About this creation
***this model's obsolete now, I've broken it up and rebuilt it bigger and better - check out my other creations to see the second version !***
***update : OK, this model is double obsolete now, as it's replacement has been replaced - check out version 4.0 !***
Hi,
just cuz I wanted to, to make a change from vehicles, I rummaged through my dwindling pile of lego for all the green, brown, blue and light/dark
grey bits I had left, to make some sort of base/campment.
Going by the forest nature I suppose it would be best suited to either Endor, Yavin or Naboo (not that that really matters; it could be in the 2009 Boj-It Imperial Base Showroom for all I know...)
It might not be huge and detailed, but if you saw you much lego I had left you'd agree it's a miracle I've managed to scrape together this much...
To incresa the size I used blue baseplates too; so the base is part water-based, part land-based.
Let's take a closer look....
Here's the main pic of the whole of the base.
The same picture, but from a Lego-Dude-Point-Of-View.
To the base's right is a small clearing where the Imperials park their speeder bikes; we also see the Imperial Gunship has landed there (sorry I run out of baseplates... just imagine the carpet's green :) )
To the left, on top of a big rock protruding from the water, is the communications relay. You might not see very well, but to the ight of the rock on the bottom, a big tube comes out of the rock and goes into the water...
Zooming out, we see a small walkway connected to the rock; joining it to the land; to the right of the photo notice the small enlosure where some scuba gear is stored.
 >
Here, we see en Imperial Nerd working the communications dish, and in front of him through the wall we can see the base's power generator (the various cogs turn but I can't show that in the photo)
A detailed picture of the land-based part of the camp, guarded by two defensive turrets.
It might also be hard to see; but remember the tube coming out of the rock with the satellite dish ? here's the other end of the tube coming out of the water, joining to some sci-fi looking thing connected to the dish controls by a smaller wire.
Here, to make the most use out of the water-based part of the camp; is a platform held by four struts coming out of the water; where the stormtroopers keepa lookout.
To the right of the base, another look at the vehicle park, where a few scout troopers are conversing... I wonder what they're talking about ...
Oh no ! it's the Angry Video Game Scout Trooper with his Game Boy (that's not standard imperial issue :s ...) come to rant about another bad game to his fellow scout troopers ... better leave before he lets loose a random chain of rude words lol !
P.S. If you are looking to buy lego for your creations, I would like to recommend the following Bricklink lego shop ; "About Town, Castle & Train" ( http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=stacey_love )
I personally know the shopholders, and they are very nice, devoted people. They are currently sponsoring 100% of my 1/3 Lamborghini project, providing all of the parts; and have made various other donations to other models I have made.
The store has a wide selection of parts (over 600,000!), at good prices, and offer an exceptional, fast service (no tax or dodgy exchange rates, next day postage, etc). you won't be disappointed !

Infiniment moins "simple" qu'on pourrait le penser à premiere vue. Tout les éléments sont intelligemment disposés. J'aime bien ce que tu a fais sur la partie droite, avec les ailes de vaisseaux et les engrenages derrieres, c'est trés original ! J'adore aussi l'"Imperial Nerd", c'est excellent. Une bien belle base !!!
