Fuppylodders Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) So, being rather busy with life at the moment, a severe lack of money, multiple lego projects that I keep switching between and having nothing to show for any of it for ages, I decided I'd finish something I feel is within budget... sorta... All of these were done without looking at any other reference images of anyone elses as well as TLGs versions. The AT-AT has been finished in LDD for quite some time now, but I have only just finished the AT-ST and decided to make a Snowspeeder to go with them. At the time I did the snowspeeder TLG had released theirs already but I hadn't had a look at it, so I ensured I didn't so that I wouldn't copy any part of their design. And to be honest, I think it is my favourite as not only is it smaller (I think) but it is very sturdy for some swooshing :P The AT-AT is generally sturdy, apart form the 1x1 brick with studs on all sides that the legs are attached to. They keep detaching from the body so I'll have to figure out some way of making it less likely to fall off. Once standing, it is very sturdy, but it is just the 1x2 jumper plate that is lacking in clutch power (dam you modern lego!) which is the concern. Maybe the 1x1 jumper stud plate with the pin in the underside would be the better one to use... haven't tried it yet. The AT-ST is relatively sturdy, but likes to come apart at the 1x1 round plate on the legs. That is the only real issue with it, but, to keep it looking like it does, can't really be changed. Again, a lack of clutch power. Its body is really sturdy though. I've already been told that the AT-AT is less microfighter, more mini detailed AT-AT... but I'm fine with that, it is a nice criticism . Not the initial look I was going for, but it is finished and still looks good :) Comments and criticism is welcome :) Edited February 15, 2015 by Fuppylodders Quote
SerenityInFire Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 I think your MOC AT-AT looks better than the official microfighter one. Quote
Rishab N Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Love the AT-AT. It looks great for the scale Quote
James Wellington Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 I really like your Microfighter AT-ST, I think with an AT-ST Driver in stead of the armoured Imperial Officer, it could easily be a microfighters set. Your AT-AT Microfighter is better than the real version, but I still like real version, because to me it looks like a dog Quote
atlas Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 That's a pretty great solution for mini AT-AT feet Quote
Fuppylodders Posted February 16, 2015 Author Posted February 16, 2015 I think the feet were the first thing that came to me, and the 1x1 round plates just sort of finished them off. I actually thought that was an at-st driver >.< Ill have to look into what is the correct fig to use. I do like TLGs version and yes it does lookclike a dog, which makes it cute! So im looking forward to getting one :D Quote
All in the Reflexes Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 These are genius Fuppy, i really like the Speeder. Quote
Kodan Black Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 You captured the shape and feel of all of them very well, but I love the AT-AT. Looks fantastic. Quote
dr_spock Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Nicely done. I like the Speeder too. Quote
LegoAcklay Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 This is sick! Nice job! This is much better than the ones which you can buy. More accurate and more flexible in the moving parts. Quote
Koenta Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 That AT-AT looks really sweat. Some pictures are not shown, which is a pitty. Quote
markus1984 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Well done! The best of all are the AT-AT! Wish the TLC Microfighter would be look so good! markus Quote
Spud The Viking Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 I love these! That AT-AT is just beautiful! Quote
Fuppylodders Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 It is also really irritating me now lol... The 1x1 brick doesn't like staying attached to the bottom of the 1x2 jumper stud plate (no pin on the underside of this version of jump[er plate) Dam that lack of clutch power :( But thank you for your comments people :) Quote
