But mom, I don't wanna Blog today.....


I didn't want to. I'm busy and tired and underfed. But I had to anyway. MArk Stafford's R-Wing is the awesomest entry in this contest that I've seen. And believe me, I've seen a lot. Ok, so this thing has an awesome shape. (the whole 'R' thing pretty much makes that a given) the detail is great, the *feel* of the ship is great. It feels like one of Jon Palmer's ships. And the cherry on top, it's onrj. I love orange. It's to die for in this quantity. Whoops, this Marks mark's err marks Mark's second Snoikled MOC. Putting the postion of first place on the Snoikle-Meter in a tie. One of you *two better build something awesome so I can blog it. ;-)

*The other being Linus Bohman. But seeing as he's my only loyal reader methinks he'll know who I'm talking about.

Got 3vil?


This is such an awesome MOC. I love 3vil. And I love Legohaulic's work. So when I saw that he built 3vil I nearly flipped. The detail is amazing on this beauty. Lots of guns. Lots and lots of guns. Greeblies look sweet and the skull is by far, the best I've ever seen. A skull with a mohawk smokinga cig. Awesome. And you know, I really don't need to write about how cool this is. It pretty much speaks for itself.

Scoin XB


Mike Yoder is another builder whos talent I wish I had. His Altair ships are nothing short of sweet. And he seems to have an awesome style no matter what he's building. (although the ship he's working on now seems to vary from his usual....excellence) But anyway, this little gem is awesome. I know from first hand experience how hard making a futuristic car can be. He pulls it off nicely. The way it folds out is pretty cool. And the colors, the colors are the best part. Mike loves his Exo-Force stickers, and they work beautifully here. I want to build a little army of these babies. Blah blah blah and so on. So there you have it yet again, Snoikle (with the help of that guy who built it) brings you a little transport worthy of {insert obscure Sci-Fi reference here}

Kitsune.


From the man who gave us the Aggressor, the Iron Rhino, and the Spartan vs. Wolverine series, comes the latest breathtaking MOC. Critics agree "two thumbs up!" Kyle Vreize, take a bow.

Where does one start on a ship like this? It's the one of the awesomest space MOCs I've seen since the Asmodeus came along. The amount of detail is the best part.
Lots of shape, color, and weapons. Oh Boy, the weapons! guns that look spacey but not corny or oversized. The turret up front (rail-gun?) is sweetness itself.
And the missiles. Vreize is a stronge advocate of missiles.
The engines are another stronge point. Wheels? yes. Cool? hellz yes.
On the Aggressor, he had a idea about "Graviton Drive" or somesuch. I'm thinking he doing the same here. Beautiful.
This ship takes strongly after the Aggressor. This Snoikler is going to guess it's based on the same idea/inspiration. I just can't get over how cool it is. Well done Kyle.

Shin-nyu


Linus Bohman reaches first place in the Snoikle-Meter. Having been Snoikled more times than anyone else. So anyway, his latest ship really is awesome. It's yet another ship that you first look at and think "ah, micro!" and then you keep clicking pics and discover "gasp! It ISN'T micro!" The colors are what really drew me too this craft, the blend of red, gray, white and black is awesome. The grabs are another strong point. Beautifully executed. The engine it'self is also sweet. This guy has really grown as a builder since he first came to CSF. (oh yes, I credit CSF for all of this ;-) ) Here's looking at you Linus!

Steam Tank



Built by moi for the CSF Flickr Group Steampunk Contest (What a name) it's probably not my best work, but I wanted to build something cool for this contest.

Orca Class Fighter


The shape is cool. The colors are cool. The schmoothness is cool. This post shall be short.

Justice Is Served.....On a Silver Platter!



Chris Giddens. Lego Ambassador, CSF Admin. Uber-geek (Sshhhhh, don't tell him I said so) And of course, the guy who builds ships like the Vanguard, Fazoom-O-Craft, and S.L.A.M. He also built this rather stylish blue vessel (that's right, I said blue. Trying to break this Red craze I'm on) It sports some awesome weaponery, beautifully thought out shape and details, The cockpit is nicely done using three different pieces to make one full window. And the engines, although they ARE wheels. They don't look like wheels stuck on a spaceship. They actually look like engines. And of course, my fav-o-rite part......chrome. I'm a sucker for chrome. Beautiful ship Chris, keep up the mind-blowing-jaw-dropping-butt-kicking good work!

