[Blacktron] Interstellar Spaceship

[Horlack Bricks]

The Lego City 60430: Interstellar Spaceship, being too small, too ugly, too many visible stud, too simple, etc ...

... I decided to re-do it again LEGO hurt my eyes too much. It tickled my fingers seriously.

Worse it's space ! I could not resist.

To build the flame/cone of the reactor, I used an Indian trick or innovated : NPU ! I used the transparent Dragon eggs, from the Lego Elves series (sets 41171 & 41180)

24132 - Container, Faceted, 4 x 4 x 1 2/3, Dragon Egg Top &
24130 -  Container, Faceted, 4 x 4 x 1 2/3, Dragon Egg Bottom

Then I stacked Dish-Radar 2x2 & 3x3 transparent-red, to build the inside of the flame/cone.

Looks awesome! Any chance of instructions becoming available for this?

And who needs stickers for a Blacktron logo when it is so simple with a few triangular tiles?

if I change/remove everything, the internal gradient is seen better: we don't have the backlights or shadow effects of external elements.

Looks great!
I meant is the entire model itself (or will it be) on Rebrickable?

Wicked! A fitting upscaled MOC for Blacktron. The wings appear to be variable geometry. Is that just how you angled them, or do they have the ability to sweep?
