Sail Barge. The ISD just looks terribly out of scale (and the transgreen looks awful).

I'm pretty sure it's free untill June, so he might actually have to pay for it. By the way, tomorrow the beta version of the Opera browser can be downloaded :-D

Can you please stop this senseless discussion? You both seem to want the last word, which isn't exactly a sign of adulthood...

Chrono Cross is the sequel to one of the best games of all time, Chrono Trigger. It was released for PS1 in Japan and the US. The Frozen Flame is an important item in it. I'm much more into (retro) gaming then Lego nowadays, so...

Was I the only one thinking of Chrono Cross instead of terribly bad music? 8-|

The weather channel is now online (at least for Europe). Looks really neat, I had to pick a province first, then the town I was closest to (luckily it had my hometown as one of only 2 options). Looks pretty cool but I doubt I'll use it much. If I want to know what weather it'll be I'll check the paper...

Blue and orange remind me of classic space...in a bad way. Really, what you need for a good space MOC is one 'relaxed' color (like white or grey) and one 'dominant' color (yellow, red, blue, green, you name it). You chose 2 dominant colors (orange and blue), which, in my opinion, leads to a terrible color scheme. Try changing the blue for old darkgrey, or the orange for white. As another rule for color schemes: 3 colors max (2 is preferred). I see at least 5 colors in there. I suggest throwing out the black (terrible color for spaceships in my opinion) and expanding the grey (if you have the pieces to do so) Enough about the color, onto the building. Basically, this looks really random to me. For instance, the wings. You have a 8 x 2 blue plate with a 1 x 4 orange one on top. Why? Does it really add to the looks? Same for the tubes. And then we have the issue of blockiness. My early MOCs suffered from it to, but in this case, it really looks awful. For instance the cockpit: you suddenly add like 4 bricks to the height of the ship. It'd be better if you'd smoothen the change over a larger area. Don't forget, spaceships tend to be quite aerodynamical. Using tiles really helps. I think that if you'd change the color scheme and use some more SNOT techniques, this could turn into a MOC that'd be a lot better. Sorry if this sounds harsh, but I always find that to be helping the most myself...

I'm afraid I'm with l2k on this one...

I just ran into this one and it's really cool :-D

Did you make this? Or did you find it on Brickshelf?

Don't bother, he's been chambered already :-P

Does "Brokeback Mountain" Qualify as Lego Theater?

That was really worth posting in a topic that's been dead for weeks, don't you think? :-| -
A very big Black Falcon castle on ebay...
Kikuichimonji replied to Bonaparte's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
I wonder if he'll list it again with a lower price... -
I always found Ebay to be quite reliable since you can check feedback at any time. Which makes it a real shame I had some arrogant seller that decided to leave a negative and kill my 100% score because I left neutral (item took almost 2 months to arrive). That's the downside, but when it comes to actually receiving the item, I find Ebay to be quite safe. Not as safe as Bricklink though :-)
-
Whoa, those things look like malformed aliens. How ugly can you be... And I agree, they wouldn't fit into the Aquaraiders theme because they don't look like real animals.
-
I don't think it's a pirate captain, Phes :-D Anyway, welcome. Don't forget to use punctuation (and don't post stuff like you did in that Ebay topic)...

I think it would be better to start a new one, since this is way too old to continue in my opinion. And yeah, I know how much work it takes to create one ;-)

Doublepost, I know, but did anyway get Metal Slug Anthology? Us Europeans have to wait untill February before we get it unfortunately, so I was wondering if anyone has played it and can give their opinion on it? And Joe, do you have a friend code yet?
-
Yoda, how's Red Steel? I'm thinking of getting it since I've finished Zelda and need a game to play in my Christmas holidays... Also, when you figure out your friend code, just post it in the official toppic and I'll add it to the list :-)
-
The only plausible explanation is that the seller made a mistake...

What do your friends/family think of your hobby?
Kikuichimonji replied to Brainbox's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Heh, made me think of something my dad once said after I bought a Sandcrawler. "It's a waste of money, but I'd rather have him spend it on this then on drugs" :-D -
Man, that is one ugly speeder. And the turret isn't exaclt bautiful either. The figs and new guns however, completely make up for that :-D
-
And I say: don't judge a game after beating it once. Twilight Princess is good, but will not make it into my games top 10 (not yet, anyway). But I agree that it's a game everybody needs to play ;-)
