Location: E01 Donwarr Tags: Land Vehicle, Space Vehicle Previously... // PERSONAL DIARY // Dr. Allison and I spent our time in one of the underground water research facilities this week, so we weren't able to do much in person investigation of the mystery ships. But we did do some data analysis and still weren't able to identify who they were. I would hope that they were just random drop ins that were scared off and that they won't be seen anymore... Extra Pics: So I wanted to make a kinda modern sci-fi recreation of the classic Lego style city cars turned into a spaceship, but I think it ended up looking like a boat. Sadly I ran out of time this week and couldn't make it better. Hopefully this week coming up is more productive.

Yes, challenge builds are outside the normal "flow" of the game. And you can post them together or separate. As long as they are posted by the deadline.

Thanks, part of what I like with AG is that being weekly if I try something and don't like how it turns out, there is always next week!

Pombe's facial expression is perfect for expressing that mix of pride and enjoyment over others being exposed to your pungent farts. The bird ship is awesome. I love the tail feathers and beak.

Location: E01 Donwarr Tags: Land Vehicle, Space Vehicle Previously... // PERSONAL DIARY // One of the great things about Octan is that they attempt to be more efficient. For instance we have giant mechs that we have ground penetrating radar and seismic analysis devices in order to more efficiently find things like water on Donwarr. We had established a water extraction site and shipped several mining and research vehicles out to it. We had even set up a monorail to aid the workers in moving about between the various sites. Aboard one of our light carriers, the OCS Artemas Ward, several of our heavy cargo ships were ferrying water from the planet's surface up to the various fleet ships. Most of the water would be consumed, but we also had some marked for scientific analysis. The Ward was very lightly armed, mostly it has enough firepower to scare off smaller pirates. It is used as an escort carrier for the fleet helping to move supplies around with her cargo vessels. Oddly this week we didn't deal with the mystery ships that had appeared the past 2 weeks. But that was probably because I was so busy at work. I bet that next week we see them make a return. Extra Pics: All the various smaller ships and vehicles I made:

Works out well I've been practicing at building micro stuff!

Has a great 80s vibe to it. Really different color style which helps it stand out. Love it!

Congrats on your TBB article!

I like the accurate galaxy map, I just wish the crossed lines were used to highlight something. Either one of the fleets or something, right now it seems to just be off center from the one planet. And yes, great logo as always.

Love the suit. Would have been cool if the doors really do close to have a shot of them either closed or opening and you sneaking in. The Octan gentleman with the fantastic mustache deserves a promotion for having such great facial hair.

Great crown and love the Barney joke!

Very cool engine nacelles. I like how more builders are making dropships that can haul land vehicles.

Love the rabbit throwing the eggs!

Nice cafeteria. AG has certainly helped me branch out also and do more microbuilds. I still struggle with them, but I do find it easier the more I do them.

Reactor online. Sensors online. All systems nominal. Love the build. I spent a lot of time playing both the paper and computer versions of BT. That mech is amazing, very clever parts usage throughout.

Location: E01 Donwarr Tags: Land Vehicle, Space Vehicle, Civil Building, Science Previously... // PERSONAL DIARY // Dr. Allison had managed to predict the mystery ship's path as Donwarr. Fortunately our Octan fleet was arriving there by coincidence! While we were in the system we decided to do some analysis of the local water supply. Dr. Allison went ahead with ED-208 to one of our water pumping stations and began her work. I was glad that we were all back together and it was re-assuring having ED-208 to keep an eye on Dr. Allison. Though she had gained some field experience she was still a bit of a rookie and I wanted to make sure she was safe. Once we had collected some samples I filled a few containers and loaded them into one of our work trucks to haul back to a shuttle. I wanted to send the samples up to the Axle both for storage but also further analysis. While Dr. Allison is a talented scientist and our water pumping station had the ability to do some preliminary scientific analysis we would be best served doing a proper analysis up on the full labs of the Axle. As I was driving to the shuttle one of our fleet commanders informed me that another mystery ship had been spotted. This one seemed less like a dropship and more offensive in nature. They suspected the large circular thing at the front was some form of weapon. And it also appeared to have significant electronic data gathering capability. We'd have to be careful and figure out who these mystery ships belonged to! Extra Pics: I wanted to do one bigger cohesive scene this week. Usually I would do this as 2 separate builds but I wanted to try and make it all one scene. Part of what I like about AG is it gives me a chance to work outside my usual build style and try new stuff!

Beautiful. Very clean lines and a nice full interior also. You've done a great job in your color usage also.

You have some really cool little humorous parts in there, especially the bit with the Flash! Very nice MOC and I really enjoyed taking a virtual tour of it.

Great fish! Love the look of the top of the tower part. Some excellent photography and you picked some great angles to get the right vibe out of them.

All my credits to Bob please.

Love the snail! The Dragonfly is amazing. Not only does it actually latch onto the Scarab, but it looks like a Dragonfly! Just fantastic build. I feel like I could stare at the Dragonfly for hours and find new things to like constantly.

Instantly knew which set this was based on. The Mantis logo is the best part, really clever build for it. Great re-purposing from Castle to Sci-fi.

Congrats to all. Was very difficult to only vote for 3!

Love the stained glass part of the chapel!

Really like the reactor room. I was amazed to see that the control room actually does look down into the reactor too! Great sci-fi build and interesting to see where this leads for Lu.
