will lift the bans on certain words and phrases across the board which will be the actual integration of the concept. For example if I design a lego plane and somewhere in the conversation someone mentions (and links to) a particular cockpit not available by TLG that may better suit then that can be done however people understand that my original post is based on the lego pallette of bricks and should they want to , be able to build said plane using their available parts at home. I know its all muddier than that but in embryo ...

Well my brain is not big enough to comprehend the complexity of any of the choices but my two cents worth would be a separation between talking about 'sets' and 'mocs' where brands have there own subs in the 'sets' section. People adapt the [MOC] marker that we use, or we make that a field so its compulsory, where [MOC] becomes the [BRAND] when talking about sets I'd hate to see a solution that means each brand has a sci fi or train section as it doesnt matter what bricks are used in the build which also then becomes a part of the discussion Most of my builds have been made with third part parts simply so I can afford it however I stick to the bricklink studio pallette with very few exeptions in colour for my personal builds.

This is not a bad thing in my eyes as TLG moves furter into the swill of merch and oversaturated production volumes, We all enjoy chatting about up and coming sets but mostly we are here to show and chat about our own builds in the old 'non collectable' version of the product produced. As I see by the poll the staff are poised to venture down new paths and I support that movement entirely.
