Ross Fisher Posted September 20, 2020 Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) *Your entry has earned 6 XP (x2 for limited challenge)* And then suddenly I started to see those bikes everywhere. Honestly, the shadowlands of Kashyyyk? Swoop bikes! How? Why? I'll never know. I think we can all agree; swooping is bad. The hollowed tree trunk is made with caterpillar treads and technic pins. It was a massive pain to get it to lean in the right direction. Hopefully it looks alright. Edited September 24, 2020 by goatman461 Quote
marvelBoy123 Posted September 20, 2020 Posted September 20, 2020 Really like the tree trunk - looks great! Quote
Denal31 Posted September 20, 2020 Posted September 20, 2020 Nice bike designs! Is the title a quote from DA: Origins? Quote

Darth Bjorn Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 The trunk is a brilliant idea, but I'm not too sure about the execution. I think it would have worked better with several smaller pieces and long tiles. Your colorful swoop gang is a welcome change to my gray imperial days... :D Not sure how they're related to the Mando's? Quote
JShortForJay Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Nice colourful aliens and neat bikes! I'm always interested to see what you'll do next with big tree terrain. Quote

I really appreciate you elaborating on your process, because otherwise using big pieces in that fashion could come off as a 'short-cut' to get the effect you want. I think that's a general thing. Using big lego pieces can easily be perceived as the 'easy way'... Even though it is not in your case... Quote
MKJoshA Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Honestly, I wouldn't have known that was a tree unless you had told me. I totally see it after I know, but I think you should have traded some of the big panels for smaller pieces to get better angles. Quote
