Cheap Support

Okay, soldiers, it's time to get to work! Our men are fighting out there on the front lines, but they need your help. No, put down you guns, they won't be necessary. Our soldiers need support, and you need to provide it. Unfourtunately, our war funds are running low, so it needs to be cost-effective.

The goal of the contest is to build a military support vehicle with no more than three hundred (300) pieces. No prizes will be involved, and the winner will be decided via poll, so that everyone can enter. Build one model by June 15.

Hmmm, This sounds easy enough, I'll see if I can get any good ideas.

I'll try thinking of one though.

Sorry, Elffy, but telepathic entries don't count. You're going to have to build one in real life. ;]

It doesn't matter if it isn't that good- PPE? is usually pretty starved for contest action, so every entry counts.

Mines Junk I got bored making mine so I just started doing stuff on here....mines nearly finished I'm going to wait till i have this indiana jones set cause i need some soldiers.

I build a prototype last night, it's still a little blocky, but I have The details ironed out.

I think Storm is going to win cause mines crap.
*Pees in pants*
oooooops

I think I am going to win.

This can be any form of military vehicle, in any time period right?

I know that i won't win cause I'm not that good....

Effort is the root of all greatness.

I know but i'm terrible............terrible..........I'll say it again..........terrible......

So? I promise that if you just keep building things and posting them, you just keep getting better and better!



Stormy

Ok thats really comforting......

It's the only way to get better...

Cmon Elffy, smarten up. Stuff like that shouldn't be posted. I editted it out for you this time...

Yes father Pauly. I shall begin constuction of my masterpeice.

I don't think I will finish mine...cause I'm bored with mine.

Then you need to make it more exciting.

How? by puting a boiling cup of milk in it?

No, by doing something like creating a backstory to your model. That can fuel your mind to create different styles in your vehicle, such as how much time they took in building it, what resources did they have, etc. Different backstories can turn out a totally different creation.

BTW, it's not boiling, it's poison, a joke from one of the RPGs.

O.K.

Just have to count the pieces to make sure it's under the limit!

I also have a question - Do minifigures count? Are they needed? If so, how many, what ranks, and do they have to have exact, matching uniforms?

Whatever you feel like. They aren't required, but if they stick out over the limit, it's okay.
