  1. Very glad you did this, those pictures are 100% better (not perfect, but still, 100% better than before!). This ship deserved the better shots; I'm liking it's smoothness even more now!
  2. Very cool ship, I like the shape you've achieved and the gold on the back really pops!
  3. You've really improved. Congrats on 8000 posts, and thanks for the walk back through time. I kept thinking - "Oh, hey! I remember that one! Boy, I wouldn't recognize it as SK's now!"
  4. If that's the consensus of opinion it's fine with me. I don't see why on earth anyone would mind either.
  5. If a builder can't be contacted in any way and we can't get permission from him, I don't know that we should use his builds. I'm sure there will still be plenty to choose from.
  6. Yeah, we could certainly do more than 4 builds. In fact I think we could probably do maybe 1 poster per guild, with 10-15 top-notch builds, and then one overall poster with the builds that are a notch above top, if you know what I mean. With all the years GoH has been around, I'm sure we could find enough! Suggestions would certainly be appreciated. Maybe we should start a new thread for this. We should probably get at least a verbal permission from builders before using their pictures.
  7. Thank you! Thanks Wedge!
  8. Yes, BoBS is taking up a lot of my build time. But I do have a GoH MOC that I just finished! Trying to get some of the veterans back sounds like a good idea to me! I might be able to make a few promotional collages in the next couple of weeks as well.
  9. Very nice ship Phadeout, I really like the shape and the clean style. Great work on the sails as well. Wish we could have better pictures of it; part of your future solution could be a bit of adjustment to the brightness & contrast levels, I think that would really help.
  10. Scrolling through the pictures of this build was sheer eye candy. Fantastic work. I especially like the greenhouse (not sure if that's quite the right name) in the back. Great attention to detail all around!
  11. This ship is quite a beauty, lovely angles and curves! The gold highlights are great and really like that crazily elaborate lantern on the back!

  13. This is a continuation of the detective's story; check out the introduction, the next part, and the third part for more. As a result of Castilo's news - that was the name of the miserable poltroon he had dragged out of the slimy well - Rhys Thomson set off for Nova Terreli. Here he had a stop in search of an artist. Rhys walked into the artist's shop. The artist was busily engaged in painting yellow flowers. Rhys, always the detective, instantly noticed the lack of talent. This was just a sheer copy-paste sort of thing. A monkey could have done quite as well. Evidently, he thought to himself, Mia wasn't much of an artist. She must have been desperate to take this disguise. Rhys coughed slightly. The sight of cherries on the table had reminded him of what his wife always said. "Rhys Thomson! Why on earth did you cut down that beautiful cherry tree!" Never mind the fact that it hadn't had fruit for three years and was a positive eyesore to any reasonable human being. It was always her "beautiful cherry tree" - Rhys focused his attention on the detective trail and tried to forget cherry trees. The artist had turned around, and Rhys was pleased to recognize the description he had been given of Mia. A slightly different hair style, to be sure, but that couldn't fool Rhys. "What would you like?" Mia asked, a little coldly. "What is your name?" Rhys asked. "Roberta, the artist, to serve you." "You lie. Your name is Mia, you are not an artist, and you have no desire to serve me." Mia looked a little shocked at this abrupt and thorough denunciation. Rhys went on, "In my experience, it is not usual for dead people to come back to life and become artists. Perhaps you'd be able to explain?" Mia frowned. "What do you want out of me?" "All I want is an honest explanation. Of everything." Mia had recovered her self possession. "My name is Roberta and I am an artist. What more can I explain?" Rhys stepped forward authoritatively. "Don't play dumb. I'm not here alone. With the help of your little crone Castilo, I could crack down with a warrant for your arrest anytime. So just do your thing and explain!" Mia looked stunned. Rhys smiled. He pulled out a small notepad and began patiently to extract information. To be continued...

  16. A few days ago, Guy's Uncle's ex-chef made the terrible mistake of serving asparagus as a side dish for lunch. Uncle can't stand asparagus. His wife Elaine, however, has never cooked in her life; so a new chef was most definitely in order. Uncle has spent the last several days roaming New Eslandola in search of an asparagus hating chef, and has finally landed at Weelond's La Corona restaurant, where Chef Jalape is always pleased to show of his skills. After a delicious dinner of grilled fish, Uncle was ecstatic. This was the chef for him. Elaine, however, had been watching the chef out of the corner of her eye and had been quite alarmed by his reckless procedures with his humongous knife. She insisted upon asking a few questions before trying to strike a deal. Guy's Uncle began the conversation. "Delicious fish. Are you looking for a job?" Uncle never was good about beating around the bush. "Thankee! In course, I has a job, you sees - " "But, of course, you wouldn't mind a better one?" "Weel, no-o, I don't says..." "Wait a second!" Elaine interposed. "We're going a little fast here. Say! ...isn't that knife just a touch dangerous?" "Dangrus m'am? Oh, no-o! Not at all. In course, Jacques did cut off hes hand wid it, yesterday, and when I..." "But, you were saying," Guy's Uncle interposed, "that you wouldn't mind a better job?" "No-o, I think..." "But surely, if the knife isn't dangerous, your grill gets a bit out of control sometimes?" This was from Elaine. "Out of control?!? Oh no, m'am, I's very careful. You've no notion how many times I's stopped the flames right afore they reached the roof - why, just yesterday I was grilling..." "But!" Guy's Uncle interrupted, "But, of course, it would be even better if you had a better job. Maybe as a private chef?" "A private chef? Ye-es... I has sometimes thought on that..." "But," Elaine interjected, pointing, "is it really necessary to have that pail of water always on hand behind you?" "Oh yes, m'am! Why, I's just saying - yesterday I's busy with the grill, an' all on the sudden..." "Say!" Guy's Uncle cut in. "Perhaps you'd like to be a private chef for me?" Jalape looked at him in surprise. Then he flourished his knife in the air and sliced through the atmosphere with downright glee. "Why, sir, I'd be honored!" "It's settled then!" Uncle responded, before Elaine could add another word. This is actually one of my favorites of all my MOCs to date - really liked how the road technique worked here and the windows also turned out quite as well as I had envisioned them. Pretty fun to build too, though it took me a while to hit on the right color combinations and that sort of thing! C&C welcome! Thanks for looking!
  17. You are sure churning these out fast; but every one is just so good that they're all a pleasure to see! I especially like the stern on this one, but the shooting cannon ball is really neat too!
  18. Really nice design, the white wedge plates work super well. Mind if I borrow the general outline sometime?
  19. That tree is fantastic, has a very natural feel with the overhanging trunk! Great dash of color in the undergrowth as well.
  20. Love the shape of this and the bright color the blue adds! The cannons make the fort look quite imposing.
  21. Great work on the long and narrow shape here, and I really like your choice of colors with the blue and dark green! The diamonds on the side are great too!
  22. Very smooth curves here. Great colorscheme as well! Would be nice to get a picture that didn't crop some part or another of the boat, but other than that, great work!
  23. If you submitted an adjudication form it should be taken care of.
  24. Crazy how huge and awesome this is! The rockwork with the leaves sticking out is fantastic and the area with the Japanese buildings is stellar as well. The dashes of color with the lava and pink flowers are so good and all those details in the close-up shots really show the amount of work that went into this! Amazing job; and to top it all off the lighting is jaw dropping!
