Captain Braunsfeld Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Humans find a strange obelisk on the Moon: They have no idea where it came from... Now secret footage of what happened a few weeks earlier has been found: C&C Welcome Quote
Littleworlds Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 This explains it all! Or... Well, at least sort of Very good looking MOC. Like it jumped right out of the movie Quote
KlodsBrik Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Now we know where the phrase "mooning" originated from. Don´t close your eyes till this picture have left your mind. Might burn some nasty images onto your eyeballs. Quote

Like it jumped right out of the movie Thanks! Yeah, I know. It actually creates more questions. (E.g. why are monkeys able to breathe when there is not atmosphere, etc.) On 15.1.2017 at 8:00 PM, KlodsBrik said: Now we know where the phrase "mooning" originated from.

Loves Houses Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Ha, I knew it, I knew it all along, of course - It was the monkeys. Nice combination of 2001 theme and planet of apes - intended? Quote

The lights are standard TLG and the base plates are the "good old" space baseplates. Quote

Ow, I didn't know TLG made those lights, nice. ^^ The baseplates almost looked Tan to me, that's why I thought they where new/re-issued ones. Quote

Ok, I get where you're coming from. To mimic how things look like on the moon I went for strong contrasts and bright lights (+ shadows). So the baseplates are reflecting the light, but they are still standard "grey". Quote
goalieboy82 Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Funny thing about the movie, we were on the moon then before we had landed on the moon. Quote
Patgeo Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Very nice creation! It has a lot of fun, when you know the story from behind the scenes! Quote

Thanks I probably should add some monkey-spacecraft to show how they got there. (But they don't seem to need space suits anyway, so it is all probably done by magic) 19 hours ago, goalieboy82 said: music to go with the set: Fine addition - thanks. Only problem: now everybody sees the differences between my scene and the original Quote
