Please don't bump a topic unless you have some useful information to add.

One day we will probably do a non-vehicle contest again. That's close to "what TLG hasn't done" (for Technic).

How about, YES! Great idea. Coming right up How about, no more crawlers for a while

The video is meant to "prove" the functions are working properly. I don't care about the quality of the video. If it proves the MOC is working, it's fine be me. Of course, better pictures and better video (i.e. better presentation) might give you a slight advantage. But anyone with a modern smartphone can shoot decent pictures and make a decent video.

Sounds like a cool idea. I do have a problem with this setup though. It seems that more and more people are entering a contest with an existing (WIP) MOC. A contest like the one you describe, will open the doors for MOCs which have been in development for several months. Therefor a more limited contest seems to be the better choice. Some other issues: How do we check rigidity? Video is limited in proving it. Designing box art results in an unfair advantage for people with photoshop skills. While I do like the idea, I think it has some flaws. Future contests will be more limited, since "free build" and "big fat" contest generates a lot of debate in the "existing WIP MOC" section. If it's any consolation, the next contest I have in mind will be close to "design an official LEGO set".

I can't stop looking at animations like these. Very well done!

He got frontpaged?! Wow!

Here's a car you don't see every day. Eurobricks member brunojj1 proves he's not only a skilled Ferrari builder! Check out his fantastic BMW M4 DTM.

Actually, there will probably be a review online in the near future. Most likely written by another EB member. I will let you know, when I know more.

Yes! You can never join a contest again. Okay, since I still need some time to create the voting topic, I have opened the entry topic. Hurry up and embed the video. And maybe...maybe....you can still join future contests

O my...., this is something else! The yellow black color scheme works like a charm and you've captured the lines really well. No need to ask for HoF, this will surely be added!

Thanks Fabio for the video Since Ainnich does have a video I will close the entry topic and create the voting topic. I will change the rules for next contest to have an "Embedded Youtube Video". (if the video is mandatory for the contest)

The tutorials should be in the Index, but I must confess that there's not a lot of maintenance on tutorials. We try to limit the number of pinned topics. That's the reason the topics in the index don't get pinned too. I know it would be better to have some topics easily accessible, but the Index is the best we can do. If you get used to using the index, you'll notice that you don't need more pinned topics.

By the way; I have unlocked the entry topic, so can change your entry post.

You're welcome. I hope you mean a new post

" I will close the entry topic now, so please embed the video somewhere in your discussion topic. "

Topic locked! Waiting for two videos (#17 and #18).

Thanks for all the entries in the entry topic! I have moved through all entries. Sadly I had to disqualify two of them, but the builders know the reason and agreed to leave the contest. The last two entries (Liebherr LR11000 and Grove Trailer) are missing a video. I will close the entry topic now, so please embed the video somewhere in your discussion topic. And don't hesitate to ask help. I will wait till tomorrow with the voting topic, but no video means no entry. Sorry.

Done. Thanks for understanding.

You're welcome! Thanks!
