    Loving the foliage, and also the crates. Simple but very effective!

    Haha! Super dynamic build! I'm scratching my head trying to work out how you suspended the figs!
  3. Big Sal
    Haha, great build and funny story
  4. Big Sal
    Haha, every time! Hilarious story once again, and great build

    Excerpt from the lab book of Big Sal: Date: 14 Junali 3815. Experiment Code: L3A05. Lead Scientist: Big Sal. Laboratory: Yallorn II, Laboratory Outpost 3. Aim: Analyse items obtained by field agents. Excerpt ends. Ah, it’s good to be back in the lab. I can’t believe how long it took to analyse all of Lafevre’s seaweed samples after she inconsiderately got herself killed. I’ll be happy if I never see another plant for the rest of my life. Right, let’s see if I can figure out this… thing… that Arariel stole from Kawashita. At times like these, delicate scientific technique is called for. This thing is useless! I bet Arariel just swiped the first ornament he saw from the public lobby of that museum then came back and made up some story about his amazing infiltration skills. Maybe I’ll have more luck with the tentacle from the creature Mark of Orion encountered here. Can’t be bothered with DNA analysis, I’ll just inject some awesomnium extract and see what happens… … … … Ugh, looks like it’s just going to be one of those days when nothing works. Excerpt from the lab book of Big Sal: Method: Conducted highly scientific analysis of object K-5654 and Yallorn II xenos sample. Results: Detailed analysis of both items revealed nothing of use to M.A.N.T.I.S. Conclusions: None. Safety Report: None. Excerpt ends. Was that a ship landing outside? Best go check it out. Alright mate, got a delivery for Big Sal. That’s me. Nice one pal, I’ve been all over the place trying to deliver this. Sign here please. Righto. What have you got for me? What the hell?? What's with all the plants?! Long story mate. They were meant to go to Dr Lefevre on Barnius, but when I showed up there it turned out she was dead. So I look at the personnel files and the next most qualified botanist is Dr Johnson on Linopeia III. Would you believe it, I turn up there and he’s dead too! Never knew plants were so dangerous, heh heh. Anyway, I figured I’d just bring them to the ranking scientist to deal with, and that’s you. But I hate plants! Take them to Dr Arkov! Nah pal, you signed for ‘em, see? Not my problem any more. But… but… See ya! Didn't have time to do everything I wanted with the story, but oh well. I tried to include as much stuff from other M.A.N.T.I.S. builds as I could. Comments and criticism welcome! More pics, including proof that the lab is inside the building, in the spoiler.

    Request to transfer 126 credits to Dave Daring.

    Nice equipment - I like how many things branch off it at the top
  8. Big Sal
    Nice build! I like the little drone with the Ice Planet chainsaw
  9. Big Sal
    Great landscape!
  10. Big Sal
    Very stylish micro build! The shape of the ship is great!
  11. Big Sal
    Nice truck - looks great fun to play with
  12. Big Sal
    Great action build once again!
  13. Big Sal
    Nice build, and great landscaping! An obsession with dangerous aliens and a callous disregard for human life - we'll make a M.A.N.T.I.S. scientist of you yet
  14. Big Sal
    Nice build! I like the droid! I don't actually mind studs showing myself, but I'd have been tempted to at least tile the top of the grey wall at the back just to make the model look a bit more finished
  15. Big Sal
    Wow, so many different great builds, I don't know where to start! The bike is brilliant, but I think my favourite part is the water and how well you've shaped the ground around it. Great lab too - the fume hood jumped out at me straight away as a great representation! And I love the plant slowly breaking out of it in the background
  16. Big Sal
    The black and white shots are always a nice preview, but it's the full colour reveals that blow me away every week, and this is your best yet! Incredible build!
  17. Big Sal
    Your builds are fantastic! So many great details - the DNA, the M.A.N.T.I.S. logo, the plants, the cables! I wish your photos were a bit clearer so I could appreciate the details even more Have you tried using a tripod to steady the camera? You can get them fairly cheap, or even build a crude one out of Lego
  18. Big Sal
    Great little camp - so many interesting details, and it looks a nice place to stay for a while. The foliage is really well done too
  19. Big Sal
    Wow! I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that weaponry! I love how you've done the engines - great use of parts!
  20. Big Sal
    Amazing! This build has a great nocturnal look to it because of the background and colour scheme. And the plants are fantastic, especially those mushrooms
  21. Big Sal
    Very nice! I like how you used a limited colour palette to great effect!
  22. Big Sal
    Haha! Amazing presentation on the build!
  23. Big Sal
    I like the background and the way you've used the different shades of brown
  24. Big Sal
    Maybe we can ransom it back to them? Nice build and story
  25. Big Sal
    Great brick built mantis!
