Sky Captain Vs Bots

October 28, 2013/ Tommy

Here's another entry into the MocOlympics. I actually worked on this movie, and have a soft spot for it. I'd love to see this treated with the "SkyCap" look, I think it would be fantastic. Nice work Elliot.

Heeeeere's Pennywise!

October 13, 2013/ Tommy

Well, this is quite the mashup, two Stephen King novels and LEGO. That was exactly the challenge for pif500 in the MocOlympics, and the results just work. Who knew It and The Shining could be combined.

Gemini Nightmare

September 13, 2013/ Tommy

The first round of the MocOlympics is "The 12 Signs of the Zodiac". There have been many creative interpretations of this, and many excellent MOCs. This one by Delatron 3000 though is a thing of nightmares. Instead of just classic twins, this is inspired by siamese twins, and sideshow attractions. How wonderfully bent.

Blake Baer Tips The Scales

September 07, 2013/ Tommy

Oh man, that's a bad title, sorry about that. But it's really what has happened. This entry into the first round of the MocOlympics is stunning, and stands out from the rest. It's work like this that will move on and set the bar higher and higher. We're going to see some amazing work this year, this is only the beginning.
