Um can you give me a hand?

by C.J.Cutrone9 on Fri Aug 05, 2011 10:29 am

My entry into the Corps battle challenge and the training challange.

I originally only had the ground and a crashed ARC-170. Then I made the bridge without the big hole. Then I said ok how is the clone going to fail? So I made the whole and everything else fell into place. When I was placing the bridge I realized that I had lost the space for the ARC-170. So I replaced it with a tri-droid. I am very please with how it came out.

Hey General I have orders from Palpatine to kill you.
Can you give me a hand so I can do my job?

Little did ARC-23468934 know that his big mouth would one day be the end of him.

Edit here is version 2.

Ah you’re going to get smoked! Add some detail to the bridge and the EMPTY field.

The veils isn't empty the tri is just in the wrong spot. I had a pit their but now that I think about it it should have been elsewhere.. the bridge I don't see what you mean explain what you mean by add detail.

Try simply making the vig smaller. Get rid of all of that excess space. The rules probably say otherwise, but for the sake of the MOC, just cut it down. Wink

I'll try and add more detail first. If people like that then I will leave it is. But if that doesn't work then I can try and make it smaller.

1. No detail on bridge wall. Just 2 studs wide. No greebles or plating or battle damage..
2. No detail on bridge ground. (SNOT or tile or battle damage)
3. Increase bridge height. Looks like he might fall all of 6 feet. Might break a toe… nail. Embarassed

4. Big empty field.
5. You could move this back to the far right corner, making the field bigger, and therefore allowing for something larger in the empty space.

Bonus items:

Bushes under bridge can't really be seen. Bring them forward if you wish and trying shooting the picture at 3/4 angle it will give you more depth to your shot. Wink

And generally avoid using TLG sets or parts of sets. I'll be using two TLG speeders but I'm building a much more detailed diorama.

Ok well here is how what I can do:

1. I don't have enough tiles and cannot buy any so I can try more damage.
2. I am not to fond of making one thing snot and the rest studed. That and once again I don't have enough tiles. I can try the damage here too.
3. It is A little short I'll fix that.
4. What would I put there besides grass? There are places in SWU where their is just dirt. Maybe not that much but there are large spots of it.
5. Done.

The TLC deal I have tried building my own version but have really failed.

The second one is better. Tile and greeble the bridge. Maybe put some grill pieces or little archers made with cheese pieces. Also on the floor of the bridge you could put some coloured tiles so you because you don't have grey pieces.
Example:

l----------------------------l
l-----------BLUE-------------l
l----------------------------l
l-----------BLUE-------------l
l----------------------------l

Even though you don't have enough tiles, I'm sure you could add more detail in some way to the bridge. It just looks a little too basic. The second version is definately better though. I also feel that the field could use a little more layering as well. But nice work overall.

I only have 5 tiles.. Two 6x6 tiles, One 2x2, and two 1x1s. I lost a LOT when I moved...

The field has bumps pretty much everywhere but there are 3 things that make it seem less.

1. The light.

2. The plants.

3. The bridge.

If I were to remove everything and let you hold it then you could see the bumps and pits that are on it. Try going to my flickr and seeing some of the other photos. They give better views.
