I had a choice, to enter this contest or Hinckley's neighbourhood contest. I figured I would enter this one because Hinckley has been a bit mean to captain green hair *n* . Only kidding :-P . I entered this one because I wanted to try building something I had never built before - nothing personal Here is my entry... I should really stress that this is my first pirate/ship MOC so please go easy on me X-D ... I present to you HMS Rapide: The back The Captain The Deckhands Figurehead The cabin - contains chair, table, two maps, key, goblet and a barel full of cutlasses. Captain and sailor posing The ship also has a removable deck with supplies beneath it. For more pictures - gallery (when public) This has been surprisingly fun to build and has opened my eyes to the whole pirate theme. Good luck to other contestants. -Benk

Ok I didnt really like my old sig fig - he was too intimidating 8-| so I present to you Benk (not scary man in a hardsuit) -Benk

OK just to clear things up, the anubis statues are definitely 100% in the film, in fact there are four of them - (trust me I am a huge indy fan) :-$ sorrry to be so blunt but I think you need to research a little when you start saying things like Before you are sure. -Benk

this looks like a very interesting contest *y* I dont usually do any pirate stuff and this would be my first ever pirate MOC but I think I'll have a go at this one contest to see if I like it. There's already some fine compotition though *wub* - I'll have to spend a lot of time on my entry. -Benk

wooohooo :-) I finally bring something new here - and I have been searching for quite some time. as for this set, I love it *wub* *wub* *wub* I never got the first one :'-( I am so pleased that they chose to redo it :'-) and this gunship does look awesome - alot better than the old one. slightly confused about the Salacious Crumb decal but oh well. the figs look promising too!! aahhhh *wub* -Benk

I dont know if this has been posted yet ( couldnt find it ) enjoy

wow :'-) , my first eurobricks contest and I came joint first *sweet* . Thank you so much to whoever voted for me and congrats to hinckley for his amazing copmike entry. A big well done to everyone that entered and thanks to zero1312 for hosting such a fun contest. -Benk

I use those at the moment but I was looking for a more general one without ropes and knives and things on it. thanks anyway :-) . I am creating my own decal now (it is still a WIP) I just need to smooth the edges front Back -Benk

Does anyone know if there is a good tactical vest decal? It would mean an awful lot to me somthing like this -Benk

Thanks Sinner Quite right :-D , When I had finished building it I did think 'hey, this just looks like a general mech' but after spending that long building it I wasnt prepared to go all the way back to the frame so I just left it. I am pleased with the frame (One of my best ever) and will probably write it down or just keep it for future mechs. Thanks again everyone :-) -Benk

I voted for hinckley on the resemblence of fig because before I even read what his entry was I could tell straight away it was copmike and it was so well made *y* *y* The second poll I had to think about a bit more :-/ . They were all great mechs but I think Shakar-special was indeed very well built so it gets my vote. :-) *y* well done to everyone that has entered. -Benk

great mech hinckley *y* I'm glad that you liked my entry everyone but it shouldnt stop you entering. I feel a bit bad now X-D . I build mechs all the time and if you could see some of my first you would burst out laughing - literally :-$ Anyway its a bit late now so good luck to other contestants :-) -Benk

what I'm working on at the moment is a minifig scale Lotus caterham seven ( *wub* one of my favourite cars *wub* ) work has undergone and it aint looking too bad. It's my first yellow car I've ever made :-D -Benk

Thanks chuck :-$ I actually gave you credit on my first sigfig post here. I would never ever ever not give credit where it is due, I just thought it a bit silly to post it on every one of my posts. I do think your fig is awsome and I do not want to take that away from you so sorry again X-D -Benk

Took me a while to get round to it but I have completed and posted my mech :-) -Benk

Here is my entry: Shadow marine not much of an intro, but hey X-D The front: The back: With my sig fig, on a diorama: For more pics of the weapons, the diorama and stuff --- The gallery --- -Benk

Thanks Hinckley, I resized the pics - (on powerpoint :-$ ) and added them to my original post. Glad you liked it -Benk

For the past three weeks, on and off, I have been worrking on my sigfig mech contest entry and now it is time for its big unveiling- 8-

as some of you have already seen, here is mine - Benk

Thanks dude. I assure you I have dropped this guy what, must have been like 50 times :-$ - very clumsy, and the hands have never come off the band. But i know what you mean the hands do look a tad breakable but it looks bare without them. -Benk

thanks :-) Helmet is the sports skating one -Benk

:-D I finally took pictures of my sig fig. WWIII marine You should probably know that my sig fig does change about once every 6 months but I do use the same face on each one (Until one I Prefer comes out X-D ) and that the band looped across the front of him was inspired by Chuck's Marcus Fenix. without further ado... his back - bit blurry his gun without gun Feel free to criticize and/or make suggestions thanks -Benk EDIT: I am curently working on the EB sig fig mech contest

Thanks everyone :-D But honestly, vista is not that bad. I really like it. That did bug me but I managed to turn it off.... somehow EDIT: Ive never heard of Benco before, it doesnt look like much of a beverage :-P

gee thanks Sadly I just got vista so I had to wipe my hardrive, but I did back up all my pictures.... it's just a question of finding them. That may take a while. :-D EDIT:When I find them there is also a picture of my sig fig which I will put as my avatar

Hello to all, my name is Ben Knowles. I joined back in September but have been sooooooo busy I just kinda forgot to introduce myself :-| . Anyway, ever since I was 2 or 3 I have been heavily into lego and over the years have built a huge collection, now my room practically made of the stuff. I collect all the lego my pockets can afford which includes most themes, but mostly I collect: Creator, Starwars, Exo-force, City and Technics.(not in that order) I mostly build mechs, cars and dioramas(big and small). I just thought I'd say hi as you may see alot more of me. I have found my home. EDIT:I think I used 'mostly' a bit much
