Flare Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 This was built for my new theme, Groovepunk. Basically it is futuristic hippies in the 23rd century. Very interesting, I know. Plus... I'm posting this MOC in celebration of my 1000th post! Aliens can be hippies too! Thanks for viewing! Quote
TheWarden Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Happy 1K posts! Hippies, ya. I was wondering myself "how many colors becomes too many?" in my last MOC, and you are definitely exploring that here. I like the overall shape, and the rear works for me, but that is a lot of colors! Perhaps a more selective, but still more than normal, color palette (different for each MOC?) could be explored. Like warm reds, cool greys, + accent color. Or RGB (red, green, blue) + white. Or pastel palette to give off a hippy vibe. But haven't seen the whole of your theme yet, so this is mostly conjecture. Very intriguing though and will wait for more. Quote
Giovanne Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Very cool, this starship of the futuristic hippies of the 23rd century , the shape of the starship also is good Quote

Yes, I didn't post my first groovepunk MOC (maybe I will later), but I agree I think I used a few too many colors on this, but I felt like it being a little crazy and random looking Thanks very much. Very cool, this starship of the futuristic hippies of the 23rd century , the shape of the starship also is good Thanks, Giovanne! Quote
Plastemaurer Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Very .. colorful, maybe a bit too much. But I like the overall shape of the ship. Looks a bit like a flower to me. Hmm, Flower Power... PM Quote

The Lego Man! Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Wow this ship is just all around awesome! I just love how much color in this model and the flower in the front is cool too. P.S. Enjoy your counthood! Quote
Henchmen4Hire Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 IT SEARS MY RETINASSSSS!!! Lol, awesome, I like that all the hippies are squid people in the future xD Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Very nice spaceship Flare! Strangely enough, I like the candy colors and it looks like a perfect fit for your Squidman sigfig. Impressive crisp-clear photos too, great job! Quote
tulatin Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Very nice spaceship Flare! Strangely enough, I like the candy colors and it looks like a perfect fit for your Squidman sigfig. Impressive crisp-clear photos too, great job! Despite the wall of colors, I don't find it displeasing. Well that, and it shares a color pallet with 939-era ECS motherboards, which I'm rather fond of (http://www.pcplanetsystems.com/abc/images/big/ecsmobo6big.gif) Quote
Tobbe Arnesson Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Nice starfish, err, starship! Joke aside, kinda arachnid-looking and a color palette only 23rd-century 'shrooms can let you appreciate. Far out! Quote

Davey Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 That is a lot of color, but I'm really drawn to both the color and the design. It does have a bit of a flower look to it and I think that gives it a more organic feel and seems to fit Admiral Captain Commando Squidtron quite well. I just wonder how long until he gets pulled over by the Space Police for driving this hoopty. -Davey Quote

noname Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Do I really have to repeat my opinion about it again? I already did it twice... Quote
Leo-J Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 It catches attention even when it does not want to. Very cool! Quote
jonwil Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Nice MOC, the colors look great. I do wonder how well weed would grow in a low-g environment though :P Quote

Jargo Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Duuuuude psychadelia rocks! Don't change a thing. Let the sunshine in, dazzle the worlds of your imagination with freedom, peace and love dude. Transcend the box and go with the flow of your creative juices. Let everything be just as it is and no man beast or force interfere or oppress. Lead the way and forge a new pathway to the fountain of universal enlightenment and never follow the herd for the herd will get stuck in a rut but your awesomeness will shine like a billion stars. Glittering and burning like a beacon to lost souls and those who fell by the wayside dude. Build more awesomeness like this dude. Let the colours explode in a spectrum orgasm. Quote
