    The John Hannibal Center for High Energy Research AKA Black White Mesa? Awesome homage to an iconic scene! It's perfect!

    OK, I was already thinking this was awesome (that snail!)... but then the Dragonfly showed up Amazing stuff!

    Ha, love the critters!

    Wow, great camo and exterior! And then there's a great interior too! I love the clear modular walls!
  5. Big Sal
    Nice one! I like the engines at the back

    Nice first build! I like the equipment round the edges. One tip, if you don't mind: maybe see if you can tile the floor and tops of the walls next time - it makes a big difference

    Nice build! I like the MANTIS death ray crossbow The gate is good too, you did a great job making it look futuristic while keeping it recognisable Didn't we already steal that artifact from Octan once?

    Location: F03 Tags: Land Vehicle, Spying Ok, but... just explain it to me one more time... Unbelievable! This plan is like spying 101, I don't understand how you're not getting it. I've hacked Octan's computers to trick them into thinking they’ve detected a prisoner transport. They’re going to come after you thinking they’re rescuing one of their guys. Right… Redsyn here is one of our best drivers – he’ll lead them on a merry chase but will eventually let you be ‘rescued’. By using the tracking device we implanted in you we’ll find out where their base is when they take you back there. Simple! Uh… ok, I think I understand now. But why not use an actual Octan prisoner? I have… other uses… for the real prisoners. Unless you’d like to trade places with them? No sir! I thought not… But won’t they realise I’m not actually from Octan? No, they’ll never suspect it. I thought you said this was obvious, like spying 101… Don’t worry, our forces will show up well before Octan has time to find you out. This plan is foolproof! Wait… To be continued! Didn't have time to do the whole story this week. The vehicles are based on my first castle sets, 6042 Dungeon Hunters and 6018 Battle Dragon. More pics in the spoiler. Thanks for reading, C&C welcome!

    Moved

    I believe I'm right in saying that you can't place this build on F03 while the alien fleet is there. Where would you like to move it?
  13. Big Sal
    It doesn't really matter too much, but I can't see anything that counts as spying in this build.

    Nice first AG build Ragnos! To make things easier for the judges we ask that you include the location and tags at the start of the build, like this: Location: H08 Tags: Civil, Building I've assumed you want to tag your build as a civil building because that gives Octan a bonus. You can ask your team mates about that

    Location: E01 Tags: Land Vehicle, Spying Excerpt from the mission logs of Big Sal: Date: 5 Marzn 3816. Mission Code: F2E01. Location: Octan territory, Donwarr. Mission Objective: Find and sabotage Octan communications equipment hidden in the forest. Excerpt ends. Please slow down Sal! We're sure to hit a tree at this rate! Nonsense! I used to be a pilot, remember? My reflexes are excellent. Fine, but how are we ever going to spot the aerial at this speed?? I'll see it. Wait, there it is! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Excerpt from the mission logs of Big Sal: Mission Outcome: Success - target destroyed. Excerpt ends. Thanks for reading! Not much time for a big story this week. C&C welcome. More pictures of the car in the spoiler.

    Welcome to the game! I wouldn't worry too much about the brick collection. For example, you could be a spy for Octan and do builds with your character spying on Kawashita, which would let you build Kawashita buildings and vehicles. Or you could be an explorer and focus on building landscapes where you wouldn't need much in the way of Octan colours. Anyone can submit an alien build - you don't even need to sign up as an alien or anything like that. Just being a member of Eurobricks is enough You can do some alien builds and then also join a corporation later on if you want to. Hope that helps! Don't hesitate to ask if you have more questions

    Incredible! I love that it has an interior and the detachable cargo pods. Great work!

    Haha, I love that the high and mighty leaders of MANTIS were apparently necessary to deal with a tiny dinosaur And the non-obvious pirate hat The mech and bug are really great too. I like the new backdrop, but your photos look a bit washed out somehow. Have you tried playing with the contrast? It can help to deepen the blacks in MANTIS builds - I often increase the contrast a bit on my photos. It seems to help with graininess somehow too. I tried it on one of yours: The right picture just has the contrast increased a bit. It's subtle, but I think it makes a difference. Almost every photo editing program can do it. In fact, I think you can do it in Powerpoint/Word.

    Haha, awesome! Great use of those foil Friends stickers! I've had Milkshake stuck in my head ever since I read this yesterday

    Nice micro volcanoes! The ship is good too
  22. Big Sal
    Great bug-inspired vehicle! Nice landscape too
  23. Big Sal
    Nice build by the way - it's great to see Dr Long back. Can't wait to find out what happened to her!
  24. Big Sal
    Nice! Those little cameras are cute!
  25. Big Sal
    I don't know which part I like the best - the rover, bar, and ship with landing pad are all really great! Love the guy throwing up in the bar
