*Update* Factory raid

On Raxus Prime a group of ARC troopers attack a future CIS factory. For this MOC I wanted to try out some new techniques and try to improve my dioramas. This is my medium entry on EB's Epic Scenes Contest.

Eh... it seems to clean for me. Raxus Prime should have scraps on the floor.

This, my friend, is pure win compressed into a 32x32 MOC. The belts, door and broken window are excellent, as is the colour.

You might want to add more junk/droids though, but other than that it's perfect!

It looks great, and I love the action! But I don't like how it is so big, and so empty. I think you should fill it up a little more with some greeble-ish stuff.

Nice!!! Looks great!! Interesting color design.

And I agree with everyone else. Those droids keep that place spic and spand.

In person it doesn't look that empty, but I guess in the photos it does. The belts take up a lot of room, and there is a little space by the clones. I'll see what I can do though.

@-Thanks for the great comments everyone!

Knight, the MOC needs to look more junk/dirty.

It needs some greebles and more droids otherwise it would be perfect!

Alright, I'll add more droids/junk. I'll have an update in a day or two!

@-Thanks for the great comments everyone!

I'm lovin the upside-down clone, this moc is amazing.

OMG! Sooo much better Knight, you've got featured MOC easily.

Update! Good thing my desk had a lot of junk sitting on it! Most of these were tablescraps that were never finished. Just had to add a few extras. Better, yes, or no?

No.

The walls need geebled areas too.

Wow! I really like it now! A big improvement! Good job, and keep them coming!

looks good enough for front page.

No way! The wall took the longest, plate, by plate, by plate. Besides I like the rusty look.

That looks really nice now. Great job!

I love the moc, but the floor is bugging me. Don't get me wrong I like all the junk, it's the tiles that aren't doing it for me.

Maybe try using something like this. http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?colorID=85&itemID=796

I don't care. JK

When you fix the wall to my liking, then I will give you my vote of "yes".

Same here. You need more studs. Also, make the ground higher in spots.

Why would the groud be higher in some spots in a factory? It's not a hill. I like to make most of my MOC's studless, it give it a more realistic look.

@-^Ninja Trooper^, I like the way it is, but not a bad suggestion.

@-Thanks for the great comments everyone!

The updated one now looks much better, with lots of stuff cluttered on the floor it really looks like a factory now!

Not all things in real life are smooth.

Yeah, but hardly anything in real life has studs on it.

Much, much better.

Keep it up.

One of the best MOC I have ever seen

Like Tac said, floors don't have studs. Most floors are flat, and smooth. You're right about most things not being smooth, but interior floors need to be.
