Imperial Navy

[Murdoch17]

Somewhere in the Space Police Galaxy, the HMS Ironwood rests at Space ouptost Tron-7 while awaiting further orders. Suddenley, three ships aproach from the blackness of space. As they approach, they are hailed by the Ironwood. The newly arrrived ships confirm the rumors: the Ironwoood is getting a new commander, a Admrial named Oswald Lyons...

Okay, now on to the real story. Earlier this year, I noticed a model called the Malevolence by a user named ADHO15 in the LDD section of this site. I downloaded the model, and seeing it was unavalible, I made it almost completely black, and buyable. I tinkered with it and created this from that ship:

The Ironwood, as I now call it, is on it's way from LEGO Desgin-by-Me. It has six engines, as seen here.

And here's the side view:

But that's not all! I also ordered Oswald's black space ship, the Avenger, shown here with some not avalible parts which I already have:

Plus two Imperial V-Wing's from Toys R Us.

The LDD models should be here by January, and the V-wings are comming (hopefully) soon!

Also, the model of the Tron-7 is avalible. (I it made using a template from LEGO.) The model will be bought sometime in 2011.

And, to finsh this very long post, I have created two pictures. The first is a shot of the Ironwood in space,

And the other is a recruitment poster.

Enjoy the pictuers, and I hope you like the ships!

P.S. Thank you ADHO15 for the orgianl Malevolence model. Without it, this would have never happened.

EDIT: I realized I forgot a pciture of Oswald Lyons. This isn't exactley correct, as that's not his head or hair. But it's the best I have.

Nice work on recoloring ADHO15's Malevolence, I would surely like to see this in briockform soon. Good job on the photo-editing too!

Cool models.

Thank you for your compliments. I really enjoyed working on this model. However, I almost didn't buy it: it was ethier this models now, or Diagon Alley later. While deciding, I saw Toys R Us had the Imperial V-Wing: I quickley decied that the LDD models would be most likely unavalible by the next time I had the cash. Diagon Alley would be avalbile for 2 years at least. (I based this idea off the Death Star from 2008, which is still buyable 2 yeas later.) And so, I bought the LDD models and 2 V-wings. I have a new picture here as well. The back and side shots needed to be updated, and the stats posted, so here they are in one go. Enjoy!

Okay, I know this is a very old post of mine, but I thought cerating a new topic would be silly if I already have one. And so, here is the bridge of the Ironwood in minfig scale.

The only parts missing from the one I have in real life is the two orange Bionicle ball pieces from the Home One)

Just think, if this is the size of the bridge, what's the minifig scale size of the ship?!?

This is a pretty cool theme you are making. I can't wait to see more!
