Imperial Hangar (Stopmotion Set)

Well, I've decided to give a shot at stopmotion for my final project in my school photo class and thought what better way to combine the project with Legos! The following set/figures will be featured in my upcoming (Wednesday or so) stopmotion film which will take place during TFU era and loosely based off of the game itself. The setting is inside an Imperial hangar. In building this project I've learned a few things 1. I have so much more respect for those who build big- as this is my biggest creation to date and keeping up with my standards of detail was difficult. I'm amazed at the amount of brick that goes into these projects 2. Stopmotion is incredibly challenging, but much more fun than I ever expected! My hat's off to those (Garet and Sith) who do it often. Very time consuming.
Cheers all

Try to ignore the studded floor. I didn't want to do it and it totally isn't my style, but studs are necessary for stopmotion.

Looks good! Are you going to how us your stopmotion?

Cool!!! You need to make the other side. Then the ends, & the roof. This could be a really cool MOC!

It looks awesome! I love how you've done all the detail on the wall.

A very nice wall so far! Will the door be able to open?

I saw this last night on flickr... nice nice NICE work. I love the white tiles for lights (I assume) really adds that feel to it.

Nice figs too... Look forward to the film.

^Agreed, I think the white tiles look good if they are for 'lighting' like the game or just for detail for that matter!I like all the details on the wall and
how they aren't the same for every area. I also enjoy the use of the antennas for gates/barriers. I can't wait to see it! Unless you aren't posting it...

Thanks all! Yes of course I will be posting the film for you to see! Wouldn't go through all the time and effort and not show it!

Can't wait to see it Revo!

Looks very nice so far. What exactly is the movie going to be about?

Looks really good. I actually think the studs, give it a, uh, 'touch' to it. Looks nice. The figures are nice looking too.

Hubba hubba.

That is truly amazing. I love how you interprete the combonation of studs and greebles! This is excellent - It's so detailed and it's still fit for a stopmotion animation!

I believe he says it in the discription that it is a Force Unleashed movie. This looks sweet! The wall is very nice and I realy like the dark greebled area. Good job.

No words are needed, but they will be added. With brick films you often can't have detail. Filmers usually have to take away it for the ability to film, but you have not needed to do this. It absolutely perfect. I can't wait to see the film. I really can't.

Wow!
Nice, just advise, you could put smooth tiles on the ground.

Is going to be as good as XXXfancypantsXXX?

His is friggin epic. I loved the smoothness of his figure actions. I don't know if I can get it that smooth but I'm going to try to shoot for 15fps. I'm not sure if I'll be going into 'shop and adding lightsaber effects. If I can rip sound files off a cd, there will be sound effects.

Thanks again all!

I really like this one Revo!The dark bley greeble stripe is what first caught my eye. I'm not to big on the untiled floors, but maybe after the stop-motion you could tile the floors for an update? All in all well done!

Ah yes, forgot to mention that. I'm planning on turning this into a kinda pre-epic TFU dio, dio. So there will be tiles.

If you want tips, just look at popular channels on youtube(fancypants, thefourmonkeys, etc.) for tut's. FancyPants has some pretty good ones that I use too.

OKay, I like the greebles on the wall, I like the figs, I like the way how you built the rail, I like-
But what does the light blue thing on the shoulder of the pilot represent?

The set looks great. But xxxfancypantsxxx has set a high bar for TFU.

Get the star wars lego game 1 and 2 demo for PC, they have all of the sounds in .WAV

This is going really well so far IMO. (The MOC that is) Best of luck with it.

Freakin sweet dude, good luck!
