Bob De Quatre Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Today's MOC is the mandalorian heavy fighter. Here is the lxf file I wanted to do a fighter with rotating wings, with studs on both sides... First the wings were simple, and after a few hours of modification I ended up with something that looks a lot like a B-wing. I love the B-wing so I don't mind, but it wasn't what I was aiming for in the first place. Quote
Bobsy Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Looks absolutely fantastic. Your work is getting better and better. This is an instantly recognisable Star Wars ship, and one that would fit into any collection. Not sure I'd class it as a heavy fighter though. It looks to have roughly the same mass as a TIE fighter, which is anything but. I can see it more as a dogfighter than a heavy weapons platform. Quote
purpleparadox Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) I agree that it looks a lot like a B-Wing. An AWESOME B-Wing, that is! If there's any of your models that I want to own, it's this one. It looks great! Edited August 24, 2012 by purpleparadox Quote
Mr Man Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 This is absolutely the best ship you've produced so far, it's absolutely fantastic . I'm not sure what else to say about it, other than how jealous I am with you . Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted August 24, 2012 Author Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks all. This is absolutely the best ship you've produced so far, it's absolutely fantastic . I'm not sure what else to say about it, other than how jealous I am with you . I build one every day, so statistically there should be one that is fantastic fantastic among them Jealous of me? there's no reason at all... Quote
Super Brick Collector Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 This is a fantastic build. Have you submitted to cuusoo? Quote
Wedge09 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Fantastic work, you have made another of this fantastic MOC Quote
-sigma- Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 This looks absolutely sweet. As a plus, I can see it chugging along next to the Mandalorian ship that we got in the last wave. The only thing, ONLY THING, that bugs is the two facts that it doesn't have a storage space like the mentioned ship and the cockpit isn't hinged, thus meaning it has to be taken off. (Unless I'm mistaken, but none of the pictures hinted or showed a storage compartment or a hinged cockpit.) Quote
DFOL Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 It's a bit quirky, but i like it a lot! I do agree with the comment that when compared with other (official) fighter models, this one can hardly be called a heavy fighter. But it sure looks like a fun model, i hope you're planning to build this one for real! Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 This is a fantastic build. Have you submitted to cuusoo? I don't plan to. I think cuuso is great for project like portal or space marines. Fantastic work, you have made another of this fantastic MOC Thank you Wedge09 This looks absolutely sweet. As a plus, I can see it chugging along next to the Mandalorian ship that we got in the last wave. The only thing, ONLY THING, that bugs is the two facts that it doesn't have a storage space like the mentioned ship and the cockpit isn't hinged, thus meaning it has to be taken off. (Unless I'm mistaken, but none of the pictures hinted or showed a storage compartment or a hinged cockpit.) I've been lazy for the hinged cockpit... At first the cockpit part was much longer, and a storage could have been added. But I was short on time since it's a daily MOC... so I had to skip details on this one It's a bit quirky, but i like it a lot! I do agree with the comment that when compared with other (official) fighter models, this one can hardly be called a heavy fighter. But it sure looks like a fun model, i hope you're planning to build this one for real! Sadly I can't built it for real, but go ahead if you want Quote
Brickscape Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 As the B-wing is my favorite OT ship, I definitely love this. Great work! Quote
Faefrost Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 I really like it. It reminds me a lot of he Republic Trooper player ship from SWTOR. Quote
DarthPotato Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 This looks great! I love the idea of a crossover between a Mandalorian starfighter and a B-Wing. And I can't build ships well so I admire people that can. Quote
YZF333 Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Hi! A really great design! Could you send me the lxf file? The link doesn´t work. Best Regards! Quote
YellowCorvette Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Nice model. This model reminds me for a B-Wing, and it's not a bad thing. Quote
