Bob De Quatre Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Tags: land vehicle, air vehicle, civil building Bob of Quatrian's log - Julali 2nd 3816 - "I was sent on an escort mission on Freegate, supervised by the new Special Operation management. I need to protect a drilling team, that have to recover some mithril samples, while a new type of defense system is set up: the Anti Aerial Network Tank. I heard it can destroy any target in a 200km radius thanks to a hyper-precise satellite targeting. I have to say I was reluctant to go on mission as I'm worried for Danielle. She seems a bit different since she returned. And one more concern: rumors say Kawashita brought to Andromeda one of their Master Mechanic. I really hope it's not the one I'm thinking of... I need to confirm its identity and maybe talk to Danielle before she learns it..." Drilling Team to mission control. Preparations on site are done, we're ready to drill. What's the status on Protection? Are they ready? The A².N.T takes time to set up, but I'm sure they're doing their best. But don't worry, Bob is covering you in his Sprite fighter. Yep, I'm watching you from above Drilling Team. To all Operation Cold Feets. Protection is in place, waiting for satelitte signal. Satelitte got your signal. Initiating targeting network. Stabilizer legs are deployed. Satelitte signal aquiered. We're ready to intercept any threat! Oh yeah! I'm so impatient to test those cannons on M.A.N.T.I.S. scums! Good to know! We're starting the drilling. Quote

Professor Thaum Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 OK, who's next ??? Someone to post a built right after Bob ? Waiting... Quote
Mr Greeble Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Oh yeah! I'm so impatient to test those cannons on M.A.N.T.I.S. scums! Hey now... Just because you have a completely amazing walker-ship, doesn't mean you can point the incredible laser cannons at us. (Also, scum? Where is our Public Relations sector? ) Quote
Big Sal Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Well, at least this post will be easy to score I don't even know where to start with the praise... Quote

Professor Thaum Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Could we have other pics of the drilling vehicle ? Quote
SpacerSteve Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 This is an amazing build. It is really too bad that scoring stops at 7. Some top notch builds all around but I really like the hardsuit. I also like how you used the Ice Planet 2002 skies. Seems very appropriate. Quote

I built it for this entry, but since I was lacking some Octan minifigs and it was still standing there, I reused it. Quote
Kodan Black Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Whoa, it is all so amazing. I like the consistent look and feel of all the various vehicles and the drilling machine really stands out. I need to include more technic gearing when I do drill bits... The one thing that kind of stands out as not really fitting, for me, is the skull on the fighter. It seems a bit out of place, especially given the "Sprite" name. I adore the rest of the fighter, just that one little bit nags at me. Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) This is just such an incredible compilation of truly wonderfully conceived and executed pieces of art. Wow. Once again, Bob, you have created a masterpiece. The focal A2NT on its own may have been a 7 in and of itself... but then you added more and more and more. :oh2: The control room is pretty awesome. I live how the simple and clean build conveys the feeling that it's part of something larger than it actually is. Also it's beautiful. That tiling technique is always wonderful. The sprite is sweet! Looks like quite the quick fighter! I like the "neck" portion with the white 1-1 round tiles. Nice repetition there. I agree with Kodan that the Baraka head may be a little out of place on a ship called "Sprite". Might have better been called the "Shark", or "Dragonfly". The digger is sweet. Very well shaped. Love the orb shaped cockpit. Even the satellite is great! And the pictures and editing are exquisite! Stupendous work! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Edited July 7, 2016 by Dannylonglegs Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted July 10, 2016 Author Posted July 10, 2016 Thanks I agree with Kodan that the Baraka head may be a little out of place on a ship called "Sprite". Maybe... I stumbled on that part by chance on Saturday morning. I already had taken the pictures of the Sprite, but modified it anyway... Maybe not the best choice, but I like it. I wanted to add a funny quote, saying the designer of the ship went too far by incorporating the skull of a weird animal. Finally better pictures of the A².N.T.

David FNJ Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Wow, these are incredible! Each of the vehicles is intricately detailed, and have incredible shaping! Awesome job! Quote
Zaael Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 This is awesome Bob! I really like all the vehicles, but the A2.N.T. is my favorarite. Those cannons, beautiful! Quote
Lady K Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Wow! Simply awesome on all levels! I really like the way you incorporated the skull on the Sprite, it gives a fun but serious feel to the ship. So many details on all the vehicles, very well done! Quote
LordDan Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 This is amazing! I love how all the vehicles feel very unique and have such great detail! Also I just love the A2NT. A spacecraft shaped like an ant sound strange in concept, but you made it look so fantastic! Quote
