  1. Thank you and you are right. The ground plates are not optimal. I needed a set for placing the pretty large ship so 64×64 it should be. And I just don't have enough lbg tiles Anyway this set to introduce the Cloudrunner was not intended to be super eye catching but I tried a more pragmatic approach. After I started the story I feel a little with them film makers when they have to decide what to build up as a set in high detail and what to keep more simple to be able to move on with the story. The dark tan wall plates were coming of a similar thought. How can I cover a tall background with limited amount of bricks and make it still look sloped and somewhat appealing Next chapter coming soon Thank you. You mean the watch tower? I had it also on the other airfield build, manned with a rebel trooper .
  2. This answers the question if Mar'Cato is an elite scout or not. Poor innocent pirate Cool action shot and nice start to the game. To me, Crait was one of the very few highlights of TLJ (the planet design, not the battle), with the salty plains and red soil below and you caught it quite nicely.
  3. Hello and welcome . So you chose le côté obscur... Bad for the light side, good for them baddies. Mar'Cato seems like he's a little bit more capable than the scouts from the beginning of Mandalorian, season 2. But we'll see . Yet he has to realize that his beloved Empire is shattered and a New Republic on the rise Nuff said. First and foremost, enjoy building and have fun!
  4. I was looking forward to this You are the master of texture. Period. Each and every brick is placed with purpose. No wonder it took you longer this time Great finale to the episode on Dagro! I already expected the darkest of them Sith lords to be a fake one, but still the rumours of his ascent spread across the stars. Good that Rox and his team ended this charade. The building on the right is amazing and since I had a preview on it in our team's thread already, I was curious about the left one. Splendid appearence and the oval top is just slick. And the door... aren't that those shooters creating that neat color transition? Such a nice part usage! Last but not least, the arch is great with the leaning reddish columns. You did here some nice little reprise of your last builds, also with the republic spy kneeling atop of the white building.
  5. Congratulations to all the other winners, cheers to all the participants and thanks to the organizers for enabling the contest. It was both an enjoyable challenge and fun to address the different categories and it really catalyzed so many splendid builds! Looking forward to seeing many of you in the Mysteries RPG. Hint: The Light Side team may be trailing but you can change the fate. Choose the light and start building for the New Rebublic!
  6. What I would have loved for the Episode 1 anniversary were either a Naboo troopers or Gungan army battle pack with a Kaadu. That would have nicely complemented the B1's that came as May the 4th special. Maybe we'll get that someday An alien "battle pack" would also be something I'd definitely go for... Edit: sorry I think it's the wrong category. It's more part of wishlist
  7. This is perfect. Absolutely convincing. 10/10.
  8. This is gorgeous! I very much like your opee and this a great complement. Next the sando! And in scale

So it is Madine in command of this undertaking?« »Let's just say ... he is aware of what we do. Let's get aboard.« The three settle in the lounge of the courier ship. » So what did I miss? Is the Alliance still advancing?« » You heard about Valor, right?« » Oh I did. Was a big blow. Any news on who dunnit?« » Could have been any remnant Warlord or independent mobster, sending a message. What matters is, that the New Rebublic lost essential assets that day. We still may have better morale and stand united but the reality is, the ISB never ceased to exist. And they're regrouping. Just read this. « Bolt reading from a pad... » Hrmpf. I'll gladly show 'em one of those camps on Kashyyyk, Narkina or Clonedyke. Give 'em an inside tour. This is wrong on so many levels. Where you got this?« » It is a transcript of a remnant town hall. Got it via the network. The important thing is, that there are Imperials who do everything to undermine the Republic efforts for freedom and peace. We are fighting on many fronts. There is the sighting of a Sith lord on Dagro. There are rumors of a dangerous remnant Quarren Moff. And then there is people like Vonreg. « » But we have Jedi Skywalker, don't we? He blew up the Death Star. Twice. « » I think you got it wrong, but even if it were so, he is only one man and there is a myriad of worlds on fire. We must - « Suddenly, the hatch bell rings. Xher is checking for the intruder. » Nice ship you have. YV-560, right? I want to speak with the Bothan.« » It is alright, Xher. This young man is Mr. Aves. You being here is a surprise for sure, smuggler. But a welcome one. Does that mean he agreed to a meeting?« » Come with me and find out. But I only have one free seat...« to next chapter >> ***** Hello and welcome to the 6. chapter of RotLA. The YV-560 Cloudrunner is a ship I built already some months ago and it was displayed on flickr so I guess it should not count for scoring. Hence here some additional images of the hangar set on Corellia without it.
