Yzalirk Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Ordered by Kawashita superiors, Wilhelm has launched an expedition to The Hamilton Belt to hear any transmissions for any alien activity. So far there has been no sign of activity in the area, so Wilhelm believes. Their old Grouper TX-51Z ship, armed with some classic plasma cannons on the sides is ready to deal with any hostiles that may pose a threat to Kawashita explorers. The Grouper, of course, is inspired by the "Goliath Grouper", an ancient specie of fish found on Earth. The ship may be slow but it sure is a juggernaut and is built to last... for a while.

Lind Whisperer Posted May 23, 2015 Does micro-scale count as a building style? Or does it have a cockpit inside it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yzalirk Posted May 23, 2015 Does micro-scale count as a building style? Or does it have a cockpit inside it? I'm confused by your first question but the two transparent bricks make up the cockpit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lind Whisperer Posted May 23, 2015 I'm confused by your first question but the two transparent bricks make up the cockpit. I thought we were supposed to stick to minifigure scale, but after consulting the rules, apparently there is no such restraint:There is no constraint on building style Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lady K Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Good job on your first LDD build! I like that shape and the ship design inspired by an ancient species of fish. Very nice! Edited May 23, 2015 by Lady K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pombe Posted May 24, 2015 What a great spaceship! Just like in the description, it looks rugged and tough. They just don't make them like that anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Sal Posted May 24, 2015 Nice rugged design! What part(s) did you use for the bottom of the hull? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the kind comments and I am glad you guys like it! @Big Sal - I used two of these to make the hull of the ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander Turtle Posted May 24, 2015 This is a nice little ship. I do think microscale is a good way to deal with how so many spacefaring things are just going to be massive in scale compared to minifigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
