LuxorV Posted June 10, 2009 Hi everybody, it's been a long time since I last posted in the Star wars Forum (apart for the Staff Contest). Today I want to share with you my last mini-scale creation: the Corporate Alliance Tank Droid Classic side view It took me about 1 hour and two false starts to put it together; while it's not perfect, I'm very satisfied with what I got in the end. I'm so much satisfied that I made two of them BS Gallery Comments and Critics are welcome. Thanks for watching LuxorV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted June 10, 2009 Wow these are really neat LuxorV. Great job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuxorV Posted June 10, 2009 Thanks KimT For some reason, I find this slug droid really cute and I wanted to create a sort of pet-like big-eyed version of it Espect more SW minis from me in the future LuxorV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Rancor Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) I second that KimT, those minis look straight out of a Lego box (although they don't seem to make them any anymore ) All the nice Clone Wars minis lately have gone to brickmaster, but lets not start a rant about that. The binocular pieces are perfect for dual laser cannons and of course the small dark bley disks are perfect for the sides. I hope to see the large counterpart in stores in the UK/ on the website soon! Edited June 10, 2009 by The Rancor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Future74 Posted June 10, 2009 I'm not into mini's, but this one is beautiful Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mraz Skintas Posted June 10, 2009 These are really good, but to me the front 'legs' seem a little to long. This could possibly be fixed by raising the center discs up and moving them a tad bit forward. But other than that, great job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuxorV Posted June 11, 2009 Thanks all for the positive feedback These are really good, but to me the front 'legs' seem a little to long. This could possibly be fixed by raising the center discs up and moving them a tad bit forward. But other than that, great job Yes, they're indeed a bit too long. I built them that way for two reasons; one because I wanted to enphasize some details (like said 'front legs' and the 'eyes'); secondarly... because it was easier to do Btw, I'm glad I chose to build this mini, since it was a good opportunity to have a better look at the original model, and to get a better understanding of the design; I must admit I used to look at it and sell only the slug-like anterior; it was interesting to have to develope a good shape to include the back wheels?/shiels? and to ballance (as best as I could) the overall design LuxorV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
