Greetings,

Some of you may have seen the recent posts of my MTT and AAT models. • Thanks
for the praise. If you liked those models I think you'll enjoy my • Galactic
Challenge entery even though it didn't win. I called it an Imperial • Atomic
Regeneration Plant (ARGP). My thought was that the Empire would use this
base to create a Nitrogen based atmosphere on lifeless planets and • moons.
Thereby allowing the planet or moon to be colonized by humanoids and
exploitated for its resources.

The things I liked most about the ARGP was:
1. The size (and it's all Lego)
2. The Imperial Shuttle and the landing bay
3. The suspended TIE Intercepters


There's lots to add here:
4.  Such a huge structure supported on "stilts"
5.  Attention to detail--the various red dots all over, the inner sides of
the landing bay
6.  The landing bay looks the perfect height for troops to disembark from
the AT-AT
7.  Sweet cannon emplacements on the corners
8.  Use of many plates to create "sculpted" exterior to the structure
9.  Overall "functional" look to the installation

In a word:  "Wow!"
