Apocryphal Ice Planet 2002
Check out the first sample

Hmmm. First, 3 question:
1. What does “apocryphal” mean?
|
Jeez! When you ask it point-blank like that, you make me wonder if I’ve been
misusing it all this time. My usage is a usurpation of the term as it applies
to the non-canonical books of the bible (the Gospel of Charlie, the Book of
Tasty Recipes, and the like), but my designs and pieces are “apocryphal” to the
canonical LDraw library (and, for that matter, to LEGO MOC-dom in general).
Whoa! Shock-and-awning! I swear, I never saw that image until you brought it
to my attention, and any suggestions to the contrary are vicious, vicious lies!
| |
All seriousness aside, I can only admire your dedication to clone world. You
definitely march to the beat of a different drum, Dave!
|
Thanks kindly! I’ve found a niche, and I hope to stick with it.

On to the critique: This is a nice little ship, presumably scout class, and
easily identified in ICMMII color scheme. Or perhaps a spy ship,
infiltrating the home world on reconnaissance for nefarious purposes? Oh
what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
|
Well, practice makes perfect. Honestly, after I’d designed it, I realized that
I hadn’t included any weapons. So a scout it is!
| |
I look forward to seeing subsequent offerings; maybe something larger and
more intimidating:-d
|
Mega Bloks has a 10x2x8 windscreen in trans-orange that I hope to incorporate
into a big ol’ IPMMII MOC at some point. Stay tuned (for an indefinite length
of time...)

...“blocks of ice” You’re incorrigible, Dave!

nyuk nyuk nyuk
Dave!
