Astromech Workplace Contest: Aboard Invisible Hand
purpleparadox replied to DanSto's topic in Watto's Junkyard
Neat brick-built figures! It looks great, very true to the Invisible Hand scene. Good luck! -
Now, if it were me faced with these choices, I might go with Jabba's Palace for the figs. Either that or the QAR for the actual set. But since you want the one best as a "Stand-Alone" set, go with the QAR. Out of the three the ship looks the most "finished". Jabba's Palace, whilst having great figures and a great design, is at the end of the day made to be played with by kids. So it won't look quite as impressive as the QAR. Hogwarts has the same problem. It doesn't look finished. It looks like part of Hogwarts. So, if it's meant for display...Queen Anne's Revenge.

Whatever you do- don't give up. Don't take it off of CUUSOO (if that's even possible). While I do agree with Erik Leppen in regards to multiple people contributing to an idea, I think yours is an idea that should stay. Sure, we've had cars before. But this is about the kind of car. The new techniques on the car. It's not like you simply took 8070 and posted it on CUUSOO. You created a new model, IMO a new idea, and posted it. It's been met with pretty good success. Just because some people don't support, just because it's not up some people's alleys, doesn't mean you should give up. Personally I'm not that into Technic. That doesn't mean everyone else won't like it! So keep up the good work, and never lose sight of your goal.

I've had the no-CSS problem as well. The lack of header image is less common for me, but it happens too.

Hi MinifTory! I'm looking forward to watching your brickfilms. I just started experimenting with some of my own, too. What're your favourite themes? Enjoy the site!

I was wondering the same thing myself. I can't tell what pieces are in between the arches...

Brickforge Pauldrons with Iron Man helmet?
purpleparadox replied to The-Hulk's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Hmm...I prefer the first pauldrons used over the rounded ones. Maybe that's just me, but the rounded ones seem to bubbly or something. Still, both types look great on Iron Man! -
There's something you don't see every day! Awesome MOC. I like all the different shapes, colours, bricks, and techniques you used in this building. Nice idea using the beard piece as shaving cream! Best of luck!

Fantastic Helicarrier! I can't wait for close-ups. LOTS of close-ups (hint, hint). Interior shots! Exterior shots! Shots of all of the heroes and villains! And, almost most importantly, shots of the Leviathan!
-
Nice one, Sok! Way better than the official set. Neat SNOT work on the wings.
-
HISHE is pretty funny (though not always correct. The Fellowship could NOT have taken the eagles! ). Nice job recreating the café!
-
Pretty neat! Reminds me of some of the crossovers Oky makes. EDIT: Haha, looks like Masked Builder said the same thing.

Astromech Workplace Contest: Trade Federation Battleship Bridge
purpleparadox replied to Artizan's topic in Watto's Junkyard
Cool entry! It all looks great, and really reminds me of all the Separatist ship's bridges seen in the movies (and TCW show). One detail I especially like is the ramp made of "cheese grater" pieces. Good luck! -
Astromech Workplace Contest: Targonnian Pursuit
purpleparadox replied to Flobnomdob's topic in Watto's Junkyard
Quite the interesting entry! I think it's cool that you based it on a comic. I like the police speeder, and the way you brick-built Master Zorneth's head. Good luck! -
The pics are still in the first post...maybe there's a problem with your computer?
-
I'd definitely go for the refund, and try again from a different seller. Do it before the previous seller refuses to give your money back! If he's disagreeable...just show him all the replies on this thread.
-
Yep, I could predict this: HULK...FAN...SMASH!!
-
Pun intended?
-
Wow, I can't believe it! You managed to make it even better! Seriously, it looks awesome with silver as a secondary colour. I hope you've got the bug for customizing, 'cause I want to see more!
-
Yup, I'm done too!

def: Have you ever watched The Dark Knight? I can see the whole premise as being flawed if you didn't watch TDK first, but otherwise it makes perfect sense. He didn't take the hiatus simply because of Rachel, but also Harvey Dent. Additionally, he took the blame for Dent's crimes (5 murders, two of lthem cops), making him an outlaw. The police would be chasing him during every single second he was out as Batman. Batman wasn't needed enough until Bane arrived. However, the fact that Bruce Wayne became a recluse was due to extreme grief. He had believed that Rachel would wait for him, and she died. He didn't know how to cope. I can understand if you didn't like that, but I thought it worked perfectly. I'd say TDKR trumps The Amazing Spiderman.
