   One thing I’ve noticed in all these years in .space, is that there’s an overwhelming tendency for the best MOCs to have the fewest open areas of exposed studs, be they covered with greeblies, tiles, slopes, thinwalls or any sort of contouring/texturing really. Hmm, how’s that for Rule No.1 of the Space Builder’s Manual? “Where there are studs, thou shalt put stuff instead”.


That’s an interesting point and I’m curious how many agree with that. It does seem true that a lot of the more interesting models these days do seem to have fewer studs showing, but I wonder if it’s become a rule? I still think a lot of classic space still looks cool, even though there are studs all over the place.

Anyone care to prove that this rule, like all, was made to be broken? ;)


I’d definitely like to see that. Keep in mind, though, that I wasn’t saying it wouldn’t look cool with big areas of studs - I’d want to see an example where it didn’t seem like an improvement to build anything on those areas.

Cheers,
