501st Commando Posted August 12, 2010 I've had this sitting on my desk collecting dust for over 2 weeks now, and I finally decided to finish it. It's a 36x36 depicting when the Rebel's send in the T-47's to defend the base from the Empire. The main point of this MOC was to make a display for my 7130 re-make. I had a great time making this MOC, and I would love to take on Hoth on a much larger scale in the future. The dio's set. T-47 and Atgar cannon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rijkvv Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) This looks very detailed. The Snowspeeder, the turret, even the floor of the trench. Nice way of creating muzzle flashes for the rifles as well. Edited August 12, 2010 by Richie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OneSnowTrooper Posted August 12, 2010 Very good MOC, MOC's of the OT are so iconic and recognizable Nice way of creating muzzle flashes for the rifles as well. I agree with this fully, really smart and great effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XimenaPaulina Posted August 13, 2010 I've seen a lot (as in a lot) of Hoth-based MOCs lately, and I must say this has got to be one of the best I've seen so far. I think you got the right amount of details and true proportions for the Snowspeeder, Atgar Cannon, and even the rebels' rifles. The positioning of the Snowspeeder coming from behind the rebels' trench is very nicely done and reminds me of the actual scene in the movie. And the best part for me are not even the ship, rebels, or weapons, but the snow! The use of slopes and tiles give the snow a smooth and very realistic look. Overall amazing job 501st Commando. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted August 13, 2010 Just how many handless minifigs do you have now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smack Posted August 13, 2010 A really great MOC here. The T 47 and the Atgar cannon are very nice but the snow and trench make this for me. The slopes and tiling are placed perfectly IMO. Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
501st Commando Posted August 14, 2010 Great job do you mind if I use some of your designs. Not at all, just give credit. Just how many handless minifigs do you have now? Far to many. @-Thanks for the great comments everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoDad42 Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) Excellent MOC! That turret weapon is great and detailed, the trench is spot on and the Snowspeeder is sweet! Love to see how you tackle Hoth on a larger scale. Edited August 15, 2010 by LegoDad42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
