About this creation

Thanks to the incident a few days back regarding the Asi-Geedah and a group of un-identified hostiles, the MARDETCOM has choosen to build a listening post beyond our perimeter. Equipped with transmitting antennae and sensors, it should give us an indication as to what's out there. Plus, it's easily noticeable during the night due to illuminated segments. Hopefully this will draw in some enemies, and we'll defeat them on familiar turf. Hopefully. (Another Final Countdown MOC.)

It really glows in the dark!

The minifig hand at the back is the transmitting antenna, there's a sensor tower beside the bunker, and a rotating sensor dish (square) mounted on the roof.

Forth wall: Well, I don't foray into microscale often, and when I do it's usually larger than this. However, the specs called for a 6x6, and that's what I built. It turned out to be a really enjoyable challenge, and I have a couple of layers of SNOT offsets under the bunker that were kind of tricky at such a scale. Thanks for stopping by, and we might just get off Neugarten alive!

The last few days have been tough ones for our intrepid band of survivors, so its good to see us getting back on track with this excellent listening post. You achieved a very nice compact design, and your placement of the GITD parts was perfect. Although there is still time left, you may have saved us in terms of this challenge. Great work.

Brilliant sensor tower. The sloped grill piece gives it more details in this scale. Very nice!

Quite a nice little microscale. The SNOT is quite well done, and the hand is well incorporated. Also, I like the color choice. Overall, great MOC. ~RORY

Quoting David Roberts Wow! So much detail in such a small space. Looks great too. A blend of desert building and hi-tech.

Thanks!

Thanks, I couldn't just stand by and let all these hostiles walk over us. Maybe, just maybe, we'll have enough warning to form a defence if they return.
