I’m open to suggestions. going forward, anytime anyone has a challenge they’d like to judge or suggest, just post a thread and we’ll make it so!
I’m thinking GARC will be our Q3 challenge.

anyone up to the challenge?
July 1, 2015 at 9:47 pm #12251PeteParticipantthis is a good one for the space guys.
July 2, 2015 at 7:59 pm #12279Benjamin C GoodParticipantI’m gonna suggest a build challenge that involves using as many of this piece in red as possible, as creatively as possible:

If only we knew somebody who has a whole case of them, and is so free with them that he literally tosses handfuls of them into the air in celebration.

Mr. Potato Head: Hey, Hamm. Look, I’m Picasso!
Hamm: I don’t get it.

July 3, 2015 at 10:06 am #12304ShaunParticipantThere’s a list of requirements for this style of ship on that Flickr page:
-Must have 2 crew members per ship (pilot & navigator)
-No weapons
-Must look FAST 🙂
-The crazier the colour scheme the betterI already have a general idea of what mine will look like

July 3, 2015 at 2:56 pm #12310Benjamin C GoodParticipantAre you running a ‘purist’ competition here? The reason I ask: GARC is based on heavily on the idea of NASCAR in space, and so sponsor advertisements on vehicles are a big part of it. I’m going thru the GARC group on flickr, all the builds I consider to be the GARCiest use a lot of stickers on the vehicles for ads, almost always in ways that the stickers were not intended in their original sets. But I’m also seeing a lot of custom stickers printed for a lot of the builds. Gonna allow that for the competition?
July 3, 2015 at 3:07 pm #12312Greg SchubertParticipantsounds like we have our first volunteer to judge!
okay
Are you running a ‘purist’ competition here?
no

yes, but this example photo just blows my mind; I mean, that is made of LEGO parts? really?

Well, *I* did…
…and I added them to our Flickr group and approved the other submissions.
You’re welcome.
[Okay, technically I didn’t get a pic of Aaron’s rockin’ GARC but that’s just because he packed it up so early…]
August 25, 2015 at 3:33 pm #13043Aaron GomezParticipantCheers Matt!

I just assumed after Greg’s judging everyone had gotten to see the builds as much as they wanted too. 😉
