  1. My interpretation is that Alliance Support Services provide support services by working as mechanics, engineers, communications officers, or anything else that doesn't explicitly fit into the other categories. I would assume that they basically just carry out the logistics jobs that keep the Alliance running on a day to day basis. I hope that this helps!
  2. I would like to contribute a build in this episode if I have time, so please include me in the PM conversation when it happens.
  3. I like your new wing placement and the greebling on the engine segment is well done. Just as a suggestion, even if you don't have the minifig you need, you might want to include your own sigfig in a shot to help judges better appreciate the scale of the ship and how it relates to your character. As for the wing arrangement, in real aircraft, the center of gravity, or point at which the craft will balance on its nose-to-tail axis, is often situated as close as possible to the wing, where lift is generated. In practice, this helps make the aircraft more stable and controllable in flight. While sci-fi ships don't necessarily have to follow this rule, a fair number do (A-wing, X-wing, Y-Wing, etc.) since it generally looks more visually balanced to the eye. I like this one wing theme you have going, keep up the good work!
  4. Nice job! The rooms fit together really well and the broken snowspeeder is a nice touch. The commander scene is funny and I like the printed dress that you added to the white mannequin. Although this doesn't necessarily detract from the build, I couldn't find a photo of your sig fig that is looking at the camera. Seeing as you built a custom snow outfit for the mission, perhaps you just forgot to upload a photo? The rest of the base is fantastic, especially how you incorporated all of the broken bits.
  5. Great build! The SNOT construction in the walls is very nicely done and flows together with the rest of the base quite well. The crack in the wall between the entry and the wampa room is a nice touch, as is the sith Santa. I would second Brickdoctor's idea to add a grooved track to the door, but overall your build is very good.
  6. Great setup! The attention to detail is fantastic and the action of each area is really brought to life. I love how you fluidly integrated the different sections into the same baseplate. The checkered wedges in the door to the princess's quarters and the end-cap-less pipes on the walls are especially neat, as is the lumpy floor. Congratulations on the excellent build!
  7. You did a great job with the different lighting effects you managed to create in each tableau, especially in the shot of the scout trooper descending into the crevasse. Also, the paneling and piping in the hallway wall really brings the base to life in a way that I haven't seen done before. I live in Seattle as well, so maybe we’ll run into each other at BrickCon sometime!
  8. I would like to sign up as a rebel pilot. I can't promise that I will be able to stay active, but I will contribute whenever I have the time. My sigfig: Cheers!
  9. Congratulations, Fox Hound! Your Executor is simply breathtaking and I wish you the best of luck in constructing it in real life. I would recommend following Anio's advice in contacting TLG; it would truly make a beautiful display piece at shows and IMO is well-worthy of representing the company. Again, congratulations on your amazing work. I will look forward to seeing more of your work in the future!

    This is by far and away the best looking tie-bomber, or for that matter, the best looking tie-craft in general that I have seen built. The greebling is excellent without being too distracting and I love how you used the wheel well rim above the cockpit. Congratulations on the great build!
  11. Nice take on a "B-wing"! I do wonder where the official B-wings get their name from, as they bear little resemblance to the letter. I like the computer/mechanical detailing that you added to the underside of the cockpit. It isn't strictly necessary for the design, but is an extra detail that catches your eye. Also, just as an idea for a Mk. II, you could put the bomb segment on it's own spindle and gear it to the cockpit segment so that they rotate in tandem. This isn't to say that your creation isn't perfectly adequate as is or should be "improved"; it was just an alternate concept that came to mind after seeing it. Nice work and I look forward to seeing your E and K wings!
