Hello all, in support of a new display we’re going to try and get going at
Brickfest this year, I am announcing a contest. The object? To build asteroid
based MOCs!
There will be two categories in this contest, small asteroid and large asteroid.
The other judges and I will try and define these categories based on the type of
entries submitted.
The only restriction is that the actual asteroid parts should be reasonable
asteroid colors, so that they can all be put into one layout display. Example
colors are tan, light gray, dark gray, and brown, but if you can make something
else work (like a gray asteroid half mined away to show trans neon green or
something), go for it.
Feel free to post your entries online wherever you like, just make sure that you
also email entries to me at happyweasel at gmail.com with “asteroid contest
entry” a part of the subject line.
I’m going to give alot of time for this, as I know alot of folks are in school
of some sort, and wouldn’t mind waiting for classes to end. So the deadline will
be on July 15th.
Prizes? I’m sure I can come up with something, but I don’t have anything
specific in mind yet, the prizes will change relative to the number and quality
of entries.
Now, example ideas:
- large scale mine
- small asteroids with small mines or miners on them
- the home of Le Petit Prince
- pirate or smuggling bases
- transmission relays
- research labs
- colonial outposts
- space rockin disco
- some of you may recall that I built a monastery
Your imaginations are the limit!

| (...) What's wrong with you Rubin? I'm going to pretend you didn't really suggest this one. Great contest idea though, and I think it would make for a great group display and a better setting for ships at a con. -Keith (20 years ago, 28-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
