    I always greatly enjoy your entries. The build itself is so detailed and elaborate, it's a joy to look at. The story is clever and compelling, and I think you've knocked it out of the park with your photography and editing this time, clearly profiting from the more casual ruleset concerning image editing. Overall, this is some fantastic work all around. I hope I can get back into building soon (I had to forsake this episode, unfortunately) and improve my skills – I would love to work on a collaboration or a story crossover with you some time.

    Looks awesome! Makes me wanna throw in the towel, though xD I've got the vague feeling that this will be, once again, an uphill battle for the Alliance. But on the other hand, that's what the whole Rebellion itself is, so... No WIPs from me, yet. I haven't started on the episode build yet, but done a lot of planning already. Will begin building next week.

    There's something very fantastic about this. The circular base design really makes all these scenes special and stand out. The actual builds themselves are great, too. Amazing idea and execution, keep it up!

    Ohh, a very neat build! I really like the lighting in the background, it sets the mood. I kinda wish for a few more images so I could get a better look at it!

    Okay, thanks for clarifying this. I don't even know if I will use this, but I thought better be safe than sorry and just ask in case.

    A very general question that just occured to me today: is it actually okay for an entry (freebuild and/or episode) to use both physical bricks and LDD? Like, have one part built with actual bricks and another part, like a ship that's meant to be in the background or something, be digital? Note that I am not talking about combining physical and digital builds into an illusion of one bigger, connected build via complex compositing or something like that, but clearly separated builds. Like show a starship in space from the outside with a digital build, and the next picture takes you inside the ship and features a physically built bridge. Would that work or would that be a problem in judgement?

    Very nice! I always enjoy your story segments, and the temple is small, yet neat and detailled. Great stuff.

    That's an interesting idea for the contest, I really like how each episode feels so unique. Just for clarification: The 100 studs refer to width/length, correct? Like, it's not the total surface or anything? It would be awfully hard to build a starfighter in less than 10x10. Hope I can come up with something! Still a slow time for me, Lego-wise, right now.. but the episode runs long enough, so that's no excuse, lol.

    Yeah, I think ST for the sequels is kinda universal by now. The Kylo Ren era is certainly a possibility, but a time jump like that would pretty much require everyone to set up new characters and stuff, I presume.

    Wow, almost too soon for my liking. I'm still pretty much in a kind of summer hole, Lego-wise... to be frank, I cleaned the Legos up and put them away when I had guests over in mid-June, and I didn't bother to dig them up again since, lol. But an episode isn't a must, so I think it would be fair game to sit one challenge out or build small rather than big for once. For some reason, after that Black Sun spectacle last time, I was kind of expecting something more low-key, story-wise, for the next episode before the big Endor finale. But as long as the ending of Jedi is not meant to be the ending of SoNE as well, I'm fine. Not to put anyone under pressure, but I kind of expect the SoNE narrative to continue into the future and tie in with the post-Endor events of Battlefront II that will release later this year. Whoopsy daisy! Will do.

    Perfection.

    @Shadows of Nar Eurbrikka I believe this freebuild has not been judged yet, has it?

    Thanks for the link, LL! Maybe I'll really grab one of those. I assume that for my liking, the clone personalities were too out of character with their obsession with Mandalorian culture, when nothing like that is present in any other incarnation of Star Wars media. To me, it always felt like a kind of self-inserting move how Traviss infused her presumed love for the Mandalorian into the characters she was writing. So much, in fact, that in the Legacy of the Force novel series, I started outright skipping the chapters she wrote about Boba Fett and his daughter, because I found them to be so bloated with this lofty Mando stuff I didn't really care for. But then again, I never understood the hype surrounding Boba Fett or everything Mandalorian in the first place. All of that, however, does not change the fact that I really appreciate that you snuck in details like that, it gives me that "Ah, I get that reference"-feeling as an old EU reader.

    Fantastic stuff. I agree that the shuttle is quite impressive, I am actually intruiged that you built it relatively completely. For a comic like this, I go the lazy route, I guess, and just build an interior scenery instead of a whole ship. Very cool, though, and despite the fact that I am less than fond of Karen Traviss' work, I see that you seemingly have taken a liking to her Mando'a talk. I appreciate details like that a lot. On a different note, where can I find an arm like 2B's right arm? I desperately needed something like it recently when I built a Lego Samus and I ended up cutting pieces and gluing them to a standard minifig arm, but would still like a more robust solution.

    That's why we want it Also, it is a great place to incorporate Prequel Trilogy content, due to it using Clone Wars-era equipment. If liberating Wobani from the Empire's grip is as easy as freeing Jyn Erso from her transport, you don't deserve the planet anyway.
  16. Cody Startale
    As there were no objections to it in the comm channel, the Rebellion would like to claim the planet of Wobani, please.
  17. Cody Startale
    Brilliant. It's always great to read through your entries, your writing style and the pictures you show just go perfectly with each other. I enjoyed it, and it looks very Star Wars-y. I think you nailed that feeling of a busy street in the GFFA. Waiting for more!
  18. Cody Startale
    Yularen, please.
  19. Cody Startale
    Vader. Does that mean that Watto won a previous round? Preposterous.
  20. Cody Startale
    Just saw this, great stuff, Josh! It's cool to see that we are using the swgalaxymap for this, it's a very complete project as far as I see. Maybe I can add to another planet bios sooner or later, we'll see!
  21. Cody Startale
    Palpatine it is.
  22. Cody Startale
    A great build, but even more impressive, a fantastic read. The writing was spot-on and engaging, and I found myself instantly hooked and interested in the characters. Very life-like. Hope to see more of that in the future!
  23. Cody Startale
    Luke Skywalker.
  24. Cody Startale
    Awesome, I've been waiting for this chapter! This to see how the rescue is going, even though we're already spoiled that they will succeed eventually Amazing looking prison, too, instantly recognizable as one.
  25. Cody Startale
    Well, Boba Fett. No fan of the character, but the minifig has such a complete print the others are no match for it.
