Go microspace! Hurrah!

SO this is a piece that I made by, literally:
  • *Reaching into one of my theme boxes.
    *Setting a five minute timer.
    *Building.
I only managed to not put on one piece out of the handful. Guess I got insanely lucky. This is what came of it:

P.S. I really only did this because I wanted to post something.

:shock: wow, maybe this is how all microspace should be built...

I'm proud of the front end, but not so much the back.

Here, I'll do it again and see if the result is equally awesome. I'm feeling bold.

Alright, did it again. Camera was being bitchy, so I only have less than half of the pics I took of it, but you get the idea.

Ahaha Tuefish that's great!

I'll probably take a whack at this tomorrow, looks like fun :D

Ran out of time, with these six pieces leftover...

I think this is my new favorite theme box.

EDIT: Sadly, I couldn't make anything worth posting out of the remainder of the box. But I have three new themed ships to show for this endeavor, so woohoo!

Alright, this time I tried TWO handfuls from a different theme box, with a ten minute time limit. Results:

I will also admit they were mildly selective two handfuls. This MOC is a bit less random (thus my ability to actually pull off some symmetry this time around).

I have also discovered the wonder that is the tiny ladder bit. I'm seeing it inside of a blocky engine intake... great greebling material right there.

Ten minutes with two handfuls, or five minutes with one handful?

You've got options, man :guinness:

Or the extreme three handfuls with 15 minutes!