  10. Thank you It came very spontaneously with the evening light and looked striking. Sure he is The idea to add an (of course) golden plant to the window scene came also spontaneously during building. And suddenly Vonreg was casually cherishing the golden shrub, while making that important call
  11. Very cool entry and an even cooler pilot, it seems The ship itself is great but the set around makes it truly remarkable. I can hear the crowd buzzing when Keeto races by. And above all, the water is amazing. I think this is a great example of how to make a convincing splash effect. The intro is cool and I'm curious to see more of Keeto making another graceful exit!

I can get you off world. But it will come with a price [...] « After the meeting of his double with Kuenaga, he is disrupted by familiar sound of servo motors... » Were you successful with the curator, master? « » Yes it went as I have forseen, V9. The changeling served the purpose again and I have Kuenaga in my grip. I just need to organize a safe transport... Now what do you have for me? « » You have received an invitation to the gala dinner, master! « » Finally! I knew they could not afford to keep me off the invitee list! « » Your influence on the committee for economics helped, I reckon. « » I hope the princess will be there as well... « » She will attend the dinner, master. At least according to the official list of attendees. « » Good, good! For so long I want to make a courtesy call on her. We have plenty to talk about… « to next chapter >> ***** Hello, this is a small vignette of Vonreg in his mansion, where he safely dictates the words to his double on Coruscant. I didn't want to put this build into the Coruscant post so that scoring is not mixed up. So the story is a bit split. Here are additional pics at indirect sunlight:

On Coruscant, a mysterious hooded figure arrives and passes all security measures, set up by the alerted ISB... »Who is she? She's beautiful! « »i don't know. I've never seen her here. « The mysterious hooded figure has a clear destination... ...the abandoned industrial levels, deep down, under kilometers of concrete and transparisteel, where he or she is already impatiently awaited... »Baron Vonreg. Is it you? I was afraid you weren't coming. Coruscant isn't safe anymore. Especially not for the emperor’s faithful. « »Indeed. I heard that Isard is tired of the Grand Vizier and the group of lickspits the imperial council always was. « »Rude, but true. She has put the grand vizier under house arrest. The two are playing a game of Holo-chess and we are the pawns. « »You can imagine, I assumed a big risk to come here, curator Kuenaga. This time, you better have something of value for me. « » Hrmpf. How the tides turn... some time ago, you wouldn't be this daring… « The old man produces an artifact out of his pocket and hands it over to Vonreg. » Ah, the Disciples' Heart. Good enough - for the time being. « »So you only came here to scrounge another piece of the late emperors treasures? Or are you finally willing to help me? You know I need to get off world. Sooner or later, she will kill us! « »I understand your impatience but that won't be easy, curator. The ISB has its agents everywhere. « »But you... you managed to come here. Despite being wanted for treason. Why would they let you pass, unless... you are part of the ISB?! « »Calm yourself, Kuenaga. I'm no friend of Isard and her band of spies. I have other ways to come and go... « Indeed. The real Ezhugh Vonreg is safe somewhere else, giving orders to his servant.... »I can get you off world. But it will come with a price. « »What do you want, Vonreg? Another relic from the Imperial palace? « »No. You know better than me that Palpatine kept his most precious artifacts safe from the cringers here. The real treasure is on a hidden planet somewhere. And I want it all... « to next chapter >> ***** Hello and welcome to chapter 4 of the "Raiders of the Lost Art". I had to pull-in this piece of story and change of perspective because of the "May the 4th" contest. I hope with the double posting alongside my Coruscant entry for M4-24, it is eligible for the x2 points Anyway, you can follow-up on the story with Ward Len'ya, Xher and Arthemias Bolt soon...
