You could just leave the pics alone. I am the one judging and they loaded fine for me.

Josh

Edit: Never mind, I see you got them changed.

My entry Jungle Surprise:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=176431

The Lions vs. Ka Lu and their allies.

The Ka Lu are a formidable jungle tribe in the southern regions in my castle story world. They are cannibals and enslave other tribes to fight with them in battle. You may notice the Jar-jar heads on the Ka Lu. These heads are from a deer-like creature and worn as a representation of their manhood and warrior prowess (I found a use for those darn things!!!). Also, I wanted to find a use for dobby's, jar jar, and the SW pig men torsos. So this would increase my castle factions with non-castle torsos.

The Lions in this scene are in the unfortunate position to be ambushed during an extended expedition to seek allies for the Lions-Mosae war.

This project was completed passively over the span of about two weeks. My brother pitched in with ideas and some piecing together of the scenery. Photographing took about two or three days, as I had to reposition all of the figures for about twelve or so different stages of action. Hopefully the pictures you see in the gallery are in chronological order so you can see how events unfolded. 2 pages worth. Enjoy

Very cool, Stone Goblin.

Man, it's really getting down the wire. I don't know why I bother. My entry is crap compared to half of your's.

Bravo Goblin!

Man, it's really getting down the wire.

You said it!!

I'm very nervous about not being able to finish in time, though I think my entry does have a chance to rival Goblins' work!

Pulling long hours on this and I'm getting worn out, but it sure is fun. Good luck Lord of the Lego, and to everyone else during this crunch time!

I really like the jungle ambush Stone Goblin, especially the savages. They're pretty cool, I like the use of Jar Jar heads. And I like the different "groups" of savages, like savages, jar jar torsos, gammorean guard torsos, etc.
When does the contest end, Josh? I was just wondering, because I'm getting a BL order in a few days...

AWSOME JOB stone goblin.It puts my entry to shame

I never thought about doing a jungle fight scene, great idea!

Excellent job Stone Goblin! That's a fantastic battle.

Hey everybody! Do you know what time it is? Time for my entry!

"Wait a second" you might be saying because there is no link. Why is there no link? Because there is nothing. After making sure I have a working camera, proper lighting and have secured the scene to a firm base, I thought I was safe. But a relative whose name shall never again be uttered it my presence, tripped and fell into it.

I won't go into the grisly details, but to put it in short, of a dozen attempts to enter a contest, I have been slapped in the face almost every time...

I like Stone Goblin's and all the others since my last post in this thread. They are all well built.

I can sympathize with you, one of my younger cousins once came over to my house and wrecked an awesome space base...
