Location: H09 Tags: Exploration, Science As we all know, Dr. Danielle was asking Guy to get a few samples on Wastyria - and a whole host of other places, of course. But how do you eat an elephant, if not one bite at a time? So Guy took a peek at what was waiting for him on Wastyria.... and then decided to offer to take over the laundry jobs for the Octan executives. A few views of just the rock: Since I made it to be viewed from all size, I had to get pictures of that, of course! Thanks for checking this MOC out! I think this is some of the best rockwork I've ever done. As for the snake... well, I'm not much of a creature builder. But I tried!

This is a really nice build Marcu! The sand-scape is really neat and the worm looks appropriately terrifying!

@Marcu, welcome! Glad you took my advice! Besides the challenge build everyone is allowed one other weekly scored freebuild. That's optional of course though! @shmails, sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're still building though, I've really enjoyed seeing what you've done so far!

Very nice build! The exploding lava looks great, and good job on the creature's shape as well!

Frozen Solid, +1 Xerxia, +1 Return, +1 Oasis, +1 Inside, your link isn't working for me...

Really like the shape of that yellow rock kabel, the lush vegetation looks really good as well! Why does that alien critter remind me of a gargantium mosquito though?

Very nice inn, and I love all the activity going on! The walkway underneath looks really good too, and its cool to see so many sigfigs!

Very nice build, I'm really liking the black rock and lava! The battle scenes are pretty good too!

Yes!

Location: E01 Tags: Exploration, Science, Spaceship This is Guy Wynd, pilot. Do you read me, Dr. Danielle? Loud and clear Guy. What's the status? Incoming on E01. Yellow rocks, red landscape. Preparing to land. Copy that. Are you able to get any samples? Samples? I don't like the sound of that. Last time I was asked to bring back a sliver of this massive transforming vicious alien creature... Yeah, I remember that actually. My assistant was claiming you brought back pure rock. What's that? Nevermind, I'm landing. Okay... *Hello, this is Octan cleaning services, how would you like your laundry today* Oh, brother. Talking Laundry machines. What's next? Excuse me? I didn't catch that. Yes, er, I was saying, this time you need to get a sample. And then something about talking? Yeah, er, *medium wash cold process starting. Please add soap* Augh! Dumb machine! I'm getting the soap! What's that? Are you in the Utility room? Yes I am! Oh. Well I'm still waiting for instructions. You are my branch executive you know. I told you to get a... By the way, I had this really good idea... Here we go again. ...that you know what, First Branch Executives really shouldn't have to do their own laundry. I mean, I bet Lord Business and CEO Shmails aren't doing their laundry! Which means you'd like me to... Find a sample! Didn't I say that? Oh. I was hoping for some other sort of instructions. Well, as far as I can see the only thing to be had here is a bit of biomass... wait, hold it. There's one of these crystals that looks like it's a little bit differently colored. Get that one. What? It could explode! Get it! I'm approaching... I don't know... are we sure we want to do this? ... Andromeda could go up in smoke... I'm getting closer! ... Are you sure... Yes! I'm s... *beeep beeep machine overload. Please remove some of your laundry. Thank you.* Oh come on, this is Octan! We should have bigger laundry machines! ...have you got the crystal? Um... not yet. I was kinda hoping you'd forget. I don't forget anything... *it would seem you have forgotten the soap. Please add soap.* As I was saying, I don't forget anything science related. Okay, I'm getting closer... getting closer... this could be the end... Dr. Danielle? Well, have you got it yet? Whew. You're still there. You'd better message Farmolis, just to be sure nothing happened on some remote planet. You got the crystal?! Sure did! Still waiting for it to do something... Huh. I didn't really expect you to. Looks like just a off colored biomass crystal to me. No need to bring it back if you don't want to. What?! You mean I went through all that mental trauma for... nothing? Most mental trauma is pointless. Thanks for the encouragement. Right-o. And now that you're done with that, I'd like a few samples from Wastyria, Jen's Star and Zimunsk, Arium Major, Lesser Drigo, and I've really been wanting a bit of asteroid dust from the Fascini cluster. Maybe the last one could wait for tomorrow though. Wait... what on... okay, I really am not sure I get this... and you're over there doing laundry?! Man, these executives are sure living it up! Oh yeah, that reminds me. Soap. And don't let me forget about getting the CEO to find someone else to do laundry for us. ...Are you headed for Wastyria yet? *sigh* I really need to move up to branch executive. I'm on my way... Alright! Signing out! Another shot of the main build. And an overview of the laundry room! Well, I think Mantis's awesome showing has been making us all up our game... you guys are really playing it strong! For scoring purposes, note that this is the same little vehicle I used earlier. C&C appreciated as always!

Another great build from you SK, I really like the use of round dk flesh on the landscaping and you are getting really good at these heavy duty vehicles!

That nest looks fabulous, the bird's shape is great too especially those wings! Good job on the FP as well!

I know, took me forever to get it down right too! Now it looks like I can't get it out of my head though...

I suppose Garmadon and I should enjoy our single days... I do think that this last category has really helped my building skills especially in the area of speed building, which is doubtless a valuable skill! Speaking of speed building, I'm starting to be afraid that I'll have to do a lot more of that if I want to get all the other three categories done! I'd recommend stating in the beginning post that each person should only make one post in the thread and then edit it. It's kind of a pain to scroll through dozens of posts by the same three or four builders, which seemed to happen last time.

I think I'll check with Ska about that. Just kidding. Thank you!

Chrome too. I do think it may have happened to me on IE before but I can't remember. I do know that for various other reasons IE wasn't too cooperative...

Thanks Mike! It's about the only thing mummies are good for... If you could find it in you to add a to your post I'd appreciate it... I'm still missing two approvals...

Thank you! I believe the building is actually yellow though... Thanks! Color is something I often find need to resort to... I did kinda wish that I had about twice as many figs though... Thank you Garmadon! Thanks SK! No city scene is complete without flags! JK.

Thanks Balbo! Thank you! I think I'll have to revisit the concept at some time and spend a bit more time on it! Thanks SK! Details... Thank you!

Thanks pombe! The story was a little rushed though. Hopefully this week I'll have a better crafted story to my build! You know, I'll bet it is, but don't worry because we went back and got it and now it's safely stashed away over at... oh wait. Nevermind. Thank you! Thanks! Guy will think about it. Thanks Boxerlego! Pilots vanishing midflight... not a good sign... see why Guy was worried? Thank y'all!

Hmm... that may have come out a little wrong... Well, I think I build as good as I trash talk. But then, I may not trash talk very well,

An awesome band of adventurers you got there, even if they are sorta totally the wrong colors... The interior is really nice, especially love the details on the walls and the lighted shots are great!

Those "little" critters are so cute! The ice cliff is very effective too!

Very nice build Marcu, I really like the little splashes of green with the various plants! The white on the tower also adds some agreeable color variation!

It happens to me as well, although I can't say it drives me nuts as I've become quite used to it, haha.
