[If anybody has ANY critiques about my build or especially my photography and lighting, PLEASE let me know :) It would be most appreciated. I need to improve on both.]
From left to right: Support unit (sniper); soldier unit; command unit; soldier unit; close combat unit.
All variants on the Landmate Mk2 Assault Version.
The poorness of the photo should serve as a reminder to me that I really, really need to build a much bigger lightbox. Like, one that will actually fit more than two tiny mecha, for example.
I have two unicorn sets, both from my childhood. The one this is based on, and a little blue garage my Grandpa got me. One day I'll own mint versions of them. For now, "Space. I'm in space!"
These ships are for Intercept Orbit, the spaceship version of Mobile Frame Zero.
The Battlecruiser is a cruiser (right around 16 studs long), probably equipped with:
* 1 Yamato Cannon (support range)
* 1 Burst Cannon (direct range)
* 1 hangar (catapult)
* Armor (defense)
The Valkyries are frigates (they're just under 12 studs long)
* Swarm Missiles (Point Defense Range)
* Hangar (catapult)
* Armor (defense)
The Wraiths are Mobile Frame Companies.
The Dropship is the Mobile Frame Ace. Haven't decided what kind

This was a challenge I made for myself: make a microscale Tantive IV using as many pieces as possible from Ambush in Cairo. I'm happy with how it turned out.
A larger mill on the eastern Siccus coast, north of Peregrinus. I built this one first, and then decided to try to minimize the piece count, and so built the smaller mill displayed on Dec 7th.
I do not know when and why I built it, but I decided that it is good enough to put it on public display.
this is not just another microscale suburban street. No. this is inspired by an item in the news some time ago, see BBC News
:-)
Fukuro Corp. worked with the nomadic warriors of the Glalsi people to bring the tiny, tough fighting style to dogfighting. The designers identified an aesthetic redolent of old Earth fancy cars and the Glalsi didn’t object to the design being nicknamed so.
Microscale exploration vessel.
Built for my Iron Builder competition with Bruce Lowell using the dark red fez piece.
Follow me:
Washburn is the US capital city of New Kansas, Kepler System. True to it’s namesake, New Kansas is a fertile farming world from which a wide variety of crops are cultivated and animals raised. Settlements range from small, old fashioned farms to large, mechanised outposts of synchronised machines and technology.
Washburn is the hub for all manner of activity; business, education and pleasure. It is the port by which New Kansas feeds a large proportion of the Core Worlds. The city is home to several of the top biochemical and veterinary colleges of their kind. A giant spaceport sits on the outskirts of the city, big enough to accommodate the larger interplanetary barges for the transfer of crops and livestock. There is also quite the lively nightlife; most of these bars and cantinas centre around the American Cool Revival trend. They feature music and décor reminiscent of American days gone by.
There exists a quiet acrimony the settlers who reside solely within Washburn and the more isolated farmers. The latter consider their city-based fellows stuck-up and pretentious. The former consider the farming population crass and uncultured.
The city is home to the New Kansas Senator, when she is not involved in democratic discussions back on Earth. Although officially neutral during the Pan-Eurasian War, several of the large farmers sold food to the under-siege Coalition population of Kepler II. One side of the story paints the farmers as saving the lives of starving children. The reality was that rich agricultural groups made huge profits breaking a neutrality clause set by the government. The US investigation into the food smuggling found no person or organisation culpable is considered a whitewash by the Coalition.
Used by many organizations, the RF-6's engine was made for ships many times larger. Astral Dynamics, known mostly for its military and exploration ships, took a risk with a light and extremely powerful cargo ship during a troubling financial time. This risk did pay off, though and variants can be seen from the most downtrodden industrial centers to the most luxurious casinos.

A microscale model of my university campus. Read on for more details!

Size: 34 x 102 studs (27 x 81 cm)
Scale: 1:1250
This is so far the most meticulously prepared of my MOCs. I started in April by creating the most recognisable building of AGH and the building of my faculty. Then I kept building the others one by one, making measurements in Google Earth and trying to keep the shape of the campus as accurate as possible.
The next step was to fill the space between buildings with roads and greenery. SNOT (Studs Not On Top) is heavily used here, along with crazy connections with headlight bricks, brackets and small plates. At this stage all was very fragile, but it soon changed. Each fragment of the model had been reassembled completely as I changed things, filled the gaps and applied various corrections.
Hope you'll enjoy it!
Semi-exclusive; there's a lot of back-and-forth along the Marksist border, so kit tends to end up getting spread about.
Not complete, either; most of what I've made has been quite heavy, and there's a deficit of 20- to 45-tonners.
Trying to figure out how to add those little mouseover text box things; they seem to have changed things and it's a bloody nuisance. Say what you will about Mocpages being outdated, but at least Sean's buttons don't move around.
So: left to right, front to back:
First row: Hydra - 55t line/strike, un-named hunter-killer - 25t, Helhound - 80t assault, Culverinier - 80t fire support, Chimera - 65t strike/command/assault.
Second row: World Serpent "Rommel" - 75t line/assault, longer-ranged Hydra variant - 55t line, un-named superheavy - 95t assault, Tempest CA - 80t fire support and a variation to fit captured machines into Coalition doctrine rather than a factory build.
Third row: Lucerne - 60t strike/assault, Sagittarius - 40t strike/fire support, World Serpent "Belisarius" - 75t line, World Serpent "Lee" - 75t line/fire support.
They aren't sorted in any particular way, and the World Serpents are more like tech demonstrators than line machines; really nasty, but too expensive for full production without further research.
I use an out-dated version of LDD, and it looks like the newer one you have to convert files with to make Pov-Ray cooperate doesn't like what I did with the Culverinier's knees. Some pointless edit to the revolver's collision mesh someone made somewhere along the line.
My quick little Architecture-style build for Disneyland's Haunted Mansion! 👻

The front of the Wave complex. For most of the time on public display at Steam and Brick 2014 a set of Christmas lights lite up the windows but the batteries leaked. Sulphuric acid and Lego is not a good mix. Now it lies dark.
Built for the tips and bricks mini contest. www.tipsandbricks.co.uk/post/2020-competition-miniaturize...
Here's another one of those Micro builds I've had around for years and now want to pull apart because I'm bored with them!
This is The Kollective Kommie Kombines' Peoples' Combined Harvester. It doesn't work very well, a bit like communism.
A small, swift missile frigate used by the Galactic Armada for taking down capital ships. While it does have devastating firepower its fatal flaw is its lack of weapons against fast smaller ships like starfighters. You never know when a bold starfighter pilot could send a proton torpedo down this ship's exhaust port...
Not really satisfied with the back end. Oh well.
Just wanted to upload this before I leave on my trip. Bye.
For personal reasons, I haven't built that many MOCs this year. I hope to be more active next year. Happy New Year 2025!
While automated cargo ships and FTL travel are the backbone of the galaxy's economy now, they wouldn't be possible without thousands of survey spacecraft rigorously scanning almost every known part of it. The development of Lane 6 and divisions, which currently carry upwards of 45% of galactic shipping, was the largest peaceful operation in history and the data that the original surveyors generated is still widely used, dozens of cycles later.
The craft shown is a Drenner E-31S, one of the most widely used craft.

A row of contemporary terraced houses. This is the street view but those of you who have seen the WIP progressing know that there is something at the back as well ...
hope you like it.
Loosely modeled on a Liebherr crane I saw on the way to work the other day. I make no claims to accuracy though.
