This is awesome! I've used the site Ideas-Tracker for a few weeks now and it's awesome! (http://ideas-tracker.com/index)
It helps you track where a project is and the expected votes needed to reach your goals. We are sooooo close to 10k votes! I can't thank everyone enough! Let's push it people and get this thing in front of the LEGO designers!

We are in the final stretch + NEW Design and renders

This is it folks! Just under 2k more votes to go! AND I've taken all of your advice. Let's make this baby a true project! Here are the updates.
  1. I'd taken the half and doubled it! it is now a full geode that can be separated to see the interior.
  2. I've roughed up the edges and the outside design to be more accurate to what we would see if you just happened upon one in the wild!
  3. A pick that you can use to "break" it open!
  4. I've added the tiny geode which is Minifigure scale to show you the size difference. It's so cute next to it ha!
  5. New renders curtesy of https://www.instagram.com/hendrix.cj/ which are absolutely stunning!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW.
We are so so close and I think this set will make a great idea for something in the adult-centered sets!

These beautiful renders were done by CJ (https://www.instagram.com/hendrix.cj/) Check out his work!

Renders

Some new renders to add to the collection. It seems to be REALLY difficult to get the render just right. he had to use 12 lights inside the model to have it shown what it should look like! What do you think? I think they look great and might even replace the current photo!

BLOG POST

So, i now realized that I haven't put out an update in a while. So I have been starting to work on my blog and make a nice post to show some behind-the-scenes photos of the build. You can all check it out at back2brick.com. Super excited to see we are over 3000 supporters! I love you all and appreciate your support. It really means a lot that you guys like my design.
