Christoph Monnaie Feature

BCS base - Eth Arpadies
Christoph on flickr. His latest is this sprawling moon base. The brick-built spheres might look dated technique-wise what with those new Star Wars miniplanets, perhaps in a round-about way utilizing square pieces to make round shapes has become its own ironic form NPU.

Here is a series of starfighters he has assembled. Kind of like, what if Peter Reid did bubble canopies?

BCS starfighter "Santerio MKII" BCS Starfighter "Gorkywor"
BCS starfighter "Fientjar MKII"
 I can imagine they can be difficult to integrate. Christoph seems pretty apt at it, though.

 Marion CLP 64d Heavy Escort Starfighter 01
The hose around the cockpit on this one does a good job of covering up gaps and making for a cohesive shape.

Korontrax FG 87b Starfighter 03

Ubix Aeroskimmer transport
As fun as the starfighters are, this wheeled ground transport is my favorite.

Jacob
Occasional driving force of the blog, self-proclaimed Lukas fanboy, and aspiring engineer, Jacob spends too much time building LEGO, not enough time practicing piano, and not nearly enough time doing school. He also enjoys long sentences. In the instance of blogging, he believes in quantity over quality, wherever quantity can be maintained.
Mike
One of the cofounders of YSAB, and the founder of YSA, Observing Mike actually being productive is a rare occasion. Mike enjoys making outlandish claims in relation to actually building, pretending he's actually sorting his collection, and making excuses for why he hasn't photographed his MOCs. In his free time he enjoys learning CSS from Spook, photography and poking badgers with spoons.
Dean
Occasional builder, occasional blogger, and full-time procrastinator. That's really the only way to describe Dean. He rarely gets anything done, but is a very active lurker. He's probably seen and liked your MOC, but just forgot he had a blog.
Erik
Erik is still a teenager.
Lukas
Lukas is tall, blond, mildly OCD, and doesn't build nearly enough as he would like to, thanks to school. He has a webpage.
Spook (Tim)
The resident codemonkey and graphics person. If something isn't working correctly, it's probably his fault. Fitting to his name, he doesn't post often, but someone has to do this stuff too, right? Spook does build with laygoes, and has his own blog as well.
