  1. I sure love the Blacktron color scheme
  2. Practice makes perfect Impressive fleet you have there!
  3. Thanks . It's untraditional runway is probably one of the reasons it's pretty famous. That and the spectacular view!
  4. You're going to have to ask LEGO that. I guess it wasn't selling good enough? Or they wanted to replace it with something else, who knows.
  5. Thank you . It's more fun to pick some difficult source material when building architecture style Thanks! It took me a long time and a lot of frustration to get all those details right. It's all worth it in the end though!
  6. Thanks everyone . It's my first time building something like this, glad you like it. Gotta have some Fabulanders to bring cuteness into wild space racing Fabulanders can do anything The more angles the better! Frog fu! The crow bars started as a way to attach the cockpit to the racer, but they ended up adding to the aesthetic as well. Fabulevel!
  7. After travelling to space, the Fabulanders discovered GARC and quickly set out to build their own racer. Sponsored by local Fabuland salesmen, the racer is built and piloted by the Albatros brothers. Pilot flying in to pick up his navigator
  8. Light old blue grey! - I suggested a new name for a not so old grey grey GREY!!! Rufus seems to be the most recent possible perpetrator on my profile
  9. You should have thought of that sooner Wait... I have lots of stuff to finish building too
  10. Congratulations to the very worthy winners
  11. I see the real one every day though
  12. Blame upper management!
  13. Dfenz, your list of missing and extras sounds suspiciously identical to mine . I wonder if there has been some math errors somewhere...
  14. Finished mine now, it looks awesome But unfortunetaly, there were some more missing parts here and there for me too, luckily I could just scavenge everything from ace's kit What I liked the most about the instructions was that they were kind of challenging to follow, with a lot happening in each step, just like in the old days And a few hilarious steps with bricks floating in mid-air, or bricks that had to suddenly appear in between other bricks
  15. Thanks I'm not super happy with the waterfall yet myself, but from a distance it looks pretty ok... As much as my ego likes to be called a genius , I cannot take credit for this technique. I originally saw it on some perfect geodesic dome trees in someone's flickr stream (I can't remember where or who anymore...), but I since adapted it to less perfect shapes, for a more natural look. Good luck with your Japanese garden . This flower technique is really perfect for Japanese flowery gardens (and that's what I used it for the first time as well )
  16. Oh no! Some might want to take their own photos anyway, to get the model photographed the way they want . But maybe those who want to use the photos taken at the event can ask for them, and then make their own post? I think it would be silly if one person had to make all the posts.
  17. That's a lot of zeros...
  18. Alright, since you're asking so nicely (who needs sleep anyway )
  19. I linked to wikipedia, isn't that enough?
  20. Thanks The tile is engraved. There's a guy in my LUG that has an engraving machine, and he made it for me. Thank you! Fiddly is an understatement .
  21. And posted! http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=95529
  22. Well that explains a lot He remembered that about 40 minutes after we had left, and said something like "crap"
  23. Holmenkollbakken is the most famous ski jump in Norway, and also one of the most famous and visited landmarks and tourist attractions in this country (possibly even the most famous ski jump in the world). It's situated on top of Holmenkollen, which is a hill in Oslo, and it's very close to where I grew up, and I have also recently moved back to this area. From the top of the hill there's a great view over the city of Oslo, and there's also a ski museum underneath the ski jump. The ski jump dates back to 1892, but has been changed/rebuilt 19 times. The last rebuild was in 2011 for the Nordic World Ski Championship. My model is based on this newest edition. For more background story, see wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia....olmenkollbakken This model won me a third prize in the architecture competition at the recently held Eurobricks event in Billund. A big thank you to everyone that voted for it This is actually the third time I have made a ski jump in Lego inspired by Holmenkollbakken, but it's the first time I've tried to be true to the proportions and build it in a proper scale. A couple of pictures of the real ski jump:
  24. What, they didn't put you in the trunk and bring you back to UK so you couldn't escape coming to Windsor?