  14. I think there is no contraindication in the rules to post more than one entry per category. In the end all get their score on their own. But I understand your concern in terms of the aggregate. Anticipating the mods reply, I would withdraw my 'Jedi Night' build for the Grand Admiral contest.
  15. Thank you very much Haha not Doctor Strange. Professor Strange. But he should be a Doctor then too. It's the Hugo Strange minifig Thanks a lot! It's not a mannequin It should be Xizor, the Falleen black sun underlord. He is often depicted in purple and gold. I gave him a skull into the hand as a reference to his title prince (like Shakespearean prince Hamlet. Very meta, I know). I appreciate that, you highlight such a small detail with the Rodian . Thank you! I know the entries are similar from the setting point of view. I saw your amazing palace but I would not be able to change the setting (and planned title) of my build anymore .
  16. Thank you for clarification.

  17. ***** » Good morning! My name is Rool, and today I will show you how I live on the most astonishing planet in the galaxy: The imperial centre Coruscant. For the record, it's about 21 years since the new order brought peace and prosperity to the galaxy (and 2 years since the Death Star-incident by the way, but let's not talk about that). « » Coruscant is all about stories. There is so many of them. Come along and see... First something about me: I'm 25 years old and this is where I live. Level 91! I will not walk you through the appartment, as my mum is a bit shy and doesn't like holo-cams! Ah, there are my neighbours, Reesa and Perry. They're happily expecting a baby. If it's a boy, I think I'll propose to name him Sheev ... And there at the holophone booth, that's Mr. Silgran. Hello Mr. Silgran! « » Ah, hello Rool! The connection to the upper levels is bad again. Will you and your office do something about it?! « » Yes Mr. Silgran! ... So, where was I? Ah yes. I'm an assistant supervisor - « » Assistant to the supervisor! « » Yes thank you Mr. Leenart. So, I'm assistant to the supervisor of communications in this sector and responsible for the technical stuff so that the different levels and sectors can talk to each other. I will not show you my offices today though. That's boring. Instead, we'll start the day on the surface! « » Usually I do not visit the surface. The elevator is just too expensive. Can you imagine, there is millions of people living on the lower levels, never seeing true daylight all day! Oh, there is Mr. Silgran again. He's a salesman and got some business to do at the upper levels. And there is our protectors, the imperial officers and troopers! « » You see that? That's one of the imperial palace-tour gondolas! Isn't that romantic? I'm saving my credits for it. My mum dreams of a ride at sundown and the droid driver will sing for us ' O sunshine mine...' The skyscrapers are owned by those big galactic companies. Important business going on there at the CEOs office... Let's now go back to the inner city. « » This is my favorite place to have my lunch. Gnawricca's bar and drive-in. Gnawricca is a big non-human 'thing' but she does the best dika-soup of old town - unless you don't mind a hair or two on your plate and some alien company... Oh, seems like that Rodian is making trouble. Gosh, why do the non-humans never have their scan-docs at hand? Watch that KX- law enforcer droid. They're hard-line! « » Rool? We have a complete black-out on line 9! Subsector K-05 is down! The tech droid says it's a wiring issue at this node-ID. You need to fix that. « » Why not send the droid? « » The node is at the abanndoned industry levels and he's afraid. It's not good for his circuits. You go. Leenart over. « » Quiet now. We are at one of the low levels. I mean really low. The elevator didn't even had a knob for it - that low. Rumours have it that some folk live here without having seen daylight for generations. They turned weird and mad. Good that I have company. The sector security sent TK-111 with me. I feel safe under his protection. « » Will you stop talking to the holo-cam and go on with it? I have a bad feeling about this place! « » Ok, I fixed it. Some junk-rat or mine-crab bit through the cable protection, I guess... « ... » So this was a sneak-peek into my day in the greatest of all cities in the galaxy: Coruscant! Have a good one! « ***** I hope you liked the tour through my final build for the May the 4th contest. As you can see, the build is modular and depicts the many different levels one can find on Coruscant. Some more images of speeders, minifigs and the tower.
