    As an example of how "private forces" can look: an overview of the WTC Forces. Those are Corrington in the end, so you see it does not have to be red/white/black all the time. There is lots of room for your own ideas, that is all I am trying to say.
  2. Darnok
    We would love to have you in Corrington! While Corringtons "official" colours are red, black and white, you are not bound to use them all the time (unless you want to do a soldier/officer/whatnot of the Crown). Red comes in different shades, and you can substitute different greys for white. As a civilian you are free to use whatever colours you like. A little bit of advertisement: I am one of the two players of the WTC, we are currently the most active trade organisation in the game. The WTC has military (and civil) forces of its own, and while they are kind of troublemakers, the WTC is (and always has been) loyal to the Crown. We might be the right choice for you, and if you have any questions I am happy to help.

    This is awesome, thanks for sharing! @Mesabi: Now plunder away explore for the Crown!

    If you have any questions, just send me a PM. We are a friendly bunch, but if you want to go for a more "piraty" approach, there is also the WTC - we have blackjack and hookers!

    In general this should not be an issue. In some challenges LDD builds might not be allowed, but challenges are not mandatory.

    As I understand it, he is a new character, otherwise he would have taken over Cathy. But I am not sure.

    Sorry to everybody for me dropping out. I became pretty sick last week (OOC), with one of the symptoms being a serious lack of concentration. I think the game deserves better, so decided to leave when somebody else could still jump in at (almost) the very beginning. I will still follow the game, and hope you have fun with it.

    The last entries are in. Apart from those already linked in this thread, I could also find the following. If there is any other entry I missed, please let me know! The two threads for voting will be up on Friday afternoon or early evening (CET), voting will be possible for two weeks.

    If I were you I would not get my hopes up. The SW Death Star is $500, and much smaller than this Hogwarts build. If Lego were to release something like that, it would cost a lot more (think UCS Falcon or more). It is an amazing MOC, no discussions about that.

    Thanks for the additional picture! I agree that it looks odd between multilevel modulars - but nobody is forcing you to do that. I can think of at least the following options: place it at the end of a street use it as a corner building build some modulars of differing sizes, and use it among those build a "parking lot" or similar area and place it there expand the MOC to be higher Personally, I think it is fine as it is, so would not go for #5. But it is of course your choice.

    I did notice, but can not comment before voting has been finished.

    Wow, a great build, and apparently very close to the historical example. Getting all those round shapes right, plus the roofs to match, must have been a serious challenge. Well done! I love the bits of humour added, and the nods to past Lego themes. Clever! Will this model be part of an exhibition, or be shown in the actual church? It would definitely deserve it.

    Another wonderful CMF series, awesome! All the minifigs are done nicely, but the background pieces on each are more than just the icing on the cake. Wonderfully written, they add so much! The smuggler is so cool, but my favourite has to be the king - just hilarious!

    Is there a general consensus on the timeframe for voting on minichallenges? I had two weeks in mind, but maybe that is too short? How have others handled this in the past?
  15. Darnok
    Beautiful build! The overall design is great, and the colours are indeed well balanced. I like the custom prints on the sails as well as the brickbuilt stern decoration. All thumbs up from me! My only issue here has nothing to do with the MOC itself, but the licensing: to me this looks like a class 6, and not even a big one. Compare this one to the "Alejandro da Vargas", the signature ship for class 6 the "Espada de Luna" looks a bit shorter to me, and definitely less massive. I just do not see this as a class 7 at all.
  16. Darnok
    What a great entry! The swamp/grassland looks very "alive" and works well with the tiled water. The story around the build is great too - you really love to abuse Calaghan, eh? Do you know where the the parts of the first flower ("Fig. A") come from? I have never seen them before. Oh no! Can you not make new pictures of at least the missing challenge entries in time?
  17. Darnok
    We will have two late entries (@SilentWolf and @Lord Buckethead), apart from these this mini-challenge is now closed. Expect the voting to begin by the end of the week.
  18. Darnok
    @Itaria No Shintaku: Thanks for running this, and thanks for the effort put into it. If you do something similar again: please make the voting pairs more "equal", as it was incredibly onesided in many rounds. You also eliminated quite a few favourites early on by design of the vote.
  19. Darnok
    I am sure we will see some spectacular MOCs based on the Sanctum Sanctorum, but right from the box it does not work as a Modular.
  20. Darnok
    See my post a bit above: it looks like that because it is taken from there.
  21. Darnok
    I heard a lot of baseless speculations. For a first day that is enough in my opinion. But sure, boast your aggressive ego. I cast the third vote in total, with only one other person at the time sharing my vote. How you can call that "gone along with what someone else decided" is beyond me. See above. There was no "tide mov[ing] in that direction". And I did not see you post anything but one fluff post. By your reasoning you should vote for yourself. Why not vote for the one person who publicly claimed to go with the bandwagon, eh?
  22. Darnok
    Could everybody please check if his/her MMM entry has been linked in this thread? Also: if somebody has a WIP entry and fears to not get it done in time, please send me a PM.
  23. Darnok
    I think I have heard enough for one day. Vote: Clifford Schauer (LegoMonorailFan)

    May I ask if there are any people with arachnophobia around here? In that case I would have to spoiler one of my Orchid Challenge entries.

    Men talking about "planting their wood" ... so typical! *rolleyes*
