ZCerberus Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 The Elementals have reached Avalonia!! Be sure to check out the youtube video in the thread for a good overview! I had to get this up today as my schedule will stop me from getting it up later this week. Remember the deadline is fast approaching! Let's score some big points for Avalonia!

By the way can you edit your sigfig ? Or do you have to kill him? I hope to enter Avalonia
PenPlays Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Great news Avalonians! I will be entering Challenge IV, or at least a Free build if I don't make it in time. This will be my first MOC here on GOH. Very excited!
Legonardo Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) Great news Avalonians! I will be entering Challenge IV, or at least a Free build if I don't make it in time. This will be my first MOC here on GOH. Very excited! Looking forward to it! Also Lord High Chief of Agriculture:Farming is an important aspect of Avalonia's daily life. Build a farming scene to achieve this title. My challenge 4 kind of suits this, if it is NA then I will build another, but I do want to try out some other things now (my next build will be magical and mystic-isle like) Edited August 3, 2012 by Legonardo Davidy
de Gothia Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 My challenge is up If I had more time I could redo the Elemental, but I pretty happy with it, even though it looks like an Islanders statue!
ZCerberus Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Great job guys! Penkid, MikeyB and Rolli all still to come!! Any others?
soccerkid6 Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Great job guys! Penkid, MikeyB and Rolli all still to come!! Any others? I think this challenge will have the least entries Avalonia looks like it will have the most entries by far (7?), then Mitgardia (4 I'm pretty sure), Kaliphlin (2 maybe more), and Nocturnus (2 most likely). Which would be a total of only 16 entries, there were 20 for the commerce challenge plus 2 that didn't make the deadline

Which would be a total of only 16 entries, there were 20 for the commerce challenge plus 2 that didn't make the deadline I think the reason for this is because you asked for something too special. I know the goal is to make people improve their building skill, but building 1-2 nice buildings, an elemental and a microscale background is really a huge task. Me personally didn't enter the contest because as you might already know I don't tear down my MOC's since they are going to be shown in the Woodward diorama. I would have loved to build something like a watchtower or an embassy. You know something I can integrate in my project later. But I really didn't want to invest into bricks for an elemental I won't use later. I really hope the next challenge will be less special.

Which would be a total of only 16 entries, there were 20 for the commerce challenge plus 2 that didn't make the deadline For every challenge so far, there have been a large number of last minute entries. I think we will see quite a few more yet. It does makes sense that the further out we go, the less entries we will have for each challenge. I for one, will not have time to post my entry until tomorrow.
Captain Settle Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 I won't be entering as I don't have enough of the appropriate pieces. I won't be posting any MOC's for a while actually as I am rearranging my Lego room so I won't be able to bricklink anything until I've finished.
MikeyB Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 I finished up mine today but wont be able to take photos until Sunday likely. I do need to tweak my micro scale a bit but that shouldn't take too long.

I was counting everyone who had said they would make entries, not just the finished ones. Since then though Kaliphlin has had 3(I think?) more entries/people saying they are entering, and you for Avalonia. I think on average the builds are the best quality yet though
ZCerberus Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I for one, will not have time to post my entry until tomorrow. That's right!! Rogue has an entry too!! I have high hopes for us for sure!

I feel like people have less time in the summer - partially the good weather and probably out-of-school type vacations. One of the reasons networks used to always show repeats in the summer was because it was the lowest time for ratings... anyway, for some reason I find I have less time for anything - leisure or work, I am a professor and my load actually went way up this summer! Which is totally abnormal for my profession.

Which is totally abnormal for my profession. Less time? I've not only had the time to build all sets that I have purchased this Summer, but I also have had time to sort my entire collection by part, and doing other un-Lego related activities. I also have been working on my challenge IV MOC for the past three days. It's not done yet, but it is really looking good. Hoping My nearest Lego store has green plates (any will do) and that I get the entry in on time. Cross your fingers.
Angeli Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Legonardo ;) great idea for the tree (read: if we ever invade your lands we will not burn it. There :) And thay say that Drow do not have a hart :))
Jason Cicchini Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 My entry for the fourth challenge, "Chaos at Chamber's Pass" is finally up here! Phew! That was a close one!

Phew! That was a close one! Great! thats 5 entries from us so far, I believe Rolli and Rogueang are also entering so thats 7 from us!
Zach Mills Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Hey guys. I haven't been active building for Avalonia recently, and I feel like I owe you an explanation. One of the whole reasons for joining GoH was to improve my castle building, and I am trying to do so without the parts selection to handle it. I'm working on a building right now, that I believe will be the best MOC I have ever created when it is done. However, I don't have the Dark Brown tiles or plates I need to finish it. Now, because I am going to Japan next year for a school trip, I am not spending any money on Lego. However, I've been working on finding someone on Flickr that would be willing to trade me the parts I need. I believe I have found someone, and so hopefully, I will have them soon, and will be able to continue building. In the mean time, I'll just have to continue planning new things, and looking at all of your awesome work, for things I could try when I am able to land my hands on the pieces. Thanks everyone!
PenPlays Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Great! thats 5 entries from us so far, I believe Rolli and Rogueang are also entering so thats 7 from us! Ahem... Possibly 8... Possibly.
MikeyB Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Ahem... Possibly 8... Possibly. Me me me. build is done just need to take photos this afternoon and post them tonight! Hope my internet doesn't go out or something!
