[MOC SHIPtember] Cargo Transport from Star Wars 1313

[Pepa Quin]

For SHIPtember, I decided to pay homage to the unfortunately canceled Star Wars 1313 game. The game looked awesome from

, but unfortunately that may be all we ever see of it.

The Imp class of light cargo freighters was produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. The base freighter design, like many CEC ships, was modular and came with many options. The 'Besther' model, named for the project lead, featured individualized cargo pods which could be customized to accommodate specific needs.

The Besther Imp XIV was made in the first production run and has faired decently in its 34 years of service. Many non-essential systems no longer function well or at all, and it's space-worthiness is in doubt, but it works well as a planetside-only cargo transport.

I got started a little late, but fortunately was able to build this ship within two weeks. It is 131.3 studs long, 42 wide and 19 bricks tall. Each of the 10 cargo pods along the sides is easily detachable.

Lastly, for anyone who couldn't view the video, here's a comparison shot between my model and the 'actual' ship:

Enjoy!

Amazing details all over the ship! I can barely remember seeing one of your creations that I really admired somewhere else but i simply cant remember.

Spot on! Great job!

[Saint]

WOW !!

[kermit]

Great build. Very big!

[Veynom]

I like it, particularly the head. I should maybe try using your technique on my Tantive IV. I suppose it is a variation of the Lowell sphere ?

[Gerechtigkeitsliga]

Very well designed. It looks really like an scaled model for a movie.

Even the pattern on the outside looks original to the picture.

Great moc.

Woww for me too! Nice job!

[Bob De Quatre]

Really nice rendition of the ship

There are a lot of studs exposed... but you couldn't have done otherwise.

The detaching cargo pods is a great detail!
