Captain Green Hair Posted September 11, 2010 This is great, excellent job! The only thing that caught my eye is that the windows of the sky boxes appear to be different on both sides. Is this intended, it might otherwise look good to have them all with the grey frames. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACPin Posted September 11, 2010 I was holding my breath. Did you at least take notice of this since you pointed it out in the WIP? Woops! I was talking about the tan ridges above it. Started to do that portion in bricks for a flat look like the one on top. But had sagging issues with the middle portion since it had no support and was too heavy. Just had to switch with the plates instead. Man, this is awesome. Congrats. This is great, excellent job! The only thing that caught my eye is that the windows of the sky boxes appear to be different on both sides. Is this intended, it might otherwise look good to have them all with the grey frames. Good eye as those should have been the same but I ran out of the same pieces for the clear side. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted September 11, 2010 Did you at least take notice of this since you pointed it out in the WIP? [snip] I did. I think that's the first MOC of that ship I've ever seen. Was that built from only the one picture? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACPin Posted September 11, 2010 I did. I think that's the first MOC of that ship I've ever seen. Was that built from only the one picture? Yes and I should have shown one of the pilot pod detached as in the reference pic. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted September 11, 2010 Yes Nice. Makes it that much more impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACPin Posted September 11, 2010 Nice. Makes it that much more impressive. Thanks and here's the other view that shows the back side (left wing) similar to the newer B-Wing. I'll probably update this ship later and use it on other MOCs. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legoman Posted September 11, 2010 From a tree There's Lego tree's now? Feel free to stealborrow any design aspect from this for your own MOCs. PaB has been good to me (also good to know the staff at the Lego store). Awesome - I may well do. I went to the US earlier this year but didn't find any leaves. Got plenty of stalks though I wish I lived in the US (OK, only on the lego front - I love NZ ). ACPin, If you ever get the chance at bulk cheap leaves, Don't hesitate to PM me Also, the more I look, I must congratulate you on you're brilliant use of Grey Vs Bley. You actully made it look nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eurobricks fan Posted September 12, 2010 Wow! I knew it! Great as usual, of course. The only flaw I see is your use of the older sets. Please when doesn't Acpin do great plus anybody can youse what sets they want to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACPin Posted September 12, 2010 Eagerly awaiting it! That's going to be awhile. There's Lego tree's now? Awesome - I may well do. I went to the US earlier this year but didn't find any leaves.

You actully made it look nice Just lucky at times to be at the store when they had them (also good to know when they get new shipments). Doesn't bother me at all to use the new shades of colors with the old shades. At times it's a good mix to show weathered/used look than just one shade. Please when doesn't Acpin do great plus anybody can youse what sets they want to. The original ships were planned for this dio to be consistent overall except for the custom one behind the MF.

Wout Posted September 14, 2010 What a terriffic moc. I like the little hospital, the sleeping barracks, the computercentre and the briefing very much. Has you made a sort of green medic droid to the left in the hospital? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACPin Posted September 16, 2010 Not the best pic, but that IS an impressive med bay. Another view, though some of the minifigs are obscured from the shot. I wanted to include a Bacta tank but not much space to work with. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
