[MOC] Y-Wing Gundam (Moodland Scale)

Recommended Posts

So, here's the next in my SW/Gundam mash-up: Y-Wing Gundam (Gold and Red Leaders). I tried to include the greebly-ness of the Y-Wing fighter with the design of a Gundam Astray Frame.

I pretty much used TLG's engine design for their mini Y-Wing set, because, honestly, I couldn't think of a better one.

I also tried a new hand design for this scale which I'm pretty happy with.

And here's the Red Leader color variant. Let me know what you all think. :classic:

Those really do keep the feel of the Y-Wing very well, especially the engines dangling at the back. I do wonder though... is there the usual pilot space inside the body? You haven't shown any pictures of it so far :(

Not bad! Nice use of the engines in the back.

Thanks! I think the engines on the back say "Y-Wing" more than anything else.

Good work. The yellow color looks the best.

Thanks. That's pretty much the classic color scheme.

Well, seeing as this figure is only about 7 inches tall, there's not much room for a pilot. :laugh: If this was minifig-scale, however, I would make a space in the chest for the pilot.
