Edit - restoring missing entries moc depicts a group of rebels and imperials stuck together in a snowed-in bunker, half are determined to wait for rescue, the others wish to take their life into their own hands and brave the elements in the hopes of finding a ship. neither side is willing to cooperate.

spot on my concern, but the mods havent cleared it up entirely, do both mocs receive score that contributes to the aggregate? if so in theory next year i could make 120 mocs and as long as each one scores 1, i get full marks towards grand admiral. its not me wanting to take away from anybodys fun, but surely it should be that you can build multiple entries per category, but you must nominate your primary entry into the contest for scoring or that your highest scoring entry is the one that contributes to the aggregate. im sorry for being this way, its the competitiveness in me, i just want to win so badly

question for the mods, were we allowed multiple entries per catagory??

Hmmm worried about my entry now its a non-violent conflict, a duel of perspectives… that will determine the fates of the characters depicted. If it’s clear I’m gonna lose points because the characters aren’t smacking each other around then that’s a huge bummer

Are official Lego Star Wars stickers permitted? im trying to get the most out of the 100 part limit for duel of the fates and I will use every single element available to me lol

"Only official LEGO elements should be used. Avoid third party parts or clone bricks." no third party lighting i assume, lego light bricks only? i ask because it looks like the coruscant example has third party lighting

Well in that case! duel of the fates. At first glance, the two parties look obvious, rebels and empire. The conflict is actually arising between a mix of rebels/imperials, and another group of the same. provided my description explains the nature of the divide, is that fine?

Sorry to be a pain, but one other thing relating to the above. the ship i have in mind IS capable of flight in a vacuum...... when it is not in the state of disrepair i have in mind for my moc. does the moc qualify if the ship is capable ON PAPER just not in the scene depicted

Question for sabines catagory: you say no greyscale, no greys whites or blacks. is that a blanket ban on those three? or can there be VERY minimal use of the colour for mechanical detailing/weathering/damage?

How this didnt win Minifigure habitat i will never understand

just call me the modern nostradamus, we never stood a chance.....

damn it, you know the moment Thomas_Jenkins_Bricks enters thats it, game over..... you're just too good man, leave some for the rest of us xD

My Final Entry - Minifigure habitat My Final Entry - Minifigure habitat I realised my Imperial ship submission isnt actually on this thread, apologies

".....have you ever been on an imperial prisoner barge?..... Thought not, I've heard stories from prisoners who made it off Narkina 5... Bakura Prison.....I even met a woman once who claimed she survived the reprogramming institute.... The Barges... there's something that happens to you on a ship... no day...no night... the hum of the ships engine is your only friend, you cant tell if its been 3 days, or 6 months... ...its just sweat and time... and the occasional beating." - Unknown Drifter. Please accept this entry to the category Mini-figure Habitat. I set myself the challenge to build all four categories at once, so i couldn't re-use parts from one for the other. Particularly in this MOC, i found myself struggling for parts as i left it to last. what i wanted was to give the effect of claustrophobia, and discomfort, which lead to me adopting a 16x8 base (the trim is just decorative and doesn't count toward the MOC) Of the mocs i've made, this is the one i want to expand and build at a larger scale, with more characters and an upper level for imperial crew. Character Manifest: Prisoner: PK-663 - Iktotchi Male - 32 Crime: resisting arrest,public nuisance, dissent Sentence: 635 Cycles Remaining: 582 Cycles Prisoner: PK-7475 - Quarren Male - 56 Crime: delivery of defective goods, dissent Sentence: 1176 Cycles Remaining: 1123 Cycles Prisoner: R-44 - Human Female - 24 Crime: Please refer to the Imperial Security Bureau Sentence: Please refer to the Imperial Security Bureau Remaining: Please refer to the Imperial Security Bureau I hope you like it

Thank you both, i struggled with this build the most out of my entries, i agonised over what scene would be a worthwhile display of techniques and storytelling, and in the end i threw all those considerations out and just started building without a plan, i'm chuffed to bits with the result

i had to refer to lego's instructions because i'd never built this ship before myself, had no idea where to start with a pyramid type build. the wing folding mechanism is 1 to 1 lego's i'll freely admit to that, the wings took some inspiration from the official set because i didnt have the bricks to do it snot and i couldn't afford to buy the parts needed to make them long enough the only other part specifically drawn from lego was the use of the large half tiled corner plate making up the front of the side panelling there is no interior due to the pain in the backside shape, the pilot is in the cockpit, the whole cockpit slides out (and roof of cockpit) and is attached by technic to the main sail i'll include a photo of that when i get the chance tonight

My second entry, this one is for nature is after you

Figured out how to get any of this to work, here’s my submission for rogue clone!

This scene depicts two rogue clones setting Thermal Detonators at the base of an imperial refuelling depot's coolant pipes. "...And i thought getting IN was gonna be the hard part..."

M4-23 - Nature is After You - Wyyyschokk Territory Please accept this entry to the nature is after you catagory; During the reign of the Galactic Empire the ecological conditions of Kashyyyk were upended by the pollution spread by Imperial refinerys across the planets surface. This disruption resulted in frequent conflicts between the natural world, and the world of industry.  These scouts were unlucky enough to find themselves the victim of such a conflict. As required, the build meets the minimum size of the catagory, this is 24x24xbig'oltree

Apologies for the initial wrong format of the entry, I present the Delta/I Shuttle when I first played BF2 I wondered why Inferno squad didn’t have their own shuttle The Delta, as designed by Director Krennic was perfectly suited to their needs, practical, stripped back, stealthy and very fast, perfect for the Empire’s Special Forces as required the build is no larger than a lambda and can fit a pilot Added new photos to include an interior (clearly not the same build as the official set, engines, and removed unsightly colours at wing joint "how did this happen?, we're better than this!...." - Obi Wan Kenobi

My bad, I’ve got so caught up in the mocs that I assumed it just said three, many thanks! Should be posting in a day or two!

Been hard at work on the mocs, one last question regarding minifigure habitat: can I include a fourth figure for scene setting? I.e a generic imperial officer? or is it a hard cap at three custom characters? to clarify, the fourth figure wouldn’t be for entry as a figure, it’d just be scene context?

Much appreciated, I just coincidentally started it around the 10th not knowing about this contest, but after some exciting adjustments I’ve come up with id love to enter it into rogue clone

As a query: I’ve started a build this April, I posted the first of the progress photos to my Instagram page on the 14th of April now I understand that that is within the rules however, am I allowed to share the final build on that Instagram when it’s complete? the build in question is only a part of one of my entries, not the full scene
