MOC: WIP Military Contest Entry

Pic is Link.

I had an idea about a Mafioso becoming a war hero due to his *ahem* "experience." I want to title it something like "Sometimes the Worst become the Best."

I dunno, it's a work in progress, as you can tell. I love those suits. The scene can flip open on hinges to show both sides at once.

The scene also displays for the first time my new Carbine and M1928A1 Thompson.
(I still need to update the M1928 in the gangster scene)

C&CC are VERY welcomed.

I finished up the bar today - What do you think?



Haven't done much with the other side, but I thought I'd get this part done while I had the free time. Took me forever to find all of those dark bley 1x2 tiles...

The letters are nonpermanent rub-on letters, availiable at any craft store near you. Works pretty well, eh? Can get'em nice and neat or worn like I did here.

That's also a new sig figgie.

Nice Job, I like it. But it will have to compeate with my post apoc urban battlefield

You should try checkering 1x1 trans green and 1x1 trans red pieces to make a more bar-reminiscent window.

Could you find a photo of what you're suggesting? I don't think I really get what you're saying.

I'm also going to take out the shutters on the windows, and try to make the sign out of SNOT'd bricks.

Erm, I'm not sure if anyone has done it before.

Well, not LEGO, but a real life picture of what you're talking about.

I've also worked a bit on the bunker, it's looking good. I'll get pictures up whenever I can.

The latesest version of my Viggy.

C&CC appreciated.

This is looking good. I remember those bunkers from Frontline. I don't suppose you could make them look any grittier? You should really crank up the atmosphere on these things.

Yea, thats why it's STILL only a WIP. I need need to add tons of blood for the Mafia scene, but I'm not sure what to do yet with the bunker. Any ideas? A complication is that the whole front of the bunker is SNOT, so I'll have to work around that...

Try just making the bunker look dirty. Mix in some grey or bley (whichever one you're not using), maybe some dk. gey/bley, a few bullet chips/holes and whatnot, the whole shebang. Shebang is a weird expression. It sounds rather implicative.
Er, anyway.

Thanks for the tips, I'm kinda pressed for time now, I'll see what I can do.

Also, I was able to get a bunch on 1x1 dk grey tiles from one of the new Indy sets, so the bricks are now all in place, no missing ones now!
