MKJoshA Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 "What's life like living on-the-run and under-the-radar you ask? Well you tell me. You've been a part of this rebellion for longer than I have." My friend didn't say anything in response. I guess we were both pretty tired after training on Nar Eurbrikka for a few weeks. Our orders came in yesterday that we were to head to Corellia, my home planet, and leave from there for some backwater gas mining station. We hired passage in a large freighter that was on it's way to the station. The ship is rusty, another side effect of gas, but it's well kept on the inside. The captain hasn't said much. I guess you get used to silence when your only company is a barrel of Bespin gas. After everything that happened on Corellia I don't mind the silence all that much either. It gives me time to think. Only a few more hours till we reach the station. I wonder when the next time I run into Nathan will be... OoC: [Please judge these two pictures separately as two different free builds. If that's breaking a rule of some sort just let me know, I'm new to this concept like many of us here.] Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I don't think it would be harmful for those to be judged as separate MOCs. You can't take advantage of the system that way, since there is the limit on free builds per episode. The micro freighter is excellent! it has a very rusty, dirty, hired look to it, but it avoids looking post-apoc-ish or steampunk-ish. Also reminds me of a flying boat, which seems fitting as a hired ship out of a swamp planet. Your story is well-done, too, leading into your character's experience in Episode I. Quote
Esurient Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Nice freighter! Nice use of Sarlacc's parts! Quote
Tariq j Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Cool build! I like the freighter and the sarlacc parts Quote
TenorPenny Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 The ship is terrific. I like it's rusty, rough-and-ready look. Quote
Captain Settle Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Good freighter, it look very old and ruined. Quote
Nom Carver Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 You will find Bespin less boring than you expected . Quote

Thanks for the positive feedback. Detail question, does my free-build counter set back to 4 now since I submitted these before the contest started or do they count towards the 4 between this episode and the next? Thanks for the feedback from everyone else! I'm glad the rusty look came off so well. Quote

The free build counter resets when an episode ends. You've got two judged free build opportunities left to use before the end of Episode I. Quote
MKJoshA Posted August 8, 2013 Author Posted August 8, 2013 The free build counter resets when an episode ends. You've got two judged free build opportunities left to use before the end of Episode I. Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I was under the impression that we got 4 free builds before Episode 1 started and then 4 after it started. Since that's not the case can I only have the micro-ship judged? I'd rather save my other free builds for other things than a boring interior of a ship. I just threw that together to try to take advantage of the non-existent pre-game free builds. Quote

Shadows of Nar Eurbrikka Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Judges have awarded you 4 XP! Your character's stats will be updated shortly. Quote
MstrOfPppts Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 I quite like this mini version of ship and as said before, despite a strange color scheme it still looks quite Star Warish and not like it's from the steampunk era. My favorite part is the sticking out antennas. The real challange for you now should be to build it in the minifig scale for your future use in episodes! As for the interior ... the walls look too plain and could use some decoration, but I see what you did there, greedy Rebel scum Quote

I would have made it more interesting except I was trying to hit that imaginary deadline. Quote
Evolved Turtle Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 A very unique freighter! I love the color scheme. Quote