Mini Space Cruiser


B-Shelf user 'Tornado' built this cute little spaceship. What's so cute about the little ship? I don't know.Maybe it's the shape, kinda back to the futurish. Maybe it's just cause it's red. I don't know. The whole craft uses a lot of SNOT, on the wings and tail mostly. The underside is bare, but that's the only nit I see with this ship.

First Mulitiple MOC Post.


First off we have the first non-space MOC I've blogged. A cool little model of a camera by B-Shelf user arvo. I'm not sure what's so cool about it. It just struck me as a nice model.



Second, we have a micro 3vil cruiser built by B-Shelf user Turkguy19. (who goes by the same name on CSF) A nice ship with a suprising amount of detail. The weapons he made for this ship work well. And as is anything 3vil it has to have skulls! Several decently done ones I might add. It's not easy making convincing skulls.



And third, another Crysilon vessel made this time by Paul Kanter (FilmmakerPaul of CSF) The colors are, as is Crysilon standard, bright, obnoxious, loud,garish, and probably any other word that means painfully colorful. The pods used for the wings are my favorite part. They look perfect on this ship.

And there we have it. Snoikle's first Multiple MOC Post.

Yeah....it's red


I have a strange thing for red. Almost every ship I've blogged has been red. Anyway, JPascal built this cool hover car type MOC. The construction is the coolest bit of SNOT I've seen in a while, making the bottom studless apperas to be the new thing around town. The striping on this thing is really cool. The red on the side makes it look kinda like a futuristic super-cool woody. I love red and black color schemes. (Maybe I'll actually build something using it one of these days.) And so, JP has proved he can out-build the majority of CSFers. Congrats, JPascal. :^)

Nemo II Maurauder


Charlie Citrin, lego2000 on CSF, is an excellent mech builder. His latest mech is a beautiful piece of work. My favorite part has to be the colors. Blue and yellow is a great color scheme. And it really works well here. The weapons are another cool thing about this. Check out that super-cool shield, and the neat rifle. Nice work l2k.

ARRGH!


not to toot my own horn, but I bilt a uber-c00l ship. It goes like three billion miles a second and is armed with lazer cannons. it's really cool.

Gah, My Eyes!


Mark Stafford builds some of the coolest ships I've ever seen. His Micro-scale ships are all the rage on CSF. Or they were a couple weeks ago. But anyway, he has decided that space needs more color. And in horrific combonations too. Thus he built a Crysilon attack ship. These aliens apparently like bright colors. Lots of bright colors. The ship itsself is cool. I personally like the tail the best. Can't quite say why. I just do. The cockpit is cool, looks like the pilot has more visibilty than your average spaceman/alien. And there you have it. One MOC, one Snoikle post, and one very tired snoikler.

Sofia



Kcaster, who sometimes goes by the ailis Nick Dean, built a way too cool Diplomatic transport. The SNOTeed sides are perfect. When you first look at it you can't tell it's made of Lego. The colors are awesome. I for one supported the tan in there. It takes a step away from the ever-so-common gray + red color scheme. The greeblies on here are teh h0tn3ss. Perfectly set into the ship. Excellent work Nick!

Tycho's Kat


Roy Cook posted a pretty neat ship today. The Tycho's Kat. It's kinda ugly, yet it's still fun to look at and try to figure out how he built it. The SNOT used in this beast is great. Lots of studless areas around. Red and white is a great, if somewhat overused, color scheme. It adds to the sort of cartoonish look of the craft. My favorite part of this ship has to be the engine intakes. You can never use to much chrome.

Steampunk Ninjas?


Linus Bohman recently made a "Steampunk in Asia" vignette. It's an excellent example of what I think of as steampunk. Futurestic, yet old fashioned. Lots of neat detail, and a really cool assassin dude. Good job Linus!

JE Gunboat, Sun Tzu.


I built a small Jade Empire Gunboat recently. It's nothing special, but I like it. It marks the first JE ship posted in several months. (I wonder what happened?) The three engine configuration is a bit strange. It's also slightly reminiscent of my PCS Transport and Dzerzhinsk. I made up a story to go with it. It can be read here. http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/18245

Snoikle is Live!

And so we begin.
