The BrikWars Forums

Hmmm... I'm torn on this one. Theme: 7 They're coherent, just looks a little odd? I mean, it works? Substance: 7 I love that you used Friends figures in this faction - not a huge fan of the minidolls, but maybe if they saw more use like this... I have an issue with the walker though. Now, I like wal...

Jaffa: Yep, seen these guys before, definitely legacy. Theme: 7. Yeah, they have a coherency, just kind of blah to me. Might just be me though. Substance: 6 I don't know, it works, but something about this doesn't sit right with me. I know the Jaffa are traditionally shaven, and while the hovertank ...

Frums... ... ... someone's been reading Terry Pratchett. Those are CLEARLY Nag Mac Feegles but taller. :mrgreen: Theme: 8 Their armor is coherent, they look like a coherent force despite being different species. Substance: 9 I love that mortar. Small tank with a big-big-big mortar on it? Yes, please...

Judging... I need to find a Lego Judge Dredd to post for these in the future... :warhead: Theme: 6 It is a nice idea, but there's not a lot of cohesion here. I mean, yeah, they're supposed to be a cobbled-mash-up kind of faction, but this sort of works against them. Substance: 7 hmm... 2 basic droid...

Wow... Okay, my initial reaction to this is, "oh look, another mecha," but this is a great vingette with some good implied action surrounding a really good build. Style: 8 Parts usage is pretty normal for the most part, nothing really greebly stands out, but it is a nice build with some good SNOT te...

This is an interesting little build and I rather like it. Not normally my thing, I'm more of a castle/pirate person myself, but I do appreciate a nice vehicle build like this. Style: 9 Seriously major NPU here. Love the way you shaped the VTOL housings with the grills on the top. I assume you can an...

Wow. Just... Wow. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were pandering to the judges, or at least one of them. This is a huge build, and I have to assume some of it took place before the contest started, but that is irrelevant. Lots of interesting wall angles here, love the 'splash' effect for th...

Wow, that is a nice ship! Love the greebling on the back, and some very interesting parts usage to make that skull really pop! Style: 9 Seriously NPU here. Don't get me wrong, a lot of the techniques have been done in other ships, both that I have seen and in official sets, but that deep bas-relief ...

Arrrrrr... I like pirates, this was interesting. Fun: 15 Lots of action, lots of swashbuckling finesse and critfails, plus one critsuccess that made even a minifigure get introspective... Violence: 7 Lots of violence, but not as much as the other entries. Photos: 7 Would have been higher with more i...

Hmm... Fun: 10 Didn't really get the feel for this one? Might just be me? Violence: 8 That was a lot of destruction... Photo: 8 Decent photos, immersion was pretty good, but kind of... confusing? Writing: 4 I didn't really understand much of what was happening here? Some more context would have been...

What... THE... F&*#?!? Fun: 18 I didn't really understand a lot of what was happening, but I was laughing a LOT when reading this, and that counts for a lot in my book. Violence: 9 My, there was a lot of carnage in this... Photography: 6 That was a LOT of photos. Almost too many, really, to the poin...

Wow. Just... Wow. Fun: 16 I didn't necessarily understand everything going on, but the whole thing felt like a cinematic experience, not a Brikwar. Violence: 10 You have to ask why??? Photography: 10 Even shots with non-Lego look awesome because of the lighting effects, which were STUPENDOUS. Seriou...

Well that's different. Concept: 8 As story ideas go, this is different. Feels like the start to an Isekai Manga, where the background characters are waiting for the big bad to appear and the hero to get hit by truck-kun. Form: 5 Flow is okay, framework is there, but it really needs to be fleshed out...

Uhhhhhh... This has all of the makings of a weird Anime with confusing action scenes and weird, overpowered fighting techniques. Concept: 5 I get the general idea behind this, but it feels really weird and I'm not sure there IS a meaning here? Form: 7 The framework is there, the form is there, the n...

Well this is definitely different. Concept: 8 Lots of meaning here. I want to rate this higher, but the idea isn't a new one, I've seen it before in many manga caps and stories. Form: 8 I like the form, and the core framework is very good. Voice: 5 Narration and character in this are very good for t...
