The Leviathan

[The Alchemyst]

[Click the pic for the flick[r] set]

The Leviathan is a Heavy-class command ship, that contains various fighters inside as well. Kind of like a Starcraft Carrier.

The descriptions of the pictures have some specific stuff there, but overall I'm pretty pleased with this.

It was a fun and painful build; a couple of stuff is held by friction or nonstandard means. You can see how in the 3 "Build" pics in the set.

It's my first microscale MOC as well.

It's supposed to be steampunk, but then again, it has "thrusters". It uses steam to create thrust? Or propellers inside them that are too small to see? Dunno. >.>

I'll make sure my next steampunk MOC has propellers, I promise.

VERY cool!

I especially like the use of the shovel on the news. Overall got a very nice, not-too-greeblie-not-too-smooth feel.

News? I meant nose.

Hello!

It's a nice mini model! Brown and dark gray goes together well, and you have some really nice greebling techniques here. Especially those minifigure hands go along great around the plates with one centered stud.

One thing I don't like are the two clear 1x1x2/3 slopes. It seems they are not connected in any way but instead only loosely placed there. Sliding techniques themselves are good sometimes, but here they prevent the cockpit dish to connect properly as they stand out higher than the rest.

I would try two things. First I would remove them and place a brown tile next to the binoculars to complete the tile construction. It looks more smooth then two and closes the gap to the cockpit also a little. Second you could try: Move the binoculars to where the empty stud is next to it. Remove the the rear neighboring 1x4 tile and replace it by a 1x1 and 1x2 tile so you have place for another binoculars two studs away from the moved first one. You have two free studs bewteen the binoculars now. In this gap you place 2 clear 1x1x2/3 slopes to close the cockpit from the sides. Maybe it's worth a try.

Cheers,

Good use of binoculars and spade.

I think you needed a hand or few

Interesting mini, it's like a large class mini. It kind of reminds me of the Matrix ships.
