It seems like it would be appropriate to start a separate thread
specifically for holding actual entries.

With that, here are my first 3 entries:

Category 3: Medium Ships (approx. 100-200 pieces):
http://www.hafhead.com/lego/myspace/clscout/index.html

Category 4: Large Ships (approx. 300-1000 pieces):
http://www.hafhead.com/lego/myspace/clvoy2/index.html

Category 5: Utility Vechicles (any size, 1000 pieces or fewer)
http://www.hafhead.com/lego/myspace/clcomand/index.html

Feel free to follow up this article with entries.  Please put discussion
either on a new thread on the main thread:
http://news.lugnet.com/build/contests/?n=82

Great idea, Todd!!

Here's my next entry for the design contest. It's a category 8 mobile rocket launcher, based loosely on the 6950 mobile rocket launcher. My concept for it was a smaller, faster, lighter version of the 6950 for people who want to lob a missile 1000 (...) (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

OK. Here's my first entry. This is the ship that TLG would never have made back then, but that everyone of us would have wanted... a fighter !

Greetings all. After working arduously on producing not one, but a few successful models for the Contest, I've finally re-tooled my first model for entry, the FX-Star Patroller II.

Here's my latest Classic Space Design Contest Entry: Its profile may look very familiar to some of you. My favorite classic space set heavily influenced the design of this vehicle, but it does stand on its own as a unique vehicle, I think.

  ARRRRGH!!! (Was: Re: Classic Contest Entries)
 
So tonight I pulled out my big box of LEGO from my wee days. Most of my collection was classic space, and I probably have about 50% of the sets from '78 to '83 say. So I figured I should have no problem coming up with some entries that are made (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

Hello again. :-) I'm writing because I've just completed no less than 2 more entries for the Classic Space Building Contest. These will be my 3rd, 4th, and 5th entries. Why not 2nd? Simple.

G'day folks, I wasn't going to do any entries when I realized that most of my grey LEGO was about an 18-hour drive away. But I do have a Galaxy Explorer here so I figured surely I could come up with something from that. Problem is I like multi-axled (...)