  18. Fantastic entry and great catch of that scene. I'm still trying to figure out from which parts you managed to build the central bubble. It's so clever how you fixed and placed the fish. The use of perspective works also very well.
  19. That Sith droid looks awsome and menacing! Overall cool entry for the duel.
  20. Awsome! Cool character! Great for the mercs, challenge to the others. Welcome Can't help it, but it looks for me like Keeto Ranj was standing in front of a football (soccer) stadium entrance
  21. By the way, is this a must?
  22. Thanks, all of you. Appreciate it! I used... daylight . Happy it turned out this niecely, as I don't have any professional stage, nor have I made any post production. Plain white table and wall - the colorful model does it all
  23. Thanks, I'm happy you like story and build Yes, forgot to mention that. The E-Wing is 100% series. The X-Wing and A-Wing are series but the colored parts I changed. I wanted to match the color scheme of the New Republic which seems to be blue in the Ahsoka series. The Z-95 is my entry for the M4-24. Check out some better images here: The airbase and the pilots bar is a homage to the Adelphi airbase from The Mandalorian. That's why it's at the shore and the bar is a mix of a beach house and a pilot cantina with their trophies I hope, that the moc here is eligible for double points, since it's a M4-24 and Mysteries cross-over Took me some time to figure out how to intergrate the ship into the story. Sorry, Max_Lego for being first with the Z-95 but I'm curious about your ship as well

It's just your sister visiting. Why all the fuss? « » Sorry, I can't help it, Lieutenant Partt. As we were patrolling the Rim, I haven't seen Zebby for nearly 6 months. I'm just sooo excited to see her again! She's my hero! « » I know, I know. You told me the story. Big sister. Legendary pilot. Leader of Aurora Squadron. The reason why you joined. She blew-up the Death Star too, right? Skoal! « » Ha-ha. But she did participate in the battle above Endor. She is truly one of the best. That's why they made her member of the Spittin' Chicklets! « » The what? « » C'mon. The Chicklets? The elite aerobatic squadron of the Republic! They performed that stunnin' maneuvre at the anniversary celebrations. Haven't you seen the holo? Ah, I wish I could have been there. « » No I haven't. Any pilot could fly these formations. It's the Astromechs doing all the calc. Plain and simple. It's combat, where true talent shows. « » Ah that's why you been hit by that Snub-Fighter? Twice. Weren't it for me, you'd be hovering somewhere between Daimla and Terminus. And by the way, the Spittin Chicklets fly Z-95s. No Astromech. « » Look I had an inertial stabilzer malfunction and - « » Oh, here she comes! « » Zebby! « Lil' Sis' Biz! So glad to see you, honey! « » What? She is your sister? Oh by the seven moons, no! « » Sorry? Do I know you? « » He's my wingman. Get to know Lieutenant Partt. « » Hrmpf. Oh yea, we know each other. « » Ah yes, backup crew for Endor, right? « » Backup crew... You cost me the cockpit! « » Indeed, My fighter had issues and they gave me yours. Sorry. I owe you. « » I should be wearing a medal! Instead I'm the backup crew. « » Poor Partt... « » What a joker. I came here 'cause the Republic command reactivated the Aurora Squadron! And I'm here to recruit you both to join me - « » ... « to next chapter >> ***** Here are two extra pics of the custom colored ships:
  25. Hello, I'm presenting you today my entry for the Sabine's Paint Category: The Z-95 Headhunter, nicknamed "Spittin' Chicklet Nine". The starfighter is part of the New Republic aerobatic squadron "The Spittin' Chicklets". Piloted by talented Zebborah 'Zebby' Walsh, the Z-95 participated in the 1st anniversary of the victory against the Empire above Endor. The Spittin Chicklets showed their extraordinary skills with high adrenaline, wing-to-wing maneuvers and ended their show with a terrific fire work. Check out my Mysteries 'Return of the Lost Art' - Story for more info about Zebby! I based my Z-95 on the design from the Jedi Survivor video game. I hope you like it
