Is 24x40 ok? That's a total of 960 squarestuds (ok that sounds weird) as opposed to 1024 from 32x32..

Well...........Yeah, I suppose so. Really, the only reason I have the restriction is so that people try harder to increase the quality of the creation. I am considering removing that rule next year.

Certainly. I must remember to add that to the rules.

Great job to everybody that has entered so far. There are some truely great creations here. I hope that we get twice as many before the deadline.

I need to take better photographs I know, but in the meantime (and as a safety measure in case something goes wrong as it most often does

) here are some slightly blurry pics..

Deeplink One

Deeplink Two

Deeplink Three

Deeplink Four

Oh well, you got to admit that the red velvet is classy at least

Great work, Maedhros, & good luck!

Very interesting Maedhros. A question if I may? How big, roughly, should a minifigure be in comparison to the creation? I'm asking in order to get a better understanding of the creation, so, when the time comes, I will judge it better.

Well, it would be tiny

Think of the bridge as 15 studs wide or so..

And here be some slightly better pics:

By the way this is going to be the Citadel of Troy with Priam's tower up top when i'm done with the minifig version.

Maybe I can dig myself out from a few metric tons of homework to actually enter this thing.

by **shadowknight94** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 7:45 pm

I might be able to come up with something and enter soon, I hope.

by **Asterios** » Thu Oct 11, 2007 5:13 pm

Entry number 2 from DARKspawn (you have to worry when people refer to themselves in the third person)

Micro Fortress

DARKspawn, that Micro Fortress is fantastic. I think I even like it better than some of your fig scale stuff.
