In the dawning of the Pirate Imperials, they were commonly found to be raiding villages inhibated by the islanders. And now, the new Islander Rebellion has started a new project and created several ships in defense. This is one of them.

It is a fusion of the A-wing, and the Islander theme.

nice start, you captured the islander feel in it, my suggestion is that you try to make it resemble more like the a wing, like maybe adding spears as side cannons or etc.

I have to say I totally agree with Artizan, and I think that if you improve it a little, it would be a great entry

As example, use the palm tree things : Posted Image I mean, this piece in brown ^^

Too long and tall for the A wing.
Ought to be short and wide, with an obvious triangular shape when seen from above.

Yes, but it sort of is an A shape. Its really just an islander spaceship, that is a bit like an A-wing.

Nice :thumbup: It's just, there's this beautiful rock and foresty type look, with all the green, and then there's a control panel. It really breaks the forest look.
Also, it's a little skinny.

Its good but doesnt really look like an a wing.

I do like how you did the cockpit though its really good
I like how you used the rock for the fuselage.

That is really cool! King Kahuka is one of my favorite minifiguresand you created a great vehicle for him. I love the rocky details on the front.
Unlike everyone else, I think it looks like an A-wing. But, if you wanted it to look more like an A-wing, I suggest making the tail divide into two seperate parts, to look like the A-wing's rocket jets.
Great job!
