Thanks! The camera quality was pretty decent for a camera from 2004.

I've always wanted to build my own LEGO theme with different sized "sets" but I haven't found the time. Perhaps someday...?

Interesting use of the shovels as a larger mining device.

Thanks! ^^

I had a lot of those shovels lying around, so I thought they could be of use when building a mining vehicle.

How Classic Space of this! Cute little 'bots as well.

Thanks! I was very much inspired by the great Space sets of old. I loved it when the sets came with little helper-bots, so I tried to replicate that.

I would definitely like to return to building sci-fi creations soon. There are projects that I should finish someday, perhaps by the end of this year?

units look all awesome
but use some outside sand background next time - make it look more "real"

Thanks!

I actually wanted to photograph this moc in the snow/ice, but there is no snow right now (perhaps a re-take later? ) I admit I was in a hurry to post this...

Plus some young cousins are coming over soon , and I know they love destroying things...

But yeah. The realism factor would make it much more awesome!

Is it dial-up by any chance? That's what I'm on currently...

no, im not talking about that ... it is the thing i wanna do this time soon [work for many hours at an architecture office kind of takes the best of me]
so - with my next holiday i wanna do it
it is ... with help of Lego System bricks to recreate what Command & Conq. Tiberium Kane's Wrath has:
the Nod Redeemer and the Gdi Marv ... would insert pictures but i got now low internet so feel free to google
by the way - what you did reminds me of The Thing [1982]

Those would be pretty cool to build...

I'm glad you like my spontaneous creation so much!

how can i not? i may be 28 but for me, Lego ain't a toy, it is a world, a building concept of thinking, a structure of studies

Well said, sir. I must remember that the next time I confront someone who doesn't believe in the awesomeness of the Lego brick...

well haters gonna hate, they prob. do not see that lego bricks bound so good
the pieces join so fine it is like a module that came from an alien thinking
something that can build almost any kind of world

This moc makes me feel as if that's how Ice Planet 2002 sets should have been colored.

Thanks Max!

I've always thought that Ice Planet 2002 sets were pretty sharp as they were. The blue, white, and clear phosphorous orange pieces suited each other very well. 

Perhaps my moc is more suited to an ice planet because it is more camouflaged?

Welcome and yes that's what I meant, looks more camouflaged for the theme.
