About this creation
So I attended my first LEGOCon this past weekend and had a blast! Got to mess around with the new Pet Shop modular building, make new friends and see some amazing displays! I ended up winning best space layout for the show, and will have some photos of my set-up in an upcoming issue of Brick Jouranl.
My display was a Colonial Airbase, my new SHIP, and several other models (old and new). Some of these you may recognize, but many are new and will be getting their own 'feature' post as soon as I unpack, sort, rebuild, and have time for photographing and editing. Hope you guys enjoy the photos, I really tried to give the Air Base a realistic chaotic feel with lots of details and goings on.
The SHIP (UCNC SF-273 'Pilum' Sector Patrol Ship) is 154 studs long, and has a full interior with two decks, I'll be getting some detailed photos up as soon as I can. Thanks again!

Wow man, that is just a KILLER layout! Congrats on the win! Happy to see you had fun at your first convention. There's really nothing like the convention atmosphere is there? Hope you can make it to BrickWorld someday! Oh, and I can't WAIT to see the detail pics of that SHIP when you post em! Nice one! ~ Chris.
Thanks man! It was alot of fun, I'd love to make it to BrickWorld but I'll be in the SC highway patrol academy for the next 5 months. I'm going to try and get the SHIP posted before the only days without PT are saturdays. |

Incredible. There's no doubt in my mind as to how you won that prize. Congratulations! Will you be at BW 2011 in Chicago?
I'd love to be at BrickWorld, but the SCHP academy will begin soon, and if everything works out I'll be down there for several months... maybe next year!

Oh snap! This thing is absolutely awesome I love these ships! Wow packed with sooooo many details I love those palm tree things on the side. what are they made from?
Thanks man! The 'Blade Trees' are made from inverted palm tree pieces, then a stack of 2x2 dish, four sided 1x1 brick, 3x3 dish, white wheel hub, 2x2 dish (then the red gills and white tooth/barbs). My favorite 'alien' plant design so far.

I was actually at Brickmagic this week, and I saw this display and loved it! I wanted to meet you and commend you, but I never got the chance. Anyways, great work!
Hey! Yeah I saw your table there too, I instantly recognized the AMP suit! You had some great builds man, congrats on the judges choice award for your rexes!

the front of that base looks like an elephant from halo...
Yeah, I just googled that vehicle and the front window does have a resemblance.

I was greatly inspired by your creation when I visited it at BrickMagic, and took many photos. And though it is only a minor piece of a much bigger display, (being a Mass Effect fan) I really liked the Mako.
Overall, excellent display! |

My first LEGO show so I didn't really know what to expect, but it was great! Winning best Space was a suprise, but put a smile on my face the rest of day. |

AWESOME work! I'm sure many were impressed by this and congrats on the win. I'd love to see some detail shots of those mechs/hardsuits some time.
Thanks! Yeah I'll be getting some post up for the Phalanx soon, I've got several variations so I'll probably do something like two per post to spread them out a bit. |
