  1. Formerly known as helloearthling is literally that I requested a username change to match my Flickr. I think I need a more embarrassing title by now
  2. On a different topic, if the staff plan on updating/balancing the tech tree, it might be about time to do it so that everything is on the table
  3. A bajillion and 93 credits to NuckElBerg.
  4. Lovely build, the microscale really works on these types of models. Lots of little details going on, and the train is especially nice. Yes, you can do big links. With Imgur, upload at a large size and embed the "Huge thumbnail" here. Then, hotlink it to the "full size" image option. No need to upload twice. (We can't upload 2000px wide images and have them resized by HTML, but luckily Imgur auto-generates a few sizes and we can use those without much hassle.) Eurobricks width limit is 1000px, technically the huge thumbnails are 1024px but I believe they still work fine and it's in the spirit of the rules at least.
  5. Glad to have you aboard. I hear you have read "A Brief History of Kawashita" cover to cover. I hope you see that my name is referenced on page 443!
  6. Great bomber Aeralure, very proud of our team this week
  7. This works really well IMO, very evocative.
  8. When I see your Flickr stream I'm sometimes surprised you're not building for Kawashita, Bob! You've got a lot of love for dark red and bley, I wouldn't be surprised to find out you're a double agent
  9. I like the pivoting wings, good work!
  10. Thanks folks I've got a small but dedicated Lego area from this week on, so hopefully I can really step up my game now!
  11. Hi Bob, what should we do when something is tangentially linked? My week's build is specialised for exploration with its design and equipment setup, but in itself does not actually contain any encounter or fauna. Would this be eligible for exploration or is it stricter than that?
  12. It's an awesomnium... thingy... Very nice work, I like how some bars are askew to show the decay.
  13. The Hummingbird is an experimental ship, designed to be versatile and capable of handling all scouting and exploration tasks. It features a laser cutter and a manipulation arm, although these could be swapped out for armaments and other appendages. Can fly in-atmosphere or support a larger space vessel, but it cannot make the leap into orbit solo. In the hanger of ship-of-the-line Behemoth II "Commander, how are you feeling about the trial in Fascini?" "Good, thank you Lieutenant. Nothing wrong at all." "Sir, your hands are shaking. I know you hate prototype ships" "What, me? No! I am a man of confidence and honour. This shaking is just my phone vibrating in my pocket, see? Let me just answer this phone call I am receiving! Hello, phone, sorry, I mean hello. No, I am just answering my phone and having a conversation with you, friend!" It's a ship specifically designed for exploration, but it would be a stretch to tag it as such without the requisite alien/fauna. So no job bonus for me!
  14. 98 credits to NuckElBerg
  15. Space aliens, do you copy?

  16. I've been making little extras to my main MOCs for the last few builds, I think it's a fun way to tell a story. I like that there's an opinion for people who want to tell even more stories, although I don't have the time for that myself!
  17. Killer work, looking forward to seeing what's next in your arsenal
  18. Thanks for the cameo! Smart use of minifigs plus digital to get the results you wanted, and lots of your plants are very original! Totally making use of the LDD parts selection. I'd be happy to photograph some relevant thumbnails of my character if you want me again in the future He's got a two sided face, grumpy and very grumpy, you choose!
  19. I'm also a supporter of Imgur, you can get an account and upload a whole bunch of images very fast. Then just grab the URLs and embed them into posts, easy peasy.
  20. Nice little conflict. You can embed the images here by clicking the button that looks like a tree and pasting in the URL. If you're on mobile you might need to enable desktop view, or you can use the code: [img=url.jpg] Looking forward to more!
  21. Great ship Bob, your best in AG in my opinion. The hanger completes the scene, but the flow of the ship is what impresses me.
  22. Question: why is the "spoil of war" upgrade worth 20 resources per build, when the other equivalent ones are only worth 10? FWIW, "Alien communication" at the same level in the science branch seems to be very underpowered as the difference of 1 domination point is minimal. Given how the game is playing out with so few alien builds, I'd quite like to see that one get refreshed to make the branches more balanced.
  23. Thanks a lot folks! I've not seen it, but perhaps I should. I hadn't made the connection, although I was watching the show when I built it
  24. I hope you enjoy judging, Bob! You've got a lot of it to get through
