I just got rickroll'd.

I bought it and had the same concerns, but had absolutely no problems whatsoever. Once it is built it is remarkably sturdy, especially when compared to 6211 Star Destroyer. Plus, the greeblies on the back and top are really awesome.

Just a Clone Battle Pack and a Rebel Trooper Battle Pack. I almost dove for the King's Castle Siege, but I contained myself.

I was having trouble deciding if I should invest in the new Castle line or pick up city again. I think this just made my choice a lot easier *wub* .

Just for reference, you can do this with a bunch of plastic items. I'm into Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars Minis line, and it's a widely discussed practice to put the minis into hot water to shape them. Also of note, over time the plastic generally reverts to its original, molded shape. The length of time it stays in the modified shape is largely dependent on the type of plastic resin used to make said plastic item.

Hahah I like the last one. It's like he is going out of his mind and ripping his hair out. Also, kudos for bringing it outside for natural lighting. It really highlights the color choices. Considering you used a lot of greyscale, this made a huge difference. Overall I really like it, especially the thoraxish area. It looks realistic, like there is a functioning mechanism in it, as opposed to these over humanized robots with exact proportions.

Just for those people asking about printscreens, I will share my knowledge of how to do it with Windows: Hit the printscreen key (It is generally in the area of the "delete" key). It is like hitting the copy function, except it instantly grabs whatever you are looking at, be it desktop, web image, movie screen, etc. Open an image editing program. You can use Photoshop, IRFanview, or even Paint! Just go to edit and paste it as you would any copied data, you can even hit Ctrl+P if you are a shortcut kinda guy like me. You can crop it if you so choose here, add witty dialogue, whatever. Save the image however you see fit, preferably in a manageable file type such as jpeg. Proceed to hosting! Viola!

Awesome thread idea. This is what I'm rockin:

Seems kind of silly to provide a link, but http://www.google.com/ *wacko* And just to spice the post up: Cute of Google to honor LEGO :-P

Really great job! I saw a lot of the Blacksmith Shop legend set in it too, but its really just the tapering roof you did. I love the evil shot too. Did you do an interior for it and/or are you working on one? I looked in the brickshelf gallery and didn't see it. I'd be curious to check that out.

I liked it a lot. I thought it had some great features but was simplistic and not overly detailed. Really seems like an official set. My one gripe was that the cockpit roof wasn't even, it seemed as if the plates were laying unevenly on top of the window, but it seems when you took the cannon off in the modification that afterwards they were resting evenly. I don't know if the cannon impeded it, or if you just pushed them down real good on the studs, but its fixed! In conclusion, me writing this up is a long-winded waste :-) . Great work though!

I unfortunately have this fear of missing sets, so I seldom wait for them to go on sale. This is mostly because I collect Star Wars, and the last three years, most sets haven't been making it to sales. With that said, the best deal I've gotten is when I just saved five dollars on my S@H order about a week ago, hahahah.

You have broken my heart.

Nice! I hope you enjoy the set. I hadn't seen any pictures of the back before, so that was nice. Speaking of, what is that wheel on the back for? Is there technic system for spinning the turret?

Great to have you on board! I look forward to seeing you around.
