KimT Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Now there's less than a week to go before it's too late. The Star Wars Vehicle Contest Build a land-based vehicle that TLG has never produced. It can be from anywhere in the Star Wars Universe or your own imagination, but be sure it looks like it belongs in Star Wars There's 3 different categories, depending on the size of the MOC. A: Small size vehicles Design a vehicle with a 200 piece limit. You must include a background story relating it to the Star Wars universe. Max minifig count is 5. B: Medium size vehicles Design a vehicle with a 201 to 400 piece limit. You must include a background story relating it to the Star Wars universe. Max minifig count is 10. C: Large size vehicles Design a vehicle with at least 401 pieces. You must include a background story relating it to the Star Wars universe. Max minifig count is 25.

Entries must have a background story. 5 pics in entry (front, top, rear, left-side and right-side ) Entries should have a link to picture folder (non-resized pics, close-ups and stuff like that for the rest of us to enjoy) Max picture size for deeplinked pictures is 600x800 pixels No webcam or phonepictures - The pictures must be undisturbed - make a studio, anything but a table with a cat in the background Only one entry per category per member. Feel free to participate in all 3 categories Brick-built minifigs like for example buzz-droids count as 1 minifig. Minifigs and brick-built minifigs don't count as pieces.

This contest has NO scale - build your MOC as you like, be that mid-scale, micro-scale, minifig-scale, UCS or any-scale Land-based includes Walkers, Animals (like Rancor and Banthas), Ships, Hovercrafts like the landspeeder and of course wheel or belt driven vehicles like tanks and trucks When the build time is up, no more entries will be allowed and a vote topic for each category will be made. Post your entries in the 'Watto's Junkyard' sub-forum, giving each each entry it's own topic. The subtitle of the topic must state wether this is a small, medium or large entry. Time to build: Close to a month, the contest will end on: Thursday the 2nd of April 2009 21:00 CET Make sure your background story fits the MOC and make sure the MOC fits the background story. No need to include stormtroopers if it's a Rebel walker. All entries posted until the end date of the contest are considered Works In Progress. All entries not living up to the rules on the end date are disqualified All entries will be indexed - this does not mean they are qualified or 'good' enough All entries will be commented around 1 week before the end date by me, giving guidelines on how to qualify for the vote Want to know more?
